Sec. 1.
(a) This rule sets forth procedures for payment for services rendered to Medicaid members by duly certified nonstate-operated ICFs/IID, nonstate-operated CRMNFs, and nonstate-operated CRFs/DD. All payments referred to within this rule for the provider groups and levels of care are contingent upon the following: (1) Proper and current certification.(2) Compliance with applicable state and federal statutes and regulations.(b) The system of payment outlined in this rule is a prospective system. Cost limitations are contained in this rule which establish parameters regarding the allowability of ordinary patient or member related costs and define reasonable allowable costs.(c) Retroactive repayment will be required by providers when an audit verifies overpayment due to discounting, intentional misrepresentation, billing or payment errors, or misstatement of historical financial or historical statistical data which caused a higher rate than would have been allowed had the data been true and accurate. Upon discovery that a provider has received overpayment of a Medicaid claim from the office, the provider must complete the appropriate Medicaid billing adjustment form as prescribed by the office and reimburse the office for the amount of the overpayment, or the office shall make a retroactive payment adjustment, as appropriate.(d) The office may implement Medicaid rates and recover overpayments from previous rate reimbursements, either through deductions of future payments or otherwise, without awaiting the outcome of the administrative appeal process, in accordance with IC 12-15-13-4(e).(e) Providers must pay interest on overpayments, consistent with IC 12-15-13-4. The interest charge shall not exceed the percentage set out in IC 6-8.1-10-1(c). The interest shall accrue from the date of the overpayment to the provider and shall apply to the net outstanding overpayment during the periods in which such overpayment exists.
