West Virginia Nursing Workforce Expansion Program

These initiatives build upon Governor Justice’s successful Save Our Care program, which he made possible with an initial $58 million in payments to hospitals intended to help them retain and hire staff. By August 2021, there had been an infusion of $528 million in federal and state funds to hospitals to support pandemic costs prior to Save Our Care. Across all Medicaid services, hospitals were paid $996 million in FY 2021. Also, through Save Our Care, Governor Justice increased Medicaid reimbursements for nursing homes, totaling $12.5 million per month over normal rates, to offset staffing costs.
