Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
264:1 Residential Care and Health Facility Licensing; Deemed Licensed. Amend RSA 151:5-b to read as follows:
151:5-b Deemed Licensed.
I. Any facility or home health agency certified under Title XVIII or XIX of the Social Security Act, as amended, shall submit a completed license application, or license renewal form, together with the appropriate fee. Such facility or agency shall be deemed licensed under this chapter and shall be exempt from inspections carried out under RSA 151:6-a. This section shall only apply to the activities or portions of the facility or agency certified under Title XVIII or XIX of the Social Security Act, as amended.
II. Any laboratory certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C. section 263(a), shall submit a completed license application, or license renewal form, together with the appropriate fee. Such facility or agency shall be deemed licensed under this chapter and shall be exempt from inspections carried out under RSA 151:6-a. This paragraph shall only apply to the activities or portions of the laboratory or agency certified under CLIA that received compliance or accreditation inspections. This paragraph shall not apply to Provider-Performed Microscopy (PPM) or CLIA waived laboratories.
264:2 Loans for Lead Hazard Remediation Projects. RSA 130-A:15-a, IV is repealed and reenacted to read as follows:
IV. The department shall adopt rules, pursuant to RSA 541-A, to establish the eligibility criteria, application process, and maximum loan amounts pursuant to this section. The rules shall also include a requirement that the lender record a lien for the full amount of the loan at the time the loan is issued for any property under this section. In this section, "loan" means a loan for a lead hazard remediation project. The lien shall be in the name of the lender and the state of New Hampshire. The lender shall service the loan in accordance with its standard practices. If the borrower fails to pay the loan as required by the loan documents, the lender shall mail a written notice of default to the borrower at his or her last known address, with a copy to the department. If the default is not cured, the lender may foreclose the lien in accordance with terms of the loan documents and state law. To the extent that the foreclosure proceeds do not cover at least 80 percent of the unpaid principal balance of the loan plus interest and reasonable collection expenses as provided under RSA 130-A:15-a, I, the lender may apply to the state for payment of the guaranty for any such deficiency. The state shall pay the guaranty in accordance with the terms of the loan guaranty program.
