An Act relative to MassHealth

Summary

The measure amends Massachusetts law to prohibit the executive office from reducing health‑care payments to nursing facilities because they fail to meet a set number of care hours per patient per day. However, facilities whose Medicaid utilization rate is 80 % or higher are also exempt from any such payment reductions. The executive office must issue or update regulations to carry out the change.
