Summary
The bill mandates that nursing homes allocate at least three‑quarters of their nursing and residential‑care revenue to wages and benefits for direct‑care workers. Beginning in 2027, each facility must submit a yearly cost report to the Department of Health showing those expenditures. Non‑compliance could lead to corrective plans or loss of Medicaid participation.
