AB 544 Nevada Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions relating to certain licenses issued by the Division of Public and Behavioral Health of the Department of Health and Human Services. (BDR 40-1118)

AB 544 changes how certain health facility licenses expire. It revises Nevada law so that licenses issued by the Division of Public and Behavioral Health now expire exactly one year after their issuance date (instead of December 31 annually). This affects medical facilities and facilities for dependents that require these licenses. The bill also provides a transition: licenses valid on December 30, 2025, remain valid until their 2026 anniversary date, with the Division assisting licensees in determining that date.
