Medical Assistance
Under current law, nursing homes and intermediate care facilities for the mentally retarded (ICFMRs) must pay an assessment on each bed for which they are licensed. A portion of the bed assessment revenues is deposited in the general fund ($13,800,000 in fiscal year 2004-05, and 45 percent of the revenues starting in fiscal year 2005-06) and the remainder is deposited in the Medical Assistance trust fund. Money in the Medical Assistance trust fund is appropriated for payment of Medical Assistance program benefits.
This bill provides that in each fiscal year $13,800,000 of the revenues generated from the nursing home and ICFMR bed assessment shall be deposited in the general fund and the remainder shall be deposited in the Medical Assistance trust fund.
Under current law, DHFS levies, enforces, and collects assessments on all licensed beds of nursing homes and intermediate care facilities for the mentally retarded. The assessments are $75 per calendar month per licensed bed of a nursing home and $435 in fiscal year 2003-04 and $445 in fiscal year 2004-05 per calendar month per licensed bed of an intermediate care facility for the mentally retarded (ICFMR).
This bill increases the amount of the assessment per licensed bed of a nursing home to up to $125 per calendar month and the amount of the assessment per licensed bed of an ICFMR to up to $523 per calendar month in fiscal year 2005-06 and up to $587 per calendar month in fiscal year 2006-07.
