Icf/Iid: Property Reimbursement Limitations

Property costs of an ICF/IID are reimbursed except as follows: (7-1-26) 01. Property Leases. No grandfathered rates or lease provisions other than the following apply: (7-1-26) a. Property costs related to living units other than costs for major movable equipment are paid the property rental rate. (7-1-26) b. Leases for property other than ICF/IID living units are allowable based on lease cost to a facility not exceeding reasonable market rate, subject to principles associated with related party leases. (7-1-26) 02. Home Office and Day Treatment Property Costs. Distinct parts of buildings containing ICF/IID living units may be used for home office or day treatment purposes. Reimbursement for the property costs of these parts is allowed when the areas are used exclusively for these services. The portion of property cost attributed to these areas is reimbursed as part of home office or day treatment costs without a reduction in the property rental rate. Reimbursement for these costs does not include costs reimbursed by, or covered by the property rental rate, and are only reimbursed as property cost when the facility clearly included space in excess of space normally used in a facility. To qualify for reimbursement, a structure must have square feet per licensed bed exceeding the average square feet per licensed bed for other ICF/IID living units with four (4) licensable beds.
