Nursing Home Capital Webinar Set for July 13th
The Department of Health (DOH) will present a webinar on nursing home capital reimbursement issues on Thurs., July 13th from 1 to 4 pm. As in recent years, DOH intends to issue draft preview capital calculations in early fall. Homes that identify errors or omissions have the opportunity to submit a corrected calculation along with an attestation verifying that their correction is accurate. DOH reviews the submission to ensure that it meets regulatory and policy standards. If it does, that calculation is used for reimbursement, and the Office of Medicaid Inspector General (OMIG) verifies accuracy through subsequent audit. The webinar is intended to review capital rate setting for nursing homes, address issues that DOH has observed in the attestation process, and help make sure that homes know how to submit successful attestations.
Details of the webinar will be circulated shortly. The DOH notification is copied below.
