Sunset; Long-Term Care Facility Advisory Council; extending sunset year.

HB 1038 extends the expiration date of Oklahoma's Long-Term Care Facility Advisory Council from July 1, 2025, to July 1, 2026, under the Oklahoma Sunset Law. The council, composed of 13 members representing healthcare providers, facility operators, and the public, advises the State Commissioner of Health on long-term care services. It reviews care quality, facility standards, and regulatory practices under the Nursing Home Care Act, Residential Care Act, and Adult Day Care Act. This bill directly affects the council's continued operation and the long-term care facilities it oversees. The change does not alter the council's composition, duties, or funding.
