Medicaid Recipients Sample Clauses

Medicaid Recipients. Medicaid regulations provide that when a Medicaid recipient has been a resident in the Facility for a minimum of thirty (30) days and the Facility’s vacancy rate is less than five (5%) percent, the Resident’s bed will be reserved for: (1) Residents under 21 years of age for temporary hospitalization and therapeutic leave; (2) Residents 21 and over who are receiving hospice services for temporary hospitalization. The Medicaid bed hold is limited for fourteen (14) days in any twelve (12) month period; (3) Residents 21 and over for non-hospitalization therapeutic leaves of absence (“Therapeutic Leave”). The Medicaid bed hold for Therapeutic Leave is limited to ten (10) days in a twelve (12) month period. There is no Medicaid paid bed hold for a Resident 21 years of age or older who is temporarily hospitalized unless such Resident is receiving hospice services within the Facility. Medicaid recipients who do not meet the bed hold eligibility requirements, who do not have a paid bed hold, whose bed hold has expired or has been terminated, may elect to reserve/hold the same bed in the Facility by notifying the Admission Department and signing a bed hold reservation form with the Admission Department stating their intent to hold, and pay for, the bed at the Facility’s private pay rate. In the absence of a bed hold, a Medicaid resident, has the right to, and will be given priority for readmission when an appropriate bed in a semi-private room becomes available if the Resident requires the services provided by the Facility and is eligible for Medicaid nursing home services, unless there are special circumstances which would preclude the Resident’s return. For additional information, please contact our Admissions Department, Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5pm.

For other leaves of absence included in the resident’s plan of care, the resident’s bed will be held for a maximum of ten (10) days in a twelve (12) month period. Medicaid recipients who do not meet the bed hold eligibility requirements or whose bed hold has expired or has been terminated, may elect to secure the same bed in the Facility by notifying the Admission Department by telephone and signing a bed guarantee letter with the Admission Department stating their intent to hold their bed at the facility’s private pay rate.

Medicaid Recipients. If a Medicaid Recipient is hospitalized, the Resident’s bed will be held for up to ten (10) days if such bed hold is 1) requested on behalf of the Resident; 2) authorized by a physician; 3) approved by the Illinois Department of Public Aid (IDPA); and 4) is authorized according to all applicable IDPA Rules. A Medicaid Recipient or applicant shall be considered a Resident in the Facility during any hospital stay totaling ten (10) days or less following a hospital admission. In the event that a Medicaid Recipient departs the Facility for therapeutic leave or a home visit, the Resident’s bed will be held for up to seven (7) consecutive days if such bed hold is 1) requested on behalf of the Resident; and 2) is authorized according to all applicable IDPA Rules. If a Medicaid Recipient’s hospitalization exceeds a period of ten (10) consecutive days or if a therapeutic leave exceeds seven (7) consecutive days, then the Facility may treat the Resident’s bed as open and available and place another resident into the bed immediately. If a Medicaid Recipient is hospitalized for a period in excess of the ten (10) day Medicaid payment limit for bed holds, the Medicaid Recipient may elect to make bed hold payments to reserve the bed until he or she returns from the hospital. The bed hold payments will be at the current daily rate.

  • Medicaid Program Contractors Inspection of Records: Any contracts accessing payments for services through the Global Commitment to Health Waiver and Vermont Medicaid program must fulfill state and federal legal requirements to enable the Agency of Human Services (AHS), the United States Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and the Government Accounting Office (GAO) to: Evaluate through inspection or other means the quality, appropriateness, and timeliness of services performed; and Inspect and audit any financial records of such Contractor or subcontractor.

  • Medicaid Program Parties (applicable to any Party providing services and supports paid for under Vermont’s Medicaid program and Vermont’s Global Commitment to Health Waiver):

  • Medicaid If and when the Resident’s assets/funds have fallen below the Medicaid eligibility levels, and the Resident otherwise satisfies the Medicaid eligibility requirements and is not entitled to any other third party coverage, the Resident may be eligible for Medicaid (often referred to as the “payor of last resort”). THE RESIDENT, RESIDENT REPRESENTATIVE AND SPONSOR AGREE TO NOTIFY THE FACILITY AT LEAST THREE (3) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EXHAUSTION OF THE RESIDENT’S FUNDS (APPROXIMATELY $50,000) AND/OR INSURANCE COVERAGE TO CONFIRM THAT A MEDICAID APPLICATION HAS OR WILL BE SUBMITTED TIMELY AND ENSURE THAT ALL ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS HAVE BEEN MET. THE RESIDENT, RESIDENT REPRESENTATIVE AND/OR SPONSOR AGREE TO PREPARE AND FILE AN APPLICATION FOR MEDICAID BENEFITS PRIOR TO THE EXHAUSTION OF THE RESIDENT’S RESOURCES. Services reimbursed under Medicaid are outlined in Attachment “A” to this Agreement. Once a Medicaid application has been submitted on the Resident’s behalf, the Resident, Sponsor, and Resident Representative agree to pay, to the extent they have access to the Resident’s funds, to the Facility the Resident’s monthly income, which will be owed to the Facility under the Resident’s Medicaid budget. Medicaid recipients are required to pay their Net Available Monthly Income (“NAMI”) to the Facility on a monthly basis as a co-payment obligation as part of the Medicaid rate. A Resident’s NAMI equals his or her income (e.g., Social Security, pension, etc.), less allowed deductions. The Facility has no control over the determination of NAMI amounts, and it is the obligation of the Resident, Resident Representative and/or Sponsor to appeal any disputed NAMI calculation with the appropriate government agency. Once Medicaid eligibility is established, the Resident, Resident Representative and/or Sponsor agree to pay NAMI to the Facility or to arrange to have the income redirected by direct deposit to the Facility and to ensure timely Medicaid recertification. The Resident, Sponsor and Resident Representative agree to provide to the Facility copies of any notices (such as requests for information, budget letters, recertification, denials, etc.) they receive from the Department of Social Services related to the Resident’s Medicaid coverage. Until Medicaid is approved, the Facility may bill the Resident’s account as private pay and the Resident will be responsible for the Facility’s private pay rate. If Medicaid denies coverage, the Resident or the Resident’s authorized representative can appeal such denial; however, payment for any uncovered services will be owed to the Facility at the private pay rate pending the appeal determination. If Medicaid eligibility is established and retroactively covers any period for which private payment has been made, the Facility agrees to refund or credit any amount in excess of the NAMI owed during the covered period.

  • Covered Health Care Services We agree to provide coverage for medically necessary covered health care services listed in this agreement. If a service or category of service is not specifically listed as covered, it is not covered under this agreement. Only services that we have reviewed and determined are eligible for coverage under this agreement are covered. All other services are not covered. See Section 1.4 for how we identify new services and our guidelines for reviewing and making coverage determinations. We only cover a service listed in this agreement if it is medically necessary. We review medical necessity in accordance with our medical policies and related guidelines. The term medically necessary is defined in Section 8.0 - Glossary. It does not include all medically appropriate services. The amount of coverage we provide for each health care service differs according to whether or not the service is received: • as an inpatient; • as an outpatient; • in your home; • in a doctor’s office; or • from a pharmacy. Also coverage differs depending on whether: • the health care provider is a network provider or non-network provider; • deductibles (if any), copayments, or maximum benefit apply; • you have reached your plan year maximum out-of-pocket expense; • there are any exclusions from coverage that apply; or • our allowance for a covered health care service is less than the amount of your copayment and deductible (if any). In this case, you will be responsible to pay up to our allowance when services are rendered by a network provider. Please see the Summary of Medical Benefits to determine the benefit limits and amount that you pay for the covered health care services listed below. Please see the Summary of Pharmacy Benefits to determine the benefit limits and amount that you pay for prescription drug and diabetic equipment and supplies purchased at a pharmacy.

In addition, if this Agreement is funded in any part by monies of the United States, the Contractor shall comply with all federal executive orders, rules, regulations and statutes, and with any rules, regulations and guidelines as the State or the United States issue to implement these regulations.

  • Medicare If the Resident meets the eligibility requirements for skilled nursing facility benefits under the Medicare Part A Hospital Insurance Program, the Facility will bill Medicare directly for Part A services provided to the Resident. Medicare will reimburse the Facility a fixed per diem or daily fee based on the Resident’s classification within the Medicare RUG IV guidelines or successor guidelines thereto. If the Resident continues to be eligible, Medicare may provide coverage of up to 100 days of care. The first 20 days of covered services are fully paid by Medicare and the next 80 days (days 21 through 100) of the covered services are paid in part by Medicare and subject to a daily coinsurance amount for which the Resident is responsible. A Resident with Medicare Part B and/or Part D coverage, who subsequently exhausts his/her Part A coverage or no longer needs a skilled level of care under Part A, may still be eligible to receive coverage for certain Part B services (previously included in the Part A payment to the Facility) and/or Part D services when Part A coverage ends. Medicare will terminate coverage for Medicare beneficiaries receiving physical, occupational and/or speech therapy (“therapy services”) if the Resident does not receive therapy for three (3) consecutive days, whether planned or unplanned, for any reason, including illness or refusals, doctor appointments or religious holidays. If such therapy was the basis for Medicare Part A coverage, the Resident would be responsible for the cost of his/her stay, unless another payor source is available. If Medicare denies coverage and denies further payment and/or recoups any payment made to the Facility, the Resident, Resident Representative, and/or Sponsor hereby agree to pay to the Facility any outstanding amounts for unpaid services not covered by other third party payers, subject to applicable federal and state laws and regulations. Such amounts shall be calculated in accordance with the Facility’s applicable prevailing private rates and charges for all basic and additional services provided to the Resident. Except for specifically excluded services, most nursing home services are covered under the consolidated billing requirements for Medicare Part A beneficiaries or under an all-inclusive rate for other third party insurers and managed care organizations (MCOs). Under these requirements, the Facility is responsible for furnishing directly, or arranging for, the services for its residents covered by Medicare Part A and MCOs. When not directly providing services, the Facility is required to enter into arrangements with outside providers and must exercise professional responsibility and control over the arranged-for services. All services that the Resident requires must be provided by the Facility or an outside provider approved by the Facility. Before obtaining any services outside of the Facility, the Resident must consult the Facility. While the Resident has the right to choose a health care provider, the Resident understands that by selecting the Facility, the Resident has effectively exercised his/her right of free choice with respect to the entire package of services for which the Facility is responsible under the consolidated billing and third party billing requirements. The Resident agrees that he/she will not arrange for the provision of ancillary services unless the Resident has obtained prior approval from the Facility.

The Dentist will be solely responsible to Covered Persons for dental advice and treatment; SDC will have no control over Dentist's practice or the dentist-patient relationship.
