Bill Summary

Revises parameter to implement prospective payment methodology for Medicaid reimbursement rate settings for nursing home care.

AI Summary

This bill revises the parameters for implementing a prospective payment methodology for Medicaid reimbursement rates for nursing home care in Florida. It amends the state's Long-Term Care Reimbursement Plan to create direct care and indirect care subcomponents of the patient care component, with separate prices calculated for each subcomponent. The bill also introduces a quality incentive program and a fair rental value system for payment parameters. Importantly, it requires the Agency for Health Care Administration to rebase nursing home prospective payment rates every four years and provides for a transition period where providers are reimbursed the greater of their September 2016 cost-based rate or their prospective payment rate until October 2021.
