Score 55PRIMARYregulatoryState legislature

Summary

Oregon SB 1532 was signed by the Governor on March 10, 2026, and took effect immediately as an emergency measure. The law adds licensing-condition requirements for residential care and long-term care facilities facing immediate-jeopardy findings, directs the Oregon Department of Human Services to create a model consent form for electronic monitoring devices in resident rooms, and mandates a differentiated Medicaid payment rate model for attendant care agencies whose direct support professionals live with clients. The Oregon Health Authority and DHS must achieve full compliance with specified provisions of Oregon Laws 2025 chapter 619 by January 1, 2027.

What this may mean

Residential care facilities and LTC facilities in Oregon face new procedural requirements when a preliminary or substantiated immediate-jeopardy finding is made, including conditions that may be imposed on their licenses. Oregon Medicaid payment rates for attendant care agencies will shift to a differentiated model based on whether direct support professionals reside with clients, affecting agency reimbursement structures. The electronic-monitoring consent form requirement creates a new documentation obligation for residential care facilities.
