12VAC30-110-1080. Projection of institutional care expenses.
Institutional care expenses, except for expenses for services rendered in an acute care facility, shall be projected. The amount of the projected expenses shall be based on the Medicaid per diem rate or a combination of actual incurred institutional expenses and projected expenses at the Medicaid per diem rate. Projection of institutional care expenses does not preclude deduction of actually incurred expenses and in some instances requires the use of a combination of actually incurred expenses and projected expenses. Those circumstances are:
1. When the projected institutional care expense is less than the individual's spenddown liability for the budget period; and
2. When there is current liability for bills from a period prior to the current retroactive and prospective budget periods. A bill written off as a bad debt is not a current liability.
