-
The Department is
transitioning from a Level of Care based Medicaid
reimbursement method to an acuity based method that utilizes
MDS assessments to calculate RUG levels.
-
This change does not affect
how nursing homes code the MDS for their Medicaid residents.
Nursing homes should continue completing MDS assessments
following requirements specified in the RAI manual.
-
No additional MDS assessments
are required and WI continues to require the standard 2-page
MDS Quarterly assessment. WI does not require Medicaid
resident MDS assessments to be coded as AA8b = 06 (Other
State Required Assessment).
-
The Division of Health Care
Financing will provide additional information on the changes
to nursing home Medicaid reimbursement in a future Medicaid
Update release. |
