Tennessee creates conservatorship review task force

Beginning July 1, 2025, Tennessee has a nine-member task force to review conservatorships, which involve court-appointed help managing someone's affairs. Appointments are authorized as soon as the act becomes law. The group includes five state officials or their representatives and four public members appointed by the governor. It reviews resources, education, central record tracking, fraud and abuse detection, and public guardianship capacity. It also reviews whether Tennessee needs professional conservators, an independent conservator panel, or a central oversight office. The task force meets at least quarterly and reports findings and recommendations by December 31, 2025, and annually thereafter. Reports go to the Department of Disability and Aging and the Administrative Office of the Courts. State agencies must help when asked; members receive no pay or expense reimbursement, and no specific funding amount is stated. Participating agencies must follow state and federal health privacy laws, including HIPAA; disclosure requires the person's prior approval.
