Nursing Home Capital Correction Due Friday

Homes seeking to correct the capital component of their 2016 Medicaid rate by submitting and attesting to their own calculation must do so by Dec. 4th.  Homes wishing to do so will have the right to file a traditional appeal of their capital once final rates are published in January. DOH is stressing that homes may only use one method of correcting their 2016 capital rate:  if they file an appeal, any attested calculation that was submitted previously will become void.  DOH reserves the right to reject an attested calculation with which they disagree.  The Office of Medicaid Inspector General (OMIG) will be responsible to verify attested capital calculations through audit.
