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 ProviderAudit@medicaid.alabama.gov
or mailed to:
