Facilities must determine within 5 business days whether the resident has a legal guardian or agent appointed through durable or medical power of attorney, and if so, notify that guardian or agent of the ballot request

The Health and Human Services Commission must conduct compliance audits covering at least 2.5% of licensed facilities within 45 days after each primary and general election for state and county officers
