This amendment modifies languages in the introduced budget to clarify that the deferral of an inflation adjustment for nursing facility rates in fiscal year 2016 was not intended to affect any future rebasing of nursing facility rates. The Department of Medical Assistance Services has interpreted the language as a perpetual deferral and this language corrects that interpretation. The deferral of the fiscal year 2016 inflation adjustment continues to affect the first year of the biennium; but the second year rates, under a scheduled rebasing, would not be affected by the 2016 deferral.
