MMP 25-25: Allowable Costs
Michigan Medicaid - MDHHS·MI · Geriatrics·Provider Bulletin
Effective date

We identified it
Jun 20, 2026
Summary
Michigan Medicaid now allows nursing facilities to include medication aide certification fees and BiPAP devices as allowable costs on their cost reports, rather than billing them separately. This affects how nursing facilities handle reimbursement for these specific items.
Action Required
Nursing facilities only: Update cost reporting procedures to include medication aide certification fees (effective March 7, 2024) and BiPAP devices (effective December 1, 2024) as allowable costs instead of separate billing. Maintain documentation for audit purposes. This does not affect typical medical billing teams.
