The report from the Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS), the

Attorney General’s Office (AGO) and the Office of the Insurance Commissioner

(OIC) has been released to the Legislature. The report is entitled “Addressing a

Regulatory Oversight plan for Continuing Care Retirement Communities in

Washington State” and represents over 9 months of work by the agencies and

stakeholders, including WACCRA and LeadingAge WA. 

A copy of the report can be found by clicking here.

As a reminder, the report and WACCRA’s recommendations are focused 

on residents in Independent Living within CCRCs; the residents in higher levels of care already have consumer and other protections through state 

and federal regulations.
