Kan. Admin. Regs. § 30-10-28 - Resident days
(a) Calculation of
resident days.
(1) "Resident day" shall have
the meaning set forth in K.A.R. 30-10-1a.
(2) If both admission and discharge occur on
the same day, that day shall be considered to be a day of admission and shall
count as one resident day.
(3) If
the provider does not make refunds on behalf of a resident for unused days in
case of death or discharge, and if the bed is available and actually used by
another resident, these unused days shall not be counted as a resident day.
(4) Any bed days paid for by the
resident, or any other party on behalf of the resident, before an admission
date shall not be counted as a resident day.
(5) The total resident days for the cost
report period shall be precise and documented; an estimate of the days of care
provided shall not be acceptable.
(6) In order to facilitate accurate and
uniform reporting of resident days, the accumulated method format set forth in
data specifications in diskettes furnished by the agency shall be used for all
residents beginning January 1, 1999. The monthly reporting, using the diskette,
shall be submitted to the agency as supportive documentation for the resident
days shown on the cost report forms and shall be submitted at the time the cost
report and required documents are submitted to the agency. Monthly census
summaries shall include reporting for nursing facility or nursing
facility-mental health, other residential days with shared nursing facility or
nursing facility-mental health costs, and day care hours. Each provider shall
keep these monthly records for each resident, whether a Kansas medical
assistance program recipient or a non-recipient. If the provider fails to keep
accurate records of resident days in accordance with the accumulated method
format, the assumed occupancy rate shall be 100 percent.
(7) The provider shall report the total
number of Kansas medical assistance program resident days in addition to the
total resident days on the uniform cost report form.
(8) The provider shall report the total
number of other residential days with shared nursing facility or nursing
facility-mental health costs on the uniform cost report form.
(b) Respite care days shall be
counted as resident days and reported on the monthly census forms.
(c) Day care and day treatment shall be
counted as one resident day for 18 hours of service. The total hours of service
provided for all residents during the cost reporting year shall be divided by
18 hours to convert to resident days.
(d) This regulation shall take effect on and
after January 1, 1999.
