The report, which was released April 21, analyzed federal data on nursing home closures.
Three key findings:
- More than 1,000 nursing homes have closed since 2015, including 776 before the pandemic and 327 during the pandemic.
- Nearly 45,000 nursing home residents have been displaced because of closures since 2015.
- Thirty-three percent to 38 percent of nursing homes would be considered at financial risk if Medicare is cut by 5 percent and Medicaid public health emergency funding ends in 2022.
