State House
Annapolis MD 21401
Dear Mr. President:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed Senate Bill 180 - Continuing Care Communities - Direct Admissions Into
Comprehensive Care Nursing Bed - Repeal of Abrogation Provision.
This bill repeals the June 30, 2002 termination date for provisions that allow
continuing care retirement communities to have direct admissions to their nursing
home beds and still retain their Certificate of Need exemption.
House Bill 321, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me,
accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate
Bill 180.
Sincerely,
Parris N. Glendening
Governor
Senate Bill No. 180
AN ACT concerning
Continuing Care Communities - Direct Admissions Into Comprehensive
Care Nursing Bed - Repeal of Abrogation Provision
FOR the purpose of repealing the abrogation provision relating to definitions for
health planning and development that apply to certain health care facilities;
repealing the abrogation provision relating to provisions that allow certain
continuing care communities to admit subscribers directly to a comprehensive
care nursing bed; and generally relating to direct admissions into
comprehensive care nursing beds in continuing care communities.
BY repealing and reenacting, without amendments,
Article - Health - General
Section 19-114 and 19-124
Annotated Code of Maryland
(2000 Replacement Volume and 2001 Supplement)
