Until 1998, nurse center billing was quite an easy thing to do since skilled nurse facilities (SNFs) could bill separately for their service. Since 1998, after the Balance Budget Act came into effect, several things about how SNFs claim their reimbursement have changed. The points below will outline the changes:
Challenges of Skilled Nursing Facility Billing
Producing SNF claims as part of consolidated billing requires the knowledge of codes as also familiarity with what is covered by Medicare A and what’s not. If something is not covered by Medicare A, then it may be covered by Medicare B. The SNF has to identify that and bill it separately.
On the other hand, payment on per diem basis means a fixed amount CMS pays to SNFs under Medicare A with which SNFs pay contracted nursing service providers for their services.
- Now SNFs have to produce their claim as part of consolidated billing under the Prospective Payment System (PPS)
- SNFs are paid by Medicare A on a per diem basis
Skilled Nursing Facility billing operates within one of the most regulatory-dense reimbursement frameworks in post-acute care — where revenue is governed by PDPM component capture, accurate RUG classification, and the precise documentation of therapy minutes, nursing intensity, and non-therapy ancillary services that CMS and payers audit continuously.
MBC acts as your Revenue Integrity Partner by ensuring that every SNF stay is reimbursed to its highest defensible PDPM accuracy, ICD-10 diagnosis sequencing correctly reflects clinical complexity, and payer policies around consolidated billing, Medicare Part A spell-of-illness management, and Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment windows are executed with precision — so your facility retains every dollar it clinically justifies.

Nursing Facilities are exposed to the below problems
- Inaccuracy of codes applied leading to rejection of claims
- Insufficiency of knowledge of items covered by Medicare A and B
- Fixed or per diem payments for services not accommodating cost borne by the nursing facility adequately - given that there is a degree of cost elasticity in the range of services offered by facilities, which the fixed rates often fail to encompass
The above two scenarios expose nursing facilities to two kinds of revenue leakage: one is via rejected claims; another is through underpayment of services.
Additionally, it’s often difficult to establish that the patient required the services provided by a nursing facility and excessive time spent on non-medical activities.
