(II)  A COMPREHENSIVE CARE FACILITY; OR

(III)  AN INTERMEDIATE CARE FACILITY --
MENTAL RETARDATION.

(2) "RELATED INSTITUTION" INCLUDES ANY
INSTITUTION IN PARAGRAPH (1) OF THIS SUBSECTION, AS
RECLASSIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME BY LAW.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived
without substantive change from the second,
third, and fourth clauses of former Article 43, §
568H(3).

In the introductory clause of paragraph (1) of
this subsection, the reference to licensing "by
the Department" is added for clarity.

Also in the introductory clause of paragraph (1)
of this subsection, the word "means" is
substituted for "include only", to avoid the use
of the defined term "includes", which is by way
of illustration and not a limitation.

In paragraph (l)(i) of this subsection, the
current classification "extended care facility"
is substituted for the obsolete reference
"nursing homes -- extended care". Similarly, in
paragraph (l)(ii) of this subsection, the current
classification "comprehensive care facility" is
substituted for the obsolete references
"intermediate care facilities -- long-term care
(Type A)" and "intermediate care facilities
personal care (Type B)". These substitutions are
based on paragraph (2) of this subsection.

Defined terms: "Department" § 1-101
"Includes"/"including" § 1-101

19-202. COMMISSION ESTABLISHED.

THERE IS - A STATE HEALTH SERVICES COST REVIEW
COMMISSION. THE COMMISSION IS AN INDEPENDENT COMMISSION
THAT FUNCTIONS IN THE DEPARTMENT.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the first clause
of the first sentence of former Article 43, §
568-I.

The word "State" is added to achieve uniformity
among the names of the entities that this article
governs.
