Cal. Health & Safety Code § 1733 — Home Health Agencies is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

Every home health agency for which a license has been issued, except a facility that is certified to participate either in the Medicare program under Title XVIII (42 U.S.C. Sec. 1395 et seq.) of the federal Social Security Act, or the medicaid program under Title XIX (42 U.S.C. Sec. 1396 et seq.) of the federal Social Security Act, or both, shall be periodically inspected by a duly authorized representative of the state department no less than once a year. Reports of each such inspection shall be prepared by the representative conducting it upon forms prepared and furnished by the state department and filed with the state department. Such inspection shall be for the purpose of ensuring that the provisions of this chapter and the rules and regulations of the department are being followed. The state department is directed to ensure by such inspection that the home health agency is providing high quality care to its patients in accordance with the orders of the patient’s physician.
