Summary
Ohio Medicaid withdrew a proposed amendment to nursing facility covered days and bed-hold days policy (Rule 5160-3-16.4) that was filed on February 9, 2024. The withdrawal means the current policy remains unchanged, and no new billing requirements will be implemented for nursing facility services in Ohio.
Action Required
No action required. The proposed policy changes have been withdrawn, so current nursing facility billing procedures remain in effect. Continue following existing Ohio Medicaid guidelines for nursing facility covered days and bed-hold day billing.
