NY A06034

Amends the Public Health Law to expand the definition of "facility" under the temporary operator program to include any hospital (removing the "general" limitation) and diagnostic and treatment centers, in addition to adult care facilities.

Modifies the definition of "established operator" to apply to operators of any facility covered under the expanded scope, rather than limiting it to specific facility types.

Broadens the definition of "improper delegation of management authority" to apply to all facilities covered under the program, not just general hospitals.

Updates references throughout the statute to use the broader term "facility" instead of specific facility type designations, creating a more uniform regulatory framework for the temporary operator program.
