CRPs for Health Care Facilities
field_block:node:page:body
Health care facilities have special requirements for completing CRPs for their residents.
Do not provide a CRP if a resident’s entire care is paid under any of these assistance programs:
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
- Minnesota Supplemental Aid (MSA)
- Medical Assistance (MA or Medicaid)
- General Assistance Medical Care (GAMC)
- Housing Support (formerly Group Residential Housing or GRH)
Note: If assistance programs pay only part (or none) of a resident’s care, you must issue a CRP.
Calculations for Health Care Facilities

For each qualifying resident:
- Check the box if you received Housing Support (formerly GRH) payments for rent on the resident's behalf. This amount should not be included in the Renter's Share of Rent Paid field.
- Multiply the number of months the resident lived in the residence by $980 (the assumed monthly rent for 2024, adjusted each year). This amount is a flat rate and should be used regardless of any payments received from the resident.
- If the resident lived in the residence for part of the month, prorate the rent ($980 or less) for that month.
- If a resident pays less than the amounts above, the lesser amount applies.
- Enter the result in the Renter's Share of Rent Paid.
Example: | A renter lived in adult foster care from January 1 through June 10. The renter had five full months and one partial month in the unit. |
Five Full Months | $980 x 5 months = $4,900 |
One Partial Month | $980 x (10 days / 30 days) = $327 |
Total Rent | $4900 + $327 = $5,227 (round to nearest dollar) |
You must include all payments made under a rental agreement, in exchange for the right to stay at the assisted living facility. Do not include medical services in Renter's Share of Rent Paid on the CRP.
We will accept any reasonable method for determining what portion of rent consists of medical services. If there are specific costs for medical services included in the lease agreement, exclude those amounts from Renter's Share of Rent Paid when completing the CRP. Otherwise, include the full amount of rent paid for the Renter's Share of Rent Paid field.
For each qualifying resident:
- Enter the amount of Medicaid you received for rent on the resident’s behalf on the Medical Assistance Amount field. This amount should not be included in the Renter's Share of Rent Paid. To calculate this:
- Multiply the daily (per diem) rate by the number of days billed during the year.
- Subtract the annual Medical Assistance spend-down amount.
- Check the box if you received Housing Support (formerly GRH) payments for rent on the resident’s behalf. This amount should not be included in the Renter's Share of Rent Paid field.
- Multiply the number of months the resident lived in the facility by $630 (the assumed monthly rent for 2024, adjusted each year). This amount is a flat rate and should be used regardless of any payments received from the resident.
- If the resident paid less than $630 a month, use the lesser amount.
- If the resident lived in the facility for part of the month, prorate the rent ($630 or less) for that month.
- Enter the result in the Renter's Share of Rent Paid field.
Example: | A renter lived in the intermediate care facility from January 1 through June 10. The renter had five full months and one partial month in the unit. |
Five Full Months | $630 x 5 months = $3,150 |
One Partial Month | $630 x (10 days / 30 days) = $210 |
Total Rent | $3,150 + $210 = $3,360 |

Example: | A renter lived in the nursing home from January 1 through June 10. The renter had five full months and one partial month in the unit. |
Five Full Months | $630 x 5 months = $3,150 |
One Partial Month | $630 x (10 days / 30 days) = $210 |
Total Rent | $3,150 + $210 = $3,360 |
