Tennessee Incorrectly Reported Costs for Individuals With Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities

Tennessee calculated its payment rates in accordance with Federal requirements in State fiscal years 2010 and 2011. However, Tennessee incorrectly reported costs on its CMS-64 for reimbursement of services provided to beneficiaries with intellectual and developmental disabilities in the category for nursing facility (line 3 on the CMS-64) instead of in the category for intermediate care facilities for beneficiaries with intellectual and developmental disabilities (lines 4a and 4b on the CMS-64). Nevertheless, this incorrect reporting did not result in Tennessee receiving any overpayments from the Federal Government.
