Nursing Facilities
The Division of Medicaid (DOM) Office of Long Term Care is responsible for monitoring an interagency agreement with the Mississippi State Department of Health, Bureau of Health Facilities Licensure and Certification (HFLC). As part of the agreement, HFLC surveys nursing facilities. DOM has the discretion to impose civil monetary penalties and other recommendations made by HFLC on nursing facilities enrolled as Medicaid providers that are out of compliance with the state and federal regulations.
Case Mix Reimbursement
The Office of Long Term Care is also responsible for the Nursing Facility Case Mix Reimbursement program which ensures accuracy of nursing facility resident assessment data used to establish resident classification and nursing facility reimbursement payment rates.
