Housing support supplementary services rates provided for certain facilities.

HF 1579 establishes a new supplementary payment rate for specific housing providers serving vulnerable populations. It requires agencies to negotiate an additional $975 per month (capped at this amount, including inflation adjustments) for facilities providing 24/7 supervised housing to unsheltered individuals with complex health needs (including substance use, mental illness, or physical conditions). These facilities must offer private dwellings in the Twin Cities metro area (100 beds, operating since 2020) or central Minnesota (48 beds, opening after 2025), with all beds dedicated to this population. The rate applies starting July 1, 2025, and is supplemental to existing payment rates.
