S 2776 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Makes various changes to regulation of health care service firms.

This bill (S 2776) requires certain firms that place caregivers for non-medical home services to register as "Health Care Service Firms" with New Jersey's Division of Consumer Affairs. It directly affects employment agencies and similar businesses that arrange companion, health care, or personal care services for people with disabilities or those aged 60+ in their homes - excluding licensed home health or hospice agencies. Key provisions include mandating accreditation within 12 months of registration, requiring annual financial reports, and imposing tiered audit requirements based on firm revenue (e.g., firms earning over $5 million in Medicaid funds must submit audits every three years). The bill aims to increase oversight of these providers through standardized financial and operational reporting.
