By unanimous consent the Senate

Resolutions
Senator Hollier entered the Senate
Chamber.
Senator MacGregor moved that consideration
of the following resolutions be postponed for today:
Senate
Resolution No. 30
Senate
Resolution No. 38
Senate
Resolution No. 49
The motion prevailed.
Senator McBroom offered the following
concurrent resolution:
Senate
Concurrent Resolution No. 11.
A
concurrent resolution to urge the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to
promptly approve a variance regarding shared bathroom facilities at the D.J.
Jacobetti Home for Veterans.
Whereas,
The D.J. Jacobetti Home for Veterans provides a home-like environment that
meets a range of care needs, including skilled nursing care. Former service
members choose the D.J. Jacobetti Home for Veterans for the unique environment
it provides, which includes the comradery gained by living with other veterans.
Because this population is predominantly male, it differs significantly from
most skilled nursing environments; and
Whereas,
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) requires skilled nursing
facilities to equip each resident room with its own bathroom. If a facility
wants to provide shared bathrooms, CMS must approve a variance, an exemption
from these federal regulations; and
Whereas,
105 of the 186 beds at the D.J. Jacobetti Home for Veterans, all occupied by
male residents, do not meet this bathroom requirement because they offer shared
bathroom facilities. This means they are currently ineligible to be dually
certified for Medicare and Medicaid like the other 81 beds; and
Whereas,
There are times when a veteran eligible for Medicare or Medicaid benefits seeks
placement in this facility, but the only available beds are non-certified.
Veterans face the difficult position of choosing between receiving only partial
benefits to be able to stay at the D. J. Jacobetti Home for Veterans and being
able to use all of their entitled benefits, a right they have earned through
their service to our country; and
Whereas, The advantages gained by allowing veterans to
fully utilize the health benefits available to them by approving a variance
from CMS bathroom requirements far outweigh any potential issues. Veterans
deserve to be able to live where they choose without sacrificing any of their
health benefits; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives
concurring), That we urge the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to
promptly approve a variance regarding shared bathroom facilities at the D.J.
Jacobetti Home for Veterans; and be it further
Resolved,
That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Administrator of the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Director of the Michigan
Department of Health and Human Services, and the Director of the Michigan
Veterans Affairs Agency.
Senator MacGregor moved that the
rule be suspended.
The motion prevailed, a majority
of the members serving voting therefor.
The question being on the
adoption of the concurrent resolution,
Senator
MacGregor moved that the concurrent resolution be referred to the Committee on
Families, Seniors, and Veterans.
The motion prevailed
