Current through Register Vol. 51, page 67, December 16, 2024
Section 46:11:13:17 - New admission and readmission

A new admission occurs when an individual is admitted to any Medicaid certified swing bed or nursing facility for the first time or when an admission does not qualify as a readmission. With the exception of certain hospital discharges described in § 46:11:13:04, new admissions are subject to PASRR.

A readmission occurs when an individual is readmitted to a Medicaid certified swing bed or nursing facility from a hospital to which the individual was transferred from the nursing facility for the purpose of receiving medical care. This type of readmission does not require a PASRR.
