Bill overview
This bill requires long-term care facilities, such as nursing homes, to report data about COVID-19 cases and deaths among their residents. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services will then publish this information on the Nursing Home Compare website, broken down by state. This data will include demographic information like age, race, and language preference of residents. The goal is to provide more transparency about COVID-19 impacts in these facilities.
