Section 17b-262-708 - Applied income(a) The department is responsible for calculating the applied income. The department shall notify the nursing facility of the amount of any applied income that the nursing facility is responsible for collecting. Applied income shall be deducted from what otherwise would have been the department's monthly payment to the nursing facility.(b) The nursing facility shall notify the department's caseworker of any errors in the amount of applied income processed against the claim using the form specified by the department. Payment adjustments resulting from retroactive applied income corrections shall be processed periodically.(c) In any month that a resident returns to the community or dies, and the cost of care is less than the applied income, the department shall adjust the applied income as follows: the applied income shall equal the number of days that the resident was in the nursing facility multiplied by the per diem rate.(d) Applied income is not pro rated. It is used to cover the cost of care until it is expended.Conn. Agencies Regs. § 17b-262-708
