2005 House Bill 5055 ↩

House Roll Call 346: Passed

To extend for one year the October 1, 2007 sunset on the “Michigan Medicaid Quality Assurance Assessment” (MMQAA) tax on nursing homes and hospital long-term care units; to include governmentally owned nursing homes in the assessment; and to revise the allocation of the revenue the tax generates. The MMQAA is a bed tax on health care providers that is used to generate more federal Medicaid matching funds, resulting in a net gain for some but not all of the providers.
