A Pennsylvania Patient Trust Bond is a type of surety bond required for any person or business entity that operates a long-term care facility in the state of Pennsylvania. This bond is required by the Pennsylvania Department of Health (DOH) to protect residents of long-term care facilities from financial losses due to fraud, theft, or other misconduct by the facility’s owners or operators.

The amount of the Patient Trust Bond is determined by the DOH based on the applicant’s financial condition and the number of residents the facility anticipates caring for. However, the bond amount must be at least $10,000. If you are a business that operates a long-term care facility in Pennsylvania, you are required to obtain a Patient Trust Bond. Failure to obtain a bond can result in serious penalties.
