ARTICLE 4 LIQUIDATION PROCEEDINGS

33-45-9. Provisions of this chapter not subject to waiver.

No act, agreement, or statement of any resident, or of an individual purchasing continuing care or limited continuing care for a resident, under any continuing care agreement to furnish care to the resident shall constitute a valid waiver of any provision of this chapter intended for the benefit or protection of the resident or the individual purchasing care for the resident; provided, however, that nothing in this Code section shall be construed to prohibit a continuing care agreement from providing for a resident or prospective resident to agree to arbitration prior to bringing any action pursuant to Code Section 33-45-12.

(Code 1981, §33-45-8, enacted by Ga. L. 1990, p. 1817, § 1; Code 1981, §33-45-9, as redesignated by Ga. L. 2011, p. 315, § 1/SB 166.)

The 2011 amendment, effective July 1, 2011, redesignated former Code Section 33-45-8 as present Code Section 33-45-9, and inserted "continuing care or limited continuing" and "continuing care" near the beginning, and added the proviso at the end.
