Are You Considering Applying for the Moratorium Exception?

Act Now to Tap Into the $1.47M in Available State Funding

 

Once again the state legislature has funded the nursing home moratorium exception process. The $1.47 million in appropriated funding presents a great opportunity for providers to address upgrades and improvements in their facilities.

The moratorium application is a lengthy one - requiring careful plant assessment, financial analysis and creative solutions. The RFP has been released by the MN Department of Health, so now is the time to look at your physical environment and consider how it can be repositioned to support your service programs, marketability, resident quality of life and bottom line goals.

While new legislation has extended the timeline for proposal due dates, remember these key dates:

•  Letter of Intent to file an application is due October 17, 2008.
•  Application for Moratorium Exception is due December 11, 2008.
•  Final approval by Commissioner is due by April 6, 2009.
