What’s in it

This bill authorizes the department of human services (DHS) to release nursing facility rates prior to receiving approval of a state plan amendment from the centers for Medicare and Medicaid services of the United States department of health and human services (CMS) to reduce retrospective rate processing. The bill also authorizes DHS to retroactively adjust nursing facility rates released prior to receipt of federal approval and to retroactively reconcile payments based on such rates as necessary to reflect any differences between the rates submitted and the rates actually approved by CMS and to align the rates with available funding.
