Summary
Maryland House Bill 752 requires nursing home social workers to provide residents with information about community-based Medicaid waiver programs that could allow them to live outside the nursing home. Social workers must present a standardized one-page document at admission, discharge, and annually upon request, and obtain signed acknowledgment for the medical record.
Action Required
No immediate action required for billing teams. This is an informational policy from 2002 regarding nursing home social worker documentation requirements for community service information sharing. Medical billing staff should be aware that nursing home records may contain these community service acknowledgment forms, but no billing code or reimbursement changes are specified.
