HCAM Webinar: Reimbursement and State Budget – MDHHS Update
August 3, 2023 | 12:30 – 1:30 pm ET
You’ve got reimbursement questions. We’ve got answers!
This program will provide Michigan skilled nursing facilities an overview of the changes in rate setting, initial and final settlements, QAS reconciliation state fiscal year 2022, QAS payments and related limits as allowed by the State Plan Amendment 0013, and audit requirements. The rate setting methodology was changed for state fiscal years 2022 and 2023 to recognize the financial toll of the pandemic on providers. The rates will be based on the actual provider costs from Medicaid cost reports for FY 2022 and 2023. This rate method change flows through to the settlement for these years and directly impacts the amount of QAS paid based on these rates.
The webinar will also present the latest information regarding the recently passed state fiscal year 2024 Michigan Department of Health and Human Services budget and its impact on long-term care providers, along with the status of the development of a new reimbursement system for skilled nursing services.
