administrative deficiencies; cure period

SB 1233 requires Arizona state agencies (specifically the Department of Health Services, Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System, and Department of Economic Security) to give licensed or contracted facilities 72 hours to fix administrative issues before taking disciplinary or enforcement action. The bill directly affects facilities operating under these agencies, such as healthcare providers or service organizations holding state licenses. Key provisions mandate that agencies cannot penalize facilities solely for administrative deficiencies - like paperwork errors - without first allowing this 72-hour correction period. This policy change aims to prevent immediate penalties for minor, fixable issues while maintaining oversight.
