Reminder: Nursing Facility Payment Changes Effective Sept. 1, 2025
NC Medicaid is streamlining the nursing facility payment process to support timely provider reimbursement and reduce administrative delays.
Key Updates:
- MAGI Members: Providers can bill immediately upon admission. No DSS action or PML determination is required.
- All Members: Payment is no longer delayed by the transfer of assets evaluation. Claims can be paid once PML is determined (for non-MAGI members).
- Sanctions from asset evaluations will apply starting the date listed on the DSS-8110 notice, always ending on the last day of the month.
