Bill > SF1566

This bill modifies the definitions of "nursing home" and "nursing home employer" in Minnesota state law. Specifically, the bill updates the definition of "nursing home" to explicitly include nursing homes and boarding care homes that are reimbursed under chapter 256R, which relates to medical assistance payment rates. The definition of "nursing home employer" is also revised to remove the specific reference to Medicaid-certified facilities reimbursed under chapter 256R, and instead simply refers to employers of nursing home workers in a nursing home as defined in the previous subdivision. These changes appear to provide more clarity and potentially broaden the scope of facilities and employers covered under the existing statute, which likely relates to workforce standards and regulations for nursing home workers in Minnesota. The modifications seem technical in nature, aiming to create more precise legal language around nursing home classifications and employment.
