(d) If an entity enters into an agreement to provide care for life or for more than one year to a person under 60 years of age in return for consideration, and the agreement includes the provision of services to that person after age 60, when the person turns 60 years of age, the promising entity shall comply with all the requirements imposed by this chapter.
