    So wait, is the conservative narrative now that cases are being undercounted? Quite a 180 if true but welcome to the resistance.

    Hochul quashes enforcement of NY safe staffing law, chronically broke nursing home chains sue NY to prevent the loss of billions in potentially lost profits.

    NY pols still shielding nursing homes from accountability.

    WHAT HOCHUL NEGLECTED TO MENTION was the extraordinary 133-page lawsuit that 334 of New York’s nursing homes had just filed in federal court against the state’s health commissioner, demanding the safe staffing law be struck down on cons utional grounds. The nursing homes allege that the law cons utes an “uncons utional taking of Plaintiffs’ private property for a public purpose.” If this rationale strikes you as preposterous, given that Medicare and Medicaid supply 82 percent of the nursing home industry’s alleged “private property,” it gets even crazier over the following pages. The nursing homes’ lawyers inexplicably lay out in specific detail the size and scope of the profits that would be “confiscated”—variations on which the complaint invokes 110 times!—under the new law.


    Taken together, the homes claim that if the new law had been in effect in 2019, the government would have clawed back $824 million in “cons utionally protected” profits from the nursing homes, one-third of which would have been coughed up by the top 40 most profitable homes alone. “I think what that number indicates is the amount of money they’re supposed to be spending on care that they’re instead extracting in profits,” said Ron Kim, the Queens assemblyman who introduced the safe staffing law.


    Indeed, if the complaint’s figures are accurate, the state would have more than a billion dollars per year with which to recruit, train, and deploy extra nursing staffers to struggling facilities if it actually enforced the law. Just the $510 million in profits detailed by the plaintiffs’ 239 most profitable properties could fund the salary and benefits of 5,600 additional registered nurses, says Richard Mollot of the Long Term Care Community Coalition, which plugged the lawsuit’s figures into an eye-popping database.


    The suit represents a wild departure from the nursing home industry’s historical party line that it is egregiously underfunded and barely able to break even. Since the passage of Medicare and Medicaid gave birth to the modern American nursing home industry, owners have argued year after year that the government simply does not provide them with sufficient funds to employ enough staffers to adequately care for their residents, while critics have responded that the funds would be plenty sufficient if owners did not insist on siphoning away such a lavish portion of said funds for themselves. The quantifiable truth of the matter has been obscured by the cocoons of esoteric accounting bull that generally swaddle most for-profit nursing homes.


    Now in the New York complaint, ownership is unabashedly arguing that abusing workers and patients to extract windfall profits from public programs is its cons utionally protected right. This is particularly significant because the most profitable of the plaintiff homes are largely owned by an interconnected gang of prolific health care slumlords that has aggressively expanded its reach in recent years, undeterred by the series of FBI raids, mass casualty events, criminal prosecutions, and media cluster s that has engulfed their empire.

    Yep, the Cuomo boys we're gonna win it for their old man who could never win it. Instead, AC got tossed out of the mansion in Albany &&& CC ended up getting tossed down the subway steps in New York and in the bitter end his was the that got wrecked.

    The family nemesis is the one who achieved what they could not...

    Trump President.
    Not Cuomo.

    Didn't last through the summer of 2020, his own party already had the knives out for Cuomo, no wonder I never heard of it.
