Summary

HB3390 requires the Oklahoma Department of Human Services (DHS) to update and maintain its Provider Search website for certain Home and Community Based services, including the Advantage Waiver, Living Choice, Medically Fragile Waiver, and State Plan Personal Care (SPPC). The bill expands what must be displayed on that website so that families and consumers can more easily compare providers and review quality-related information. Under the bill, the website must include a rating system established by DHS or another accredited licensing agency, inspection reports, substantiated complaints, administrator information, and a form for reporting issues with an agency. It also requires agencies to update their information annually. The bill is set to take effect on November 1, 2026.

Impact

The bill would create a new statutory requirement in Title 63 directing DHS to maintain a more detailed public provider search portal for home- and community-based service agencies. It would affect agencies serving waiver and personal care populations by requiring annual information updates and by making ratings, inspections, complaints, and administrator details publicly available, thereby increasing transparency and consumer access to provider oversight information.

Sentiment

The available committee history shows strong support and no recorded opposition. In the House Appropriations and Budget Human Services Subcommittee, the bill passed 4-0 as amended by committee substitute, and the transcript reflects no debate before the vote. Overall, the bill appears to have been received favorably as a consumer-information and accountability measure.

Contention

There is little evidence of substantive contention in the available materials. The only notable procedural point is that the bill was amended by committee substitute before receiving a do-pass recommendation, which suggests some refinement of the proposal, but no specific objections were raised in the transcript. The likely policy emphasis is on transparency and oversight rather than on expanding or reducing eligibility for services.
