50-24.4-13. Exclusion
50-24.4-13. Exclusion
Until procedures for determining operating cost payment rates according to mix of resident
needs are established for nursing homes that exclusively provide residential services for
nongeriatric individuals with physical disabilities or units within nursing homes which exclusively
provide geropsychiatric services, such nursing homes or units within nursing homes may not be
included in the calculation of the limits of any cost categories. Each of these nursing homes or
units within nursing homes shall receive its actual allowed historical operating cost per diem
adjusted by the inflation rate for nursing home services used to develop the legislative
appropriation for the department, and which the department determines to be relevant to
residential services for nongeriatric individuals with physical disabilities or geropsychiatric
services.
