What happens if the NF or ICF/MR* accepts a hospice resident while Medicaid eligibility is pending and it is later determined that the resident is not eligible? Who is responsible for room and board payment to the NF or ICF/MR?

The hospice is responsible for the room and board amount.

It is imperative that the hospice social worker continues to pursue eligibility for the resident to decrease the financial risk in the event the resident is ultimately not eligible for nursing facility benefits.

What happens if the Nursing Facility (NF) or Intermediate Care Facility (ICF) / Mental Retardation (MR) is paid in error for hospice dates of service?

Where do I list the individuals affiliated with our group on the enrollment application?

During the online enrollment process, organizations cannot affiliate individuals to their group. It is the responsibility of the individual provider to affiliate with a group. The request must be on the business letterhead to include the Group’s Medicaid Legacy ID number and the provider’s NPI number with the provider’s or an authorized signature via Fax: (803) 870-9022 or Mail: Medicaid Provider Enrollment, PO Box 8809 Columbia, SC 29202-8809.

Why is the group enrollment effective date before the date our individual provider joined the group?

When an Individual provider is affiliated with a group, the original group enrollment date remains the same regardless of when the individual provider was affiliated. The individual provider does not receive a new enrollment date when affiliated with the group.
