Quality Care cuts rents for struggling nursing home chain ManorCare

Healthcare property owner Quality Care Properties Inc has agreed to cut rents for HCR ManorCare but said the U.S. nursing home chain, which already owes more than $300 million in back rent, has acknowledged it will struggle to pay even the reduced amount, according to a regulatory filing on Tuesday. Under the deal, which includes a one-year forbearance agreement, Quality Care reduced monthly rents under ManorCare's master lease to $23.5 million through Nov. 30, 2018 while the two companies discuss a broader restructuring. ManorCare declined to comment.
