Bill > HF1272

This bill modifies the legal definitions related to nursing homes and nursing home employers in Minnesota statutes. Specifically, the bill updates the definition of "nursing home" to explicitly include facilities reimbursed under chapter 256R, which relates to medical assistance payment rates. The definition now covers both nursing homes licensed under chapter 144A and boarding care homes licensed under sections 144.50 to 144.56, with the added specification that they must be reimbursed under chapter 256R. Similarly, the bill changes the definition of "nursing home employer" to refer to employers in a nursing home as defined in the updated subdivision 7, removing the previous language about Medicaid certification and reimbursement under chapter 256R. These changes appear to clarify and standardize the legal terminology surrounding nursing home facilities and their employers, potentially ensuring more precise classification and regulation of such establishments.
