State owes nursing homes $55M for unintended RN staffing requirements

Connecticut owes its nursing homes $55 million in unexpected Medicaid reimbursements after enforcing staffing requirements beyond what were laid out in its 2021 staffing mandate. The state’s Department of Social Services reported the figure to the Legislature last week — it was at least 55 times larger than what had been budgeted for the year.
