Dear Administrator,
This is to inform you of the issuance of the SFY 2023-24 2% supplemental payment and the reconciliation of prior SFY payments for actual 2022 cost report days.
The 2% supplemental payment ($140 million) to all nursing facilities was included in SPA 20-0072. Additionally, each State Fiscal Year the estimated Medicaid days used for previous 2% supplemental payments are reconciled to actual Medicaid cost report days for the relevant prior years’ payments.
The processing for the 2% supplemental payment will take effect in cycle 2427, with a check release date of 03/13/2024. If funds are owed due to the reconciliation, the Medicaid cycle payments will be subject to a 15% recoupment until the balance is paid in full. Additionally, the 2% supplemental payments will be reduced for any liabilities owed to the State and these providers will receive a “paper” check as opposed to a direct deposit.
Should you have any questions regarding these payments please email NFRATES@health.ny.gov and someone will respond to your inquiry.
Sincerely,
Erin M. Boyce
Assistant Director
Bureau of Nursing Home & Long Term Care Rate Setting
Division of Finance and Rate Setting
Office of Health Insurance Program
