SB 1395 
 
SUMMARY OF BILL:    Authorizes grant payments to eligible individuals under the Grant 
Assistance Program for Nursing Home Care to be made quarterly. 
 
 
FISCAL IMPACT: 
NOT SIGNIFICANT 
 
Assumptions: 
 
• Under current law, pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. § 71-5-1305, grant payments to 
individuals in nursing homes are required to be made monthly.  
• Allowing grant payments to be made less frequently will not have an impact on the total 
monetary amount of payments under the program, or result in a significant decrease in state 
expenditures. 
 
 
CERTIFICATION: 
 
 The information contained herein is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.
