§ 3605-b. Registration of licensed home care services agencies. 1. (a)
  Notwithstanding  any  provision of law to the contrary, no licensed home
  care services agency (LHCSA) licensed  pursuant  to  section  thirty-six
  hundred  five  of  this  article  shall  be  operated,  provide  nursing
  services, home health aide  services,  or  personal  care  services,  or
  receive reimbursement from any source for the provision of such services
  during  any  period  of  time  on  or  after January first, two thousand
  nineteen, unless it has registered with the  commissioner  in  a  manner
  prescribed by the department.
(b)  A  LHCSA  that fails to submit a complete and accurate set of all
  required registration materials  by  the  deadline  established  by  the
  commissioner  shall be required to pay a fee of five hundred dollars for
  each month or part thereof that the LHCSA is in default.  A  LHCSA  that
  failed to register in the prior year by the deadline of the current year
  shall  not be permitted to register for the upcoming registration period
  unless it submits any unpaid late fees.
(c) The department shall post on its public  website  a  list  of  all
  LHCSAs,  which  shall  indicate  the current registration status of each
  LHCSA.
(d) The department shall institute proceedings to revoke  the  license
  of any LHCSA that fails to register for two annual registration periods,
  whether  or  not such periods are consecutive. The department shall have
  the discretion to pursue revocation of the license of a LHCSA on grounds
  that it evidences a pattern of late  registration  over  the  course  of
  multiple years.
