Today Friday Feb 1st, is the last day to sign on in support of the letter to
CMS regarding proposed changes in the Case Management rules
Is your organization listed with the supporters below? If not and you want
to sign on email Linda Taylor [EMAIL PROTECTED]
What's this about?
These changes in the Case Management rules will reduce federal case
management reimbursement targeted for transitioning people from
institutional settings to the community. Under the Interim Final Rules, CMS
will reduce the funding for individuals transitioning from a nursing home or
other institution to a community setting, from the current 180 days to only
60 days for people who have been institutionalized for six months or more,
and only allow payment for 14 days if the individual has been
institutionalized for less than six months.
