Michigan Faces Nearly $1.5 Billion In Medicare-Funded Nursing Home Cuts Over 10 Years, Placing 1,800 Jobs In Jeopardy
An American Health Care Association (AHCA) analysis of a pending U.S. House health reform bill, HR 3200, finds seniors in Michigan requiring nursing and rehabilitative care will face funding cuts of $1.5 billion over the next 10 years. This equals the 10th highest state cut across the nation. These cuts are in addition to a recently-enacted Medicare regulatory change cutting Medicare-funded nursing home care by $12 billion during the same time period.
