Summary
Michigan Medicaid has extended the COVID-19 temporary non-available bed plan (NABP) policy for nursing facilities from September 30, 2024 to September 30, 2025. The policy now allows up to seven extensions instead of four, with all extensions required to end by September 30, 2025.
Action Required

Review and update internal processes for non-available bed designations to comply with pre-pandemic requirements.
