Medicaid Case-Mix States: A Reader Question
Recently, a reader asked me a question regarding which states still use RUGs III for their Medicaid case-mix payments. At the time, I honestly didn’t know the answer completely. Based on a little research, I’ve outlined the RUGs status as I currently know it, across the states that utilize Medicaid case-mix. Note: Not all states use a case-mix reimbursement methodology for their Medicaid SNF payments (eighteen don’t). Any readers that know more specifics about any of the states and their status as listed below, are free to comment with additional information.
