SB 464 – Certified Recovery Residences

• Revises the definition of Level IV certified recovery residences to clarify that residents may (rather than are required to) reside at the residence while receiving intensive outpatient care, and explicitly requires such residences to be staffed 24 hours a day
• Requires credentialing entities to revoke a certified recovery residence's certificate of compliance if the residence willfully, knowingly, or intentionally provides false or misleading information, adding a specific intent standard to the revocation trigger
• Removes the exemption that previously allowed licensed service providers under contract with a managing entity (as defined in s. 394.9082) from prohibitions on certain referral practices to or from recovery residences
• Effective date is July 1, 2025
• Sponsored by Senator Harrell, amending sections 397.311, 397.487, and 397.4873 of Florida Statutes
