As you know, the heightened monitoring plans for your operation included a specific ?planned end date? at the 12-month mark by which your operation was expected to meet all heightened monitoring criteria necessary to move out of active heightened monitoring to a phase of ?post plan monitoring?. As a direct result of the administrator?s failure to ensure timely compliance with heightened monitoring plans, your operation is now unable to successfully move to post-plan monitoring. Furthermore, your operation?s ?planned end date? must now be revised, and the period of heightened monitoring must be extended. Further details of the failure of your operation?s administrator to ensure compliance include the following: - Operation was unable to meet compliance with Medium-High or High weighted licensing citations, including having an open investigation(s). Finding: 748.535(2) ? The licensed administrator must ensure the operation complies with current heightened monitoring plans.
