231D.18 Involuntary transfer.
1. If an adult day services program initiates the involuntary transfer of a participant and the action is not a result of a monitoring evaluation or complaint investigation by the department, and if the participant or participant’s legal representative contests the transfer, the following procedure shall apply:
a. The adult day services program shall notify the participant or participant’s legal representative, in accordance with the written contractual agreement, of the need to transfer and the reason for the transfer.
b. If, following the internal appeals process, the adult day services program upholds the transfer decision, the participant or participant’s legal representative may utilize other remedies authorized by law to contest the transfer.
2. The department, in consultation with affected state agencies and affected industry, professional, and consumer groups, shall establish by rule, in accordance with chapter 17A, procedures to be followed, including the opportunity for hearing, when the transfer of a participant results from a monitoring evaluation or complaint investigation conducted by the department.
