Feds delay enforcement of home care wage rule - Modern Healthcare: Feds delay enforcement of home care wage rule
By Lisa Schencker | September 11, 2015
The U.S. Labor Department won't start enforcing its new rule requiring higher pay for many home healthcare workers just yet, despite a recent court decision upholding the rule.

The new rule won't go into effect until 30 days after the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals issues a mandate making its opinion effective. It's unclear when that mandate will come because industry groups have asked the court to wait until after they try to appeal the matter to the U.S. Supreme Court.

The rule was slated to go into effect Oct. 13.
