Virginia HB855 repeals estate recovery for Medicaid-financed nursing facility care.
Virginia HB855 repeals estate recovery for Medicaid-financed nursing facility care, preventing the Department of Medical Assistance Services from seeking repayment from the estate of a deceased individual. The bill also mandates that the Department promulgate regulations to implement these changes. It limits the recoverable portion of managed care payments to the portion attributable to recoverable services or the capitated rate, whichever is lower. The Department may adjust provider manuals and regulatory guidance documents as necessary.
