2013 House Bill 4438

Revise Medicaid nursing home detail

Introduced in the House

March 12, 2013

Introduced by Rep. Marilyn Lane (D-31)

To establish that if an individual’s application for Medicaid nursing home benefits is not approved or denied within 45 days, the applicant will be considered approved. If the person is eventually determined to be ineligible, benefits would cease but there would be no retroactive “claw back” of amounts already paid.
