Text

(a)
The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(1)
In continuing care contracts, providers offer a wide variety of living accommodations and care programs for an indefinite or extended number of years in exchange for substantial payments by residents.
(2)
The annual reporting and reserve requirements for each continuing care provider should include a report that summarizes the provider’s recent and
projected performance in a form useful to residents, prospective residents, and the department.
(3)
Certain providers enter into “life care contracts” or similar contracts with their residents. Periodic actuarial studies that examine the actuarial financial condition of these providers will help to assure their long-term financial soundness.
(b)
Each provider shall annually file with the department a report that shows certain key financial indicators for the provider’s past five years, based on the provider’s actual experience, and for the upcoming five years, based on the provider’s projections. Providers shall file their key indicator reports in the manner required by Section 1792.9 and in a form prescribed by the department.
(c)
Each provider that has entered into Type A contracts shall file with the department an
actuary’s opinion as to the actuarial financial condition of the provider’s continuing care operations in the manner required by Section 1792.10.
