Referred to the Committee on Ways and Means, and in addition to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.

Bill 119 hr 1303, also known as the "Minimum Staffing Standards and Medicaid Payment Transparency Prohibition Act," aims to prevent the Secretary of Health and Human Services from enforcing minimum staffing standards for long-term care facilities and Medicaid institutional payment transparency reporting.

The bill specifically prohibits the Secretary from implementing, administering, or enforcing any provisions related to minimum staffing standards for long-term care facilities. This means that the government would not be able to require these facilities to maintain a certain level of staffing to ensure the well-being of residents.

Additionally, the bill also prohibits the Secretary from implementing, administering, or enforcing any provisions related to Medicaid institutional payment transparency reporting. This means that the government would not be able to require these facilities to report detailed information about their Medicaid payments, potentially limiting transparency and accountability in how these funds are being used. Overall, Bill 119 hr 1303 seeks to limit government oversight and regulation of long-term care facilities and Medicaid payments, potentially impacting the quality of care provided to residents and the transparency of how taxpayer dollars are being spent in these facilities.
