What’s in it
AI summary Nursing facilities would no longer be allowed to include certain costs like lobbying, association dues, or employee expenses in their financial reports. However, they can still include some professional and legal fees if those costs are directly related to taking care of patients. The department of health and human services will create new rules to manage these changes.1
