Supervision & ratios
During a review conducted on 03/11/2026 it was determined that: (1) the Administrator failed to ensure compliance with the current HM Plan; and (2) 12 months had elapsed since the effective date of the plan. The heightened monitoring plan for this operation included a specific ?planned end date? at the 12-month mark by which the operation was expected to meet all heightened monitoring criteria necessary to move out of active heightened monitoring to a phase of ?post plan monitoring?. As a direct result of the administrator?s failure to ensure timely compliance with the heightened monitoring plan, this operation is now unable to successfully move to post-plan monitoring. Furthermore, the operation?s ?planned end date? must now be revised, and the period of heightened monitoring must be extended. Further details of the administrator?s failure to ensure compliance include the following: -Operation failed to satisfy the conditions of the plan -Operation failed to demonstrate 6 months of successive compliance with the standard and contract requirements that led to heightened monitoring; and -Operation was unable to meet compliance with Medium-High or High weighted licensing citations, including having an open investigation.
HHSC 749.635(2) — AP CPA administrator responsibilities- Ensure that the operation complies with current heightened monitoring plans.
