Nursing facility property rate increases sunset and increases removed.

HF 702 amends Minnesota law to set specific property rate increases for four nursing facilities, removing an automatic expiration date (sunset) for these increases. The bill directly affects facilities in St. Paul ($10.65 increase), Duluth ($20.81), Chatfield ($21.35), and Fergus Falls ($38.56), all effective January 1, 2025. These increases are fixed dollar amounts and will remain in effect without a sunset provision. The changes take effect July 1, 2025, for the property payment rates.
