The Food and Consumer Safety Bureau is responsible for administering and enforcing the Iowa Food Code (Iowa Code Chapter 137F) by conducting food safety inspections at food establishments (grocery stores, restaurants, bars, farmers markets, home bakeries, convenience stores, etc.) and food processing plants. The purpose of the Iowa Food Code is to 'safeguard the public health and provide to consumers, food that is safe, unadulterated and honestly prepared.' The Food Code is based upon food safety recommendations developed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), in consultation with representatives from the food industry and regulators, and focuses on public health and the prevention of foodborne illness.

Jurisdiction

The Administrative Hearings Division of DIA conducts administrative proceedings for nearly all State agencies and some local government agencies. While the division is required to conduct certain contested case proceedings by statute or administrative rule, it is also authorized under section 10A.801(5) of Iowa Code to conduct any proceeding for any governmental entity on a contract basis.

The majority of the division's cases are conducted for the Iowa Department of Human Services and the Iowa Department of Transportation.

The Health Facilities Division is the designated state survey and certification agency, responsible for state licensure and federal certification of Medicare and Medicaid programs and other health care providers and suppliers operating in the state of Iowa. DIA provides oversight for nursing facilities, skilled nursing facilities, residential care facilities, intermediate care facilities for the intellectually disabled, hospitals, hospices, home health agencies, programs and facilities caring for children, assisted living programs, and elder group homes.

Survey teams from the division conduct unannounced on-site inspections at health care facilities to assess the quality of care and services provided to clients, patients, residents, and tenants. If problems are discovered during an inspection, the division can initiate corrective and/or disciplinary action to assure a facility's compliance with State and federal rules. Health Facilities Division personnel also investigate complaints alleging improper care or treatment of patients, residents, and tenants in licensed and certified entities.

The Investigations Division audits health care facilities, and conducts criminal, civil, and administrative investigations of fraud and misconduct. Staff within the division work closely with other State and local partners in identifying fraud, waste, and abuse, and where appropriate, forward cases to federal, State, and local officials for prosecution.

Investigations Division Units

• Abuse Coordinating Unit—Assists with the detection, investigation and prosecution of civil, administrative dependent adult abuse investigations in health care facilities.
• Economic Fraud Control Unit—Investigates recipient public assistance fraud and food assistance trafficking. Investigates the transfer or assignment of a legal or equitable interest in property from a Medicaid transferor to a transferee for less than fair market value.
• Human Services Audits Unit—Performs expenditure audits of local Iowa Department of Human Services (DHS) offices to determine eligibility for federal reimbursements and to ensure compliance with State and federal funding requirements. Audits also are performed at residential care facilities, nursing facilities, and residential and intermediate care facilities for the intellectually disabled, to ensure that residents’ funds are being properly maintained. The audits are used to verify that Medicaid reimbursement procedures meet all applicable government requirements.
• Medicaid Fraud Control Unit—Investigates allegations of fraud committed by providers against the Medicaid program and fraud in the administration of the Medicaid program. Additionally, investigates abuse/neglect and other crimes committed upon residents in care facilities or related programs that receive funding from the Medicaid program.
• Professional Standards Unit—Investigates licensed professionals for the Professional Licensure Bureau of the Iowa Department of Public Health.
• Public Assistance Debt Recovery Unit—Investigates and initiates collections of overpayment debts owed to DHS.

Four units are attached to the department, for administrative support purposes. Each unit, like DIA's major divisions, has Iowa Code-mandated duties and responsibilities.

Child Advocacy Board

The Child Advocacy Board ensures that the foster care system is working to place each Iowa foster child in a permanent home. In addition, CAB administers the State's Court-Appointed Special Advocate Program (CASA), which is designed to protect the rights of Iowa’s foster children in all court-related activities.

Employment Appeal Board

The three-member Employment Appeal Board is appointed by the governor and serves as the final administrative law forum for State and federal unemployment benefit appeals. The board also hears appeals of rulings of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and rulings of the Iowa Public Employees Retirement System (IPERS). The three members of the board are appointed to represent employers, employees, and the general public. In addition to unemployment cases, the board hears appeals involving peace officer issues and contractor registration requirements. The board receives 96 percent of its funding from the federal government based on the number of appeals heard and the time taken to render a decision.
