FSSA Removes CMS Training Requirement for Enhanced COVID-19 Rate Due to the ongoing increase in COVID-19 cases across the state and the potential rollout of the COVID-19 vaccination for nursing facilities next week, FSSA is waiving the requirement for nursing facility providers to complete the CMS COVID-19 Training in order to receive the 4.2% rate enhancement for November 1 through December 30. All nursing facility providers will continue receive the rate enhancement for November 1 through December 30, regardless of whether the CMS COVID-19 Training is completed. Instead, the primary focus during this time should be patient care. FSSA still strongly encourage providers to complete the training. FSSA will post this update to the IHCP portal and the Myers & Stauffer website. Indiana Department of Health COVID-19 Live Updates 12-10-20 NOON EST HOPE members are encouraged to be on this call.
