Laws, Rules, and Regulations for Long Term Care Facilities

Code of Federal Regulations

The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) is a codification of the general and permanent rules published in the Federal Register by the Executive departments and agencies of the Federal Government. Entries are taken directly from the rulemaking authority citation provided by Federal agencies in their regulations. To go to the sections of the CFR associated with a specific health care entity, click on the links provided in the table. You are reminded to use your back button to return to this site.

State Responsibilities and Legal Authorization

Each division within the state is authorized to perform its responsibilities when a state law is passed by the Indiana General Assembly and signed by the Governor. You can view and print the state laws and rules authorizing state licensure surveys of comprehensive and residential long term care facilities, and intermediate facilities for the mentally retarded by clicking on the links below.

Please note that the Indiana Administrative Code (IAC) section will take you to the IAC Title page of interest (in this case, all are Title 410). From the title page, select the article of interest. For example, the Residential Long Term Care facilities reference is 410 IAC 16.2, so 16.2 is the article you would choose. Because the articles on this web site are in Wordperfect format, we have decided to link to the title page and allow each person to open the individual articles of interest. Therefore, remember the article number of interest, and use the back button to return to this site.
