The department shall conduct a Level II review that consists of determining the appropriateness of a Medicaid certified swing bed or nursing facility, and possible mental health services, including specialized mental health services for individuals identified in the Level I screening.
Each individual is reviewed for appropriateness of placement, regardless of the source of payment for the swing bed or nursing facility services. A determination whether or not an individual requires the level of services provided by the facility and whether or not an individual can benefit from mental health services is made.
