Summary
Maryland Medicaid nursing facility services regulations are being amended to eliminate behavior management, ostomy care, and injection billing as separate reimbursement items, merging these into per diem payments. The changes also modify reimbursement rates and calculation methods for nursing facilities.
Action Required
No action required for current billing teams - this is a historical 2003 Maryland Medicaid policy specific to nursing facility reimbursement that does not affect current medical practice billing procedures.
