36-410. County standards and guidelines; delegation
A. The director shall provide counties with nonbinding guidelines for their use in establishing contract standards for adult foster care providers that do not provide services pursuant to chapter 29, article 2 of this title. These nonbinding guidelines shall include standards for the self-administration of drugs that the foster care provider shall follow in conjunction with home health services and outpatient services.
B. The director shall adopt rules that the counties or the Arizona health care cost containment system administration shall use in prescribing minimum standards for adult foster care providers that provide services pursuant to chapter 29, article 2 of this title. The director shall conform these rules with federally approved applicable standards for adult foster care homes. The director shall delegate the authority to enforce these rules to each county that accepts this delegation or to the Arizona health care cost containment system administration. The department shall monitor an adult foster care program to ensure compliance with department rules. If a county or the Arizona health care cost containment system administration does not accept the delegation, the department shall certify and monitor an adult foster care home pursuant to section 36-409 if that home seeks to participate in the Arizona long-term care system pursuant to chapter 29, article 2 of this title.
