RE: Facility Renovation Procedure and Forms

The information contained in this ALERT is to provide clarity on established procedures.

Alabama Administrative Code 560-X-22-.14(10) outlines the procedures and requirements for requesting an adjustment to the current asset value (CAV) of a nursing facility.

Please take note of the following:

* Renovation for the purpose of the Chapter will be defined as real and fixed

property changes to a nursing facility.

* The American Hospital Association publication, "Estimated Useful Lives of

Depreciable Hospital Assets," Tables 2, 3, and 4 will be used to determine real

and fixed property affected by this rule. The Alabama Medicaid Agency has

also granted the use of Table 5.

* Renovation costs must exceed 5% of the CAV to qualify for a CAV

adjustment.

* Prior to beginning renovations, facilities must request approval. Use the

Proposed Nursing Facility Renovation Project Form to request a Certificate of

Approval.

* Renovation projects will be issued a Certificate of Approval or a Notice of

Denial.

* Upon approval and completion of a renovation project, use the Completed Nursing Facility Renovation Project Form to request a CAV adjustment.

* Forms can be emailed to [email protected]or mailed to:
