The contract shall state in bold capital letters of not less than 10-point type that no certified facility may require as a condition of admission, either in its contract of admission or by oral promise prior to signing the contract, that residents remain in private pay status for a specified period of time. (b) No contract of admission may require notice of a resident’s intent to convert to Medi-Cal status prior to the date of the resident’s application for Medi-Cal status. This subdivision does not preclude the facility from requesting notice from a resident who has been admitted.
