LD 763 Maine Senate · 132nd Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act To Improve Long-Term Care By Providing Funding For Nursing Facilities

This bill transfers $50 million from Maine's unappropriated General Fund surplus to the Department of Health and Human Services' Nursing Facility Reform Transition Fund. The one-time funding directly supports nursing facilities by covering specific rate components for their operations. It does not create new regulations but allocates existing state funds to address financial needs within the nursing care system. The funding is designated for the 2025-2026 fiscal year only, with no ongoing annual appropriations.
