Hello fellow peeps, I work for SNF and a resident of ours was admitted to the hospital for 2 days. For that month I totally forgot and billed Medi-cal (medicaid) for resident's full month stay at our SNF. Now the hospital is charging us the 2 days that they got denied from Medi-cal.
My question is, if they got per say $744.98 from Medicare already for those 2 days, why would they charge us (SNF) $7116.92 for the Medi-cal portion of it? Doesn't it apply to hospital (impatient) too, the 80% Medicare and 20% to secondary (Medi-cal)? Please shine some light on this for me.
Thank you!!
