§610. Support and maintenance fund
All funds received by the Maine Veterans' Homes, including federal Veterans' Administration stipend funds, must be held in a permanent fund to be used as required by the chief executive officer for the support and maintenance of the homes. A percentage of these funds approved by the board of trustees must be placed in reserve for capital improvement expenditures. The board of trustees shall operate the homes, when constructed, as self-liquidating projects until all the bonds issued as provided by this chapter are retired. The Department of Health and Human Services may not modify its principles of reimbursement for long-term care facilities to specifically exclude reimbursement for the depreciation of the assets created with federal or state grants. [PL 2015, c. 397, §16 (AMD).]
The provisions of this section pertaining to the Department of Human Services' reimbursement of long-term care facilities for depreciation of assets created with federal or state grants do not apply to renovations undertaken by the Maine Veterans' Homes 120-bed Augusta nursing facility in accordance with a certificate of need application filed January 22, 2002. The Department of Health and Human Services shall amend its rules regarding reimbursement of long-term care facilities accordingly. Rules adopted pursuant to this section are routine technical rules as defined in Title 5, chapter 375, subchapter 2-A. [PL 2003, c. 3, §1 (NEW); PL 2003, c. 689, Pt. B, §6 (REV).]
