Section 7 AAC 140.565 - Payment for nursing facility transfers(a) If the department determines that a nursing facility is deficient in areas related to recipient care and the facility transfers a recipient to another facility at the same level-of-care certification to avoid decertification or any other enforcement penalty, the department will recover from the facility the costs of transferring that recipient to the other facility.(b) If the department determines that a recipient needs a higher or lower level of care than the facility is certified to provide, the department will pay the cost of moving the recipient to a facility certified to provide a higher or lower level of care.Eff. 2/1/2010, Register 193Authority:AS 47.05.010
