“Adult living facilities are crucial to the physical and emotional well-being of New Jersey seniors. Bolstering these services is a win-win for both patients and their families,” said Singer (R-30). “With increased Medicaid support, these facilities will be in a better position to offer more services and specialized care, including nursing, nutrition, medication management, and both physical and behavioral therapy.”

Singer’s bill (S-405) would codify the existing Medicaid per diem rate for assisted living facilities, comprehensive personal care homes, and assisted living programs.

Beginning on July 1, 2023 and in each subsequent fiscal year, assisted living facilities, comprehensive personal care homes, and assisted living programs will receive a per diem rate of no less than $114, $104, and $94, respectively.
