Veterans' skilled nursing facility.

HB 82 creates a Wyoming veterans' skilled nursing facility to provide care for honorably discharged veterans, National Guard members disabled on duty, and their spouses, with these groups receiving admission preference. It also allows admission for "gold star" families (dependents of service members who died in action) under specific conditions. The bill establishes a special revenue account to accept federal funding, donations, and loans for the facility’s design, construction, and operation, while requiring compliance with U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs rules and payment rates aligned with VA grant-in-aid standards. All operations must follow federal and state regulations for skilled nursing care.
