Bill > HF702

This bill modifies existing law regarding property rate increases for specific nursing facilities in Minnesota. The legislation removes the sunset date (previously May 31, 2026) for property rate increases and eliminates a planned rate increase for a nursing facility in Fergus Falls. The bill specifically maintains property rate increases for three nursing facilities: one in St. Paul at 1415 Almond Avenue, which will receive a $10.65 increase; one in Duluth at 3111 Church Place, which will receive a $20.81 increase; and one in Chatfield at 1102 Liberty Street SE, which will receive a $21.35 increase, all effective January 1, 2025. By removing the sunset provision, the bill allows these rate increases to continue beyond the previously established end date. The effective date of the changes is July 1, 2025, which suggests the modifications will be implemented at the start of the next fiscal year. The bill appears to be a technical adjustment to nursing facility funding rates, likely responding to specific local needs or budgetary considerations.
