OPINION OF THE COURT
Weiss, J.
In 1986 the State’s Medicaid program converted to a new methodology to compute nursing home reimbursement rates based in part upon the severity of the patient’s medical condition and the degree of care required by the patient’s condition, and in part on cost corridors consisting of acceptable ranges of costs based upon State and regional averages. The methodology conversion was to be financially neutral on the State budget and was designed to encourage nursing homes to accept more difficult case mixes and to encourage efficient delivery of medical services.
