An Act To Ensure Data Reporting For Temporary Nurse Agencies

LD 1769 requires Maine's Department of Health and Human Services to annually summarize and submit to the legislature the annual reports temporary nurse agencies provide to the department. The summary must be delivered to the health and human services committee by January 1st each year. Temporary nurse agencies are directly affected as they must continue submitting their annual reports to the department, which are then aggregated for legislative review. The bill adds transparency by making this data available to lawmakers without changing the agencies' existing reporting requirements.
