Nursing Homes Have Until May 13th to Review 2022 Capital Calculation
In a Dear Administrator Letter (DAL) issued on March 29th, the Department of Health (DOH) notified nursing home providers that preview 2022 Medicaid capital component calculations have been posted to the Health Commerce System (HCS). For more information on the process and links to key documents, please click here. To access the preview rate sheets, sign into the HCS, navigate to the Healthcare Financial Data Gateway section, select the collection of “NH Rate Sheets 4/2009-Forward,” and choose the package named “2022 Capital Preview Rates.”
Members should review their capital calculations as well as their facility’s information in the mortgage database. If no corrections are needed, members should submit the signed attestation form to nfrates@health.ny.gov. If corrections are needed, members should consult the DAL and follow the specified correction process based on the issue being corrected and submit the appropriate documents along with the attestation form. Note that errors based on incorrect data submitted by the facility require a resubmission of the cost report to correct the data. The review and attestation process needs to be completed by May 13th. Should you encounter difficulty with the process or the deadline, please let LeadingAge NY know.
We also remind members that DOH has extended the deadline for filing any further appeals to the appeals that were processed in December 2021 or March 2022 until April 15th. More information is available here.
