KNOW THE SECRETS OF SNF 
BILLING GUIDELINES
Skilled nursing homes provide long-term care through support with everyday 
activities, rehabilitation, and medication and treatment administration. 
Families of elders considering placing their loved ones in skilled nursing or 
assisted living must first grasp nursing home billing and coding
 guidelines in order to determine what type of care they will require and who 
will pay for it. Some of the secrets of SNF billing and coding guidelines are as 
follows:

• Billing Cycle:
Nursing homes are billed on a monthly basis. Skilled nursing facilities should use 
Form CMS-1450 when paying for Medicaid Part A. These monthly claims must be 
submitted on time following a resident’s:
     Discharge
     Drop from skilled care in an SNF
     Exhaustion of their benefit period
• Level of Care Provided :
Long-term care facilities give varying levels of care to their residents. Independent 
living facilities do not provide the same degree of CARE as assisted living facilities. 
In the meanwhile, an assisted living facility will not offer the same degree of care as 
a memory care centre.

• Type of Insurance Accepted:
If a senior qualifies for Medicare Part A, Medicare will cover the entire cost of 
their stay in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) for up to 20 days. From day 21 to day 
100, a variable daily coinsurance rate takes effect, with Medicare continuing to 
cover a portion of the stay. Staff should continue to submit monthly claims for 
non-covered services delivered to the resident after the benefits period has 
expired. This ensures that the claims system can track the benefit period 
appropriately. Medicare Part A covers the following services:
       Temporary inpatient care, whether it be in a hospital setting or a skilled nursing 
facility.
       Hospice care services
       Home health care services
• Leave of Absence

OUTSOURCING – OLD BUT ALL-TIME BEST SOLUTION!
Maximizing and improving the skilled nursing facility billing process will help 
nursing homes earn more money. When nursing facilities administrators 
understand their SNF billing guidelines and implement them accurately, they 
ensure their facilities can maximize reimbursements for the services they provide.

SNF billing rules and regulations, insurance policies, and payment procedures.
