Nursing homes push higher Medicaid payments in Florida
Mount Dora’s Medic Home Health Center joins about 200 facilities statewide in urging the Florida Legislature and Governor Askew to raise the skilled nursing care cap from 550 to 615 dollars per month. A state cost study shows average monthly cost at 667 dollars, highlighting a gap between reimbursement and actual costs. Governor Askew proposed 585, the House approved, while a Senate subcommittee moved from 615 to 600 dollars. Abel of Mount Dora warns the state cannot continue subsidizing Medicaid.
