Home Health Care Providers have already taken a 4.5% rate reduction and may take another 1% rate reduction July 1, 2010.
Home Health Reductions -
HCPF’s budget request is recommending another decrease of $202.8M general fund for the 2010/11 budget.
HB10-1324 reduces nursing homes per diem rates by 1.5% effective March 1, 2010 and only through June 30, 2011. No other Medicaid provider has an end date on their rate reduction.
The current statue allows for Nursing Homes to receive automatic increases. This amendment levels the playing field for all Medicaid providers on the continuum of long-term care by allowing HCPF, JBC, and the legislature in the long bill to set all provider rates.
It is hard to understand why Nursing Homes, which are continuing to provide services to fewer patients every year, will continue to receive special treatment.
All Long Term Care providers have a place along the continuum, but none is more important than any other. Please help us choose home for all Coloradans.
