Section 641-3.4 - Rates and Fees for Specialty Hospitals

Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 39, September 25, 2024

(a) For a provider that operates any Other Eligible Programs, the provider's rate or fee for each such program will be revised to incorporate funding for compensation increases to their direct support professional employees. Such rate or fee increases will be effective January 1, 2015. The compensation increase funding will be included in the provider's rate or fee issued for January 1, 2015 or in a subsequent rate or fee with the inclusion of funding in the amount necessary to achieve the same funding impact as if the rate or fee had been issued on January 1, 2015. The compensation increase funding will be inclusive of associated fringe benefits.

(b) April 1, 2015 Increase. In addition to the compensation funding effective January 1, 2015, a provider that operates any Other Eligible Programs will receive a compensation increase targeted to direct support professional and clinical employees to be effective April 1, 2015. The April 1, 2015 direct care compensation funding will be the same, on an annualized basis, as that which was calculated for the January 1, 2015 compensation increase and will be an augmentation to the January 1, 2015 increase.

(c) Calculations.

(1) The portion of the rate or fee that is identified as direct care and support will be increased by 2% and multiplied by the rate or fee sheet fringe benefit percentage to calculate the additional direct care compensation increases for January 1, 2015 and April 1, 2015.

(2) The portion of the rate or fee that is identified as clinical will be increased by 2% and multiplied by the rate or fee sheet fringe benefit percentage to calculate the additional clinical compensation increase for April 1, 2015.
