AI Summary
This bill modifies the existing law regarding grant payments for nursing home care in Tennessee by allowing these payments to be made either monthly or quarterly, directly to the individual receiving care or their legally authorized representative. The key change is that the grant payments cannot be assigned to or paid directly to the nursing home, ensuring that the funds are directed to the individual or their designated representative. The bill specifies that these payments will be sent to the person at their place of residence, maintaining the individual's control over their care funds. The changes will take effect on July 1, 2025, with the stated purpose of supporting public welfare by providing more flexible payment options for nursing home care grants.
