Summary
Existing law requires specified people, known as mandated reporters, to report cases of elder or dependent adult abuse, as defined. Existing law requires mandated reporters, after reporting the abuse by telephone, to send written reports to specified entities containing prescribed information. This bill would authorize the required reports to be submitted through a confidential Internet reporting tool, if the county or long-term care ombudsman implements such a system, and would require a county or long-term care ombudsman program that chooses to implement this system to report specified information to specified policy committees of the Legislature one year after full implementation. This bill would incorporate additional changes in Section 15630.1 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, proposed by SB 33, to be operative only if SB 33 and this bill are both chaptered and become effective on or before January 1, 2012, and this bill is chaptered last.
