In the wake of the recent publication of the 2023 Federal Poverty Levels, the New York Office of Health Insurance Programs has released revised Medicaid income and resource limits, which will take effect immediately.

These revised limits will be applied to all new applications filed for both Community and Institutional Medicaid benefits. In addition, the new limits will be applied retroactively for any applications currently pending before NYC Human Resources Administration/Department of Social Services. New York State has directed that all redeterminations of Medicaid eligibility issued effective January 1, 2023 must be re-budgeted retroactively to January 1, 2023, using these new income and resource limits.

We’d love to tell you all about it. So please consider yourself cordially invited to a little thing we like to call Coffee Talk—a live 20-minute conversation at 1:30 p.m. ET on Thursday, March 16th to introduce you to Nonstop Health.

The impact of resident care and accurately identifying the acuity of a resident are the defining drivers of reimbursement for Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs). The management of these systems will determine whether a SNF can remain financially stable during very challenging times. A vital strategy to safeguard Skilled Nursing Facilities is the establishment of a comprehensive approach designed to guide facilities to success under case-mix reimbursement. Many facilities rely on reaching a goal without implementing a strategic plan in place to reach that goal. The CMI process is no different. If consistent systems are not developed that are collaborative and efficient, the CMI process will break down. Preferred Therapy Solutions has advanced a comprehensive model with a Six-Step Approach for CMI Success. By implementing these procedures and adhering to program maintenance CMI success is attainable.
