I. The department shall pursue as expeditiously as possible the development and implementation of a reimbursement system for nursing facility services based primarily on the acuity level of patients consistent with state and federal law and all appropriate notice requirements. All nursing facilities shall use best efforts to provide all information and data requested by the department in the course of its development of such a system and to assist the department in any manner reasonably requested by the department.
II. Unless otherwise required by state or federal law, the acuity-based reimbursement system developed by the department shall not create separate classifications for county and non-county facilities and shall be based on the concept of the cost of operating an efficient facility rather than actual costs.
