In order to better inform analysis of existing policies and development of future policies that affect Medicaid payments, this spreadsheet documents each state’s fee-for-service (FFS) nursing facility payment policy, including how individual states set their payment rates and the various adjustments and supplemental payments that states make. The tab labeled summary presents summary data for each state in each of these categories. The data in the summary tab are linked to state-specific tabs that present a more detailed picture of each state’s Medicaid FFS nursing facility payment policy.
Read the issue brief on trends and policy developments in state nursing facility fee-for-service payment policies.
