Bill > SB00850

This bill proposes to modify existing state statutes to implement a value-based payment system for Medicaid reimbursement to nursing homes. In a value-based payment system, nursing homes would be reimbursed by Medicaid not just based on the number of services provided, but on the quality of care they deliver to residents. This approach aims to incentivize nursing homes to focus on patient outcomes, overall care quality, and resident well-being, rather than simply providing a high volume of services. The bill represents a shift from traditional fee-for-service models to a more performance-driven approach in healthcare reimbursement, with the ultimate goal of improving the standard of care for nursing home residents who rely on Medicaid funding.
