Current as of January 01, 2023 | Updated by FindLaw Staff

(a) Each provider shall include in its liquid reserve a reserve for its long-term debt obligations in an amount equal to the sum of all of the following:

(1) All regular principal and interest payments, as well as credit enhancement premiums, paid by the provider during the immediately preceding fiscal year on account of any fully amortizing long-term debt owed by the provider. If a provider has incurred new long-term debt during the immediately preceding fiscal year, the amount required by this paragraph for that debt is 12 times the provider's most recent monthly payment on the debt.

(2) Facility rental or leasehold payments, and any related payments such as lease insurance, paid by the provider during the immediately preceding fiscal year.

(3) All payments paid by the provider during the immediately preceding fiscal year on account of any debt that provides for a balloon payment. If the balloon payment debt was incurred within the immediately preceding fiscal year, the amount required by this paragraph for that debt is 12 times the provider's most recent monthly payment on the debt made during the fiscal year.

(b) If any balloon payment debt matures within the next 24 months, the provider shall submit with its annual report a plan for refinancing the debt or repaying the debt with existing assets.

(c) When principal and interest payments on long-term debt are paid to a trust whose beneficial interests are held by the residents, the department may waive all or any portion of the debt service reserve required by this section. The department shall not waive any debt service reserve requirement unless the department finds that the waiver is consistent with the financial protections imposed by this chapter.
