​A bill passed in the 2017 Legislative Session allows 3rd Parties paying for an individual’s CNA training costs to be reimbursed if the individual is successfully employed at a nursing home for 90 days. This includes the hard costs of tuition, books, test-out fee and transportation expenses. Reimbursement is requested from Nursing Home/Employer where the individual is employed.

 

The documents below - from the Department of Human Services - provide guidance in the process, as well as the needed forms. 

 

For more information or questions, please contact Munna Yasiri at the Department of Human Services at munna.yasiri@state.mn.us.
