federal [supplementary] supplemental security income or public
assistance, or both. The director shall
provide for level of care payment as follows:
(1) Beginning

classified as facility type I, licensed developmental disabilities domiciliary
homes as defined under section 321-15.9, community care foster family homes as

If the operator does not provide the
quality of care consistent with the needs of the individual to the satisfaction
of the department, the department may remove the recipient to another facility.
The department shall handle abusive
practices under this section in accordance with chapter 91.
Nothing in this subsection shall allow the
director to remove a recipient from an adult residential care home or other
similar institution if the recipient does not desire to be removed and the
operator is agreeable to the recipient remaining, except where the recipient
requires a higher level of care than provided or where the recipient no longer
requires any domiciliary care."
