Financial Implications and the Burden of Compliance
 

Implementing forced EORs without addressing the associated financial responsibilities places an undue burden on families already grappling with caregiving challenges. Allocating the costs of mandatory background checks and the administrative tasks required for inputting and approving information to families raises significant financial concerns. Without appropriate provisions for funding and support, families are left to shoulder additional financial burdens, impeding their ability to access essential care services. To ensure equitable access and alleviate the financial strain on families, it is imperative to consider the provision of financial assistance or reimbursement mechanisms for these imposed compliance requirements.
