Health facilities: nursing homes; personal needs allowance for nursing home residents; increase. Amends sec. 106 of 1939 PA 280 (MCL 400.106) & adds sec. 106d.

This bill proposes to increase the monthly personal needs allowance for residents of Michigan nursing homes from its current level to $90.00. The change directly affects low-income individuals who qualify for state medical assistance and are living in nursing facilities. By amending existing social welfare laws, the legislation ensures that this specific financial support is included in the protected basic maintenance level for eligible patients. The bill does not alter other eligibility requirements, such as income limits or asset thresholds, but updates the specific amount of money residents can keep for personal expenses.
