Publicly Available Cost Reports
Wisconsin Department of Health Services makes provider submitted cost reports publicly available.
Family Care MCO Rates by RUG/PDPM Category
The Family Care MCO rates spreadsheets display nursing facility PDPM rates by Nursing and NTA category for use by Family Care MCOs. The spreadsheets provide rates by state fiscal year, going back seven years. Each file may contain listings of interim and final rates along with multiple rate effective dates. Prior to January 1, 2022, RUG-IV (48 cell) rates were included. Effective January 1, 2022, the spreadsheets will provide rates for each PDPM Nursing and NTA category.
The current state fiscal year spreadsheet is updated monthly, around the 3rd business day of each month, until FFS rate setting is complete for that rate year. If you have questions regarding the spreadsheet or rates, please contact your nursing home’s assigned auditor. Contact information for the WI Department of Health Services’ Nursing Home Policy and Rate Setting Section is available here.

HIPPS codes will be required for non-developmentally disabled inhouse nursing home per diem claims billed to Medicaid fee-for-service for dates of service on and after January 1, 2022. This document has also been posted on DHS’ website at https://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/nh-rates/resources.htm.
