Calculation of border city nursing facility rate adjustments clarified.

Summary

The bill lets nonprofit nursing facilities in the Minnesota border cities of Breckenridge and Moorhead apply each year for an add‑on to their external fixed‑costs payment rate. The add‑on is calculated as the difference between the median payment rate of the lowest case‑mix classification in adjacent out‑of‑state cities and the facility’s own lowest‑case‑mix rate. It seeks to ensure these border facilities receive funding comparable to nearby out‑of‑state providers.
