What is this?

This is a regulatory record from Veterans Affairs Department — a rule, proposed rule, or notice. Regulations carry the force of law once final, and often invite public comment before that point.

Why does it matter?

Regulations are usually what actually binds you, more than statutes are. This is where an agency states the requirement, the effective date, and whether there is still a window to respond.

Description

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend its regulations to update the reference to the required resident assessment tool for State homes that receive per diem from VA for providing nursing home care to veterans. The proposed rule would require State nursing homes receiving per diem from VA to use the most recent version of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Resident Assessment Instrument/Minimum Data Set (MDS), which is version 3.0. This will ensure that the standard used to assess veterans is the same as the standard applicable to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries.
