Alabama HB230 makes the supplemental privilege assessment, secondary supplemental privilege assessment, and surcharge on nursing home beds permanent.

Alabama HB230 removes the sunset date for the supplemental privilege assessment, secondary supplemental privilege assessment, and surcharge on each bed in a nursing facility. These assessments, which are in addition to all other taxes and assessments, were previously set to expire on August 31, 2028. The bill ensures these assessments remain in effect indefinitely, providing a consistent revenue stream for the state. The assessments are levied on nursing facilities participating in the Medicaid program and are included in Medicaid per diem rates.
