Summary
New Jersey Medicaid has implemented a policy allowing the state to offset Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) payments and other hospital beneficiary care payments to collect outstanding hospital debts owed to the state. This affects how certain hospital payments will be processed and collected.
Action Required
Immediately: Hospital billing teams should review their DSH payment processing and state debt obligations. Contact New Jersey Medicaid for specific guidance on how this offset process will affect payment cycles and outstanding balances. Monitor upcoming DSH payments for potential offsets.
