Subsection 144-101-III-67-15 - COST COMPONENTS

15.1 In the prospective case mix system of reimbursement, allowable costs are grouped into cost categories. The nature of the expenses dictates which costs are allowable under these Principles of Reimbursement. The costs shall be grouped into the following three (3) cost categories:

15.1.1 Direct Care Costs,

15.1.2 Routine Costs, and

15.1.3 Fixed Costs.

Principles 16-18 describe the cost centers in each of these categories, the limitations and allowable costs placed on each of these cost centers.

The basis for reimbursement within the direct care cost component is a resident classification system that groups residents into classes according to their assessed conditions and the resources required to care for them.
