From the McGuireWoods law firm:
By October 16, 2016, healthcare providers and other covered entities must publish and disseminate nondiscrimination notices, including disclosures that they provide language assistance services for individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP). Public disclosure is an area easily missed and one many providers may not have prepared to address. To assist, this legal alert describes the Section 1557 notice requirements as well as the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office for Civil Rights (OCR) sample notifications and taglines that providers can leverage to meet these obligations.
