SB 6240: Nursing home facilities

Regulating nursing home facilities.

Summary

  • The direct care component must be regionally adjusted using county wide wage index information available through the United States Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor statistics rather than using the nonmetropolitan and metropolitan statistical areas. The requirement that the indirect care component be adjusted for nonmetropolitan and metropolitan statistical areas is removed.
