Nevada patient trust bonds.

What it is and who needs it.
What the patient trust bond actually covers
Care facilities often hold small sums of residents’ personal funds — spending money, allowances, trust accounts. Nevada requires a surety bond under NRS 449.065 so those funds are protected if the facility mishandles them. The bond is filed with the Division of Public and Behavioral Health at initial license and renewal.
The amount scales with the size of the facility by employee count: $5,000 for facilities with fewer than 7 employees, $25,000 for 7 to 25 employees, and $50,000 for more than 25 employees. The bond runs with the facility as principal and a surety company as surety.
A license is suspended by operation of law if the facility is no longer covered by the required bond (or an approved substitute deposit under NRS 449.067). It is a guarantee, not insurance for you — if the surety pays a valid claim for misused resident funds, you repay the surety. We confirm your tier and price it from $100, with one soft credit pull that never affects your score.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
E-sign & file with the Division. Pay online and receive the executed bond, ready to file with the Division of Public and Behavioral Health for your license or renewal. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the Division insists.
What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
One soft credit pull, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score.
