Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services relating to "Medicare and Medicaid Programs: Minimum Staffing Standards for Long-Term Care Facilities and Medicaid Institutional Payment Transparency Reporting".
H.J. Res. 139 is a congressional resolution seeking to disapprove a rule issued by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) on May 10, 2024. The rule would have established minimum staffing requirements for long-term care facilities and required transparency in Medicaid payment reporting. If passed, this resolution would block the rule from taking effect, preventing these new staffing and reporting requirements from being implemented. The bill directly affects long-term care facilities and Medicaid programs by halting the enforcement of these specific standards.
