  1.10     Subd. 40.  [FACILITY RATE DETERMINATION.] A facility

  1.12  144A.073 to relocate 108 beds to a newly constructed facility in 
  1.13  Chisago County shall have its operating rates established when 
  1.14  the new facility is certified for occupancy based on the interim 
  1.15  and settle-up provisions of Minnesota Rules, part 9549.0057, and 
  1.16  the reimbursement provisions of this section, except that 
  1.17  subdivision 26, paragraphs (a) and (b), shall not apply until 
  1.18  the second rate year after the settle-up cost report is filed.  
  1.19  In order to establish the interim and settle-up rates, and all 
  1.20  subsequent rates, this facility shall be classified in

  2.2   implementation of any new nursing facility reimbursement system, 
  2.3   the rates must be determined using the procedures of the new 
  2.4   nursing facility reimbursement system.
