Overview
- AHCCCS publishes one fee-for-service (FFS) per diem schedule rather than a rate for each home.
- It has three resident levels of care (Level I-III) and four areas: Urban (Maricopa/Pima/Pinal), Rural, Flagstaff zips and Tucson zips. 10/1/2026 urban rates are $212.27 (Level I), $232.06 (II) and $275.26 (III); rural $205.65-$266.45.
- The schedule was originally built from three statewide components: primary care by level and area (nursing minutes x cost-report wages), statewide indirect care and statewide capital.
- But the state plan has applied no inflation factor since 10/1/2015, so increases now come as ad hoc fee-schedule changes, lately a January 1 minimum-wage bump.
- Almost all NF days are paid by ALTCS managed care contractors at negotiated rates, with the FFS schedule as the benchmark.
- Quality DAP adds 0.75-2.25%.
What matters in Arizona
- One statewide FFS schedule: $212.27-$275.26/day urban (10/1/2026) by resident level, not a rate per home.
- ALTCS managed care plans (Banner, Mercy Care, UnitedHealthcare) pay nearly all nursing home days at negotiated rates; no FFS floor.
- The FFS schedule rose only about 3% from 10/1/2023 to 10/1/2026; no inflation factor since 2015.
- A $20.80 per non-Medicare day provider tax ($2.40 for high-Medicaid homes) funds about $95M a year in per-day supplemental payments.
- Quality DAP adds 0.75%-2.25% for CYE 2027; 112 nursing homes qualified (41 at the full 2.25%).
- Medicaid pays the full Medicare Part A coinsurance on SNF days 21-100, not the usual lesser-of $0.
Frequently asked
Does Arizona Medicaid set a separate nursing home rate for each facility?
No. AHCCCS publishes one FFS schedule by resident level (I-III) and area. On 10/1/2026 urban rates were $212.27, $232.06 and $275.26. ALTCS plans, which pay nearly all days, negotiate their own rates with each home.
How does Arizona Medicaid pay Medicare SNF coinsurance for dual-eligible residents?
In full. ACOM 201 requires ALTCS contractors to pay 100% of the Part A SNF coinsurance for days 21-100, even when their Medicaid nursing facility rate is lower than Medicare's payment.
Which Arizona nursing homes pay the lower $2.40 provider assessment?
Homes with enough Medicaid days to pass the federal slope test pay $2.40 instead of $20.80 per non-Medicare day: 21 of 95 assessed homes in FFY 2026. CCRCs and homes with 58 or fewer beds are exempt.
How much is paid outside the posted rate in Arizona?
Moderate: about $95M a year in assessment-funded per-day supplemental payments, roughly 13-14% of base NF spending.
Does Arizona require a minimum share of spending on care?
None found.

Cost basis
- Uses cost reports
Yes
- Cost report
Nursing Care Institution Uniform Accounting Report (UAR), filed with ADHS within 150 days of fiscal year end (AAC R9-11-204), plus the Medicare cost report if applicable. The UAR now mainly feeds the provider assessment (Medicaid, Medicare and total days; net patient revenue).
- Base year and rebasing
No regular rebasing. Under 4.19-D II.5, rates were updated each year by inflation factors from 10/1/2002, but 'for rates effective from October 1, 2011 to September 30, 2013, and from October 1, 2015 and thereafter, no inflation factor will be applied.' Since then the schedule has moved only by ad hoc fee-schedule changes: +1.2% on 10/1/2023, then January 1 minimum-wage (Prop 206) increases of about 0.5-0.8% in 2024, 2025 and 2026. The October 2024, 2025 and 2026 updates were flat.
- Components
Component Method Notes primary care Statewide price by level of care (I-III) and area. Average nursing minutes per level (from the PAS-based classification) x average RN/LPN/aide wages from Arizona cost and wage reports, urban vs rural (4.19-D, 2005 text per MACPAC baseline). The only component that varies by level and area. Not recalculated in recent years; moved only by ad hoc increases. indirect care Single statewide rate: the Medicaid-day-weighted mean of facility indirect cost per day, excluding outliers beyond 2 SD (2005 method). Supplies, housekeeping, laundry, food, admin. capital Single statewide rate from capital costs at a minimum 85% occupancy, plus historic property taxes and insurance (4.19-D p.8). No fair rental value; does not vary by home. Differential Adjusted Payment 0.75% per measure met, up to 2.25% on top of the schedule (CYE 2027). See quality_incentive. - Inflation
None since 10/1/2015 (4.19-D II.5). Historically the DRI market basket (wages) and CPI medical care (indirect costs).
Verified October 11, 2026
Case mix
- System
State index
- Applied at
Resident-level
- How it works
Each member is billed under the revenue code for their own level of care (191 Level I, 192 Level II, 193 Level III), so each resident's day pays that level's rate (FFS manual ch. 22; 4.19-D p.8).
- Classification
Three AHCCCS levels of care (I, II, III) set by the ALTCS MCO case manager on the Uniform Assessment Tool (AMPM 1620); the PAS decides ALTCS eligibility only, plus negotiated rates for ventilator-dependent, sub-acute and specialty care. Not RUG or PDPM.
- Applies to
The whole per diem: the primary care component differs by level, while indirect care and capital are the same for all levels.
- Acuity measured from
Not applicable: there is no facility CMI. Each member's level comes from the MCO case manager's UAT review (at least every 180 days in a nursing home).
- Updated
Per member when reassessed; the schedule itself changes on October 1 and January 1.
- Move to PDPM
None. Arizona never based NF payment on RUG case mix, so the October 2023 end of CMS RUG support forced no change.
Verified October 11, 2026
Low-acuity residents
None. Level I ($212.27 urban, 10/1/2026) is the lowest paid level; there is no reduced or flat rate for low-acuity residents. Services to a member who needs a lower level of care than they are receiving (per PAS/reassessment) are not covered (FFS manual ch. 22 Limitations), and people who do not meet NF level of care are not ALTCS-eligible. Checked: 4.19-D, FFS manual ch. 22, FY27 rate file.
Verified October 11, 2026
Capital
Included in the statewide price: one statewide capital component (depreciation, leases, interest, property taxes; at least 85% occupancy in the calculation), the same for every home and level (4.19-D). No fair rental value system.
Verified October 11, 2026
Budget adjustment factor
No explicit across-the-board factor, but 4.19-D II.5 suspends the inflation update: none was applied 10/1/2011-9/30/2013 or from 10/1/2015 on. Schedule changes since then are discretionary (e.g. +1.2% on 10/1/2023, January 1 minimum-wage increases, flat Octobers in 2024-2026).
Verified October 11, 2026
Add-ons and money outside the rate
Paid outside the posted rate
- Level
moderate
- Estimate
About 13-14% of base. Derived by comparing the CYE 2027 NF-SP estimate ($95.4M, ALTCS-EPD) with about $700M of CYE 2025 ALTCS-EPD nursing facility base spending. The base figure sums NF PMPM x NF member months across the certification's rate-cell exhibits.
- Components
NF-SP assessment-funded directed payment: about $95.4M/yr (EPD). DAP (0.75-2.25%) is paid inside the rate, not off it. No IGT/UPL public-home program.
Verified October 11, 2026
Payments by owner type
- Applies
yes
- Detail
Limited. (1) IHS and PL 93-638 tribal nursing facilities are paid the federal OMB all-inclusive rate per Medicaid day instead of the schedule (4.19-D I.A). They are also exempt from the assessment (if on a reservation) and from DAP. (2) Arizona State Veterans' Homes are exempt from the assessment and ineligible for NF-SP. There is no county or hospital IGT program that pays public homes more than private ones.
- Funding
The tribal all-inclusive rate is federally funded (100% FMAP for IHS/638 services). No IGT.
Verified October 11, 2026
Quality program
- Active
Yes
- Program
Nursing Facility Differential Adjusted Payment. It is set by an annual AHCCCS public notice, written into 4.19-D for FFS, and run as a 42 CFR 438.6(c) directed payment for MCOs. NFs have been eligible since CYE 2018 (10/1/2017).
- Funding
A uniform percentage increase built into ALTCS capitation (no separate pool), paid from state general fund plus federal match. AHCCCS intends DAPs 'not to become part of a provider's base reimbursement.'
- Size
No dollar pool is stated. Up to 2.25% of the rate per qualifying home for CYE 2027 (up to 2.0% in CYE 2024-2026).
- Paid as
Per-diem rate increase on every Title XIX claim/encounter for the contract year; MCOs must raise contracted rates by the same percentage.
- Measures

Provider tax
- Charged
per non-Medicare day
- Standard amount
$20.80 per annual patient day other than Medicare days (Medicare FFS, MA/SNP and Medicare hospice), from the most recent UAR; paid quarterly to the Department of Revenue. The same rate appears in the FFY 2023-2026 summaries; the rule was last amended effective 9/22/2022.
- Tiers
Who Test Amount Homes with enough annual Medicaid patient days to reach a slope of at least 1 under the 42 CFR 433.68(e)(2) test (21 of 95 assessed homes in FFY 2026) medicaid_utilization $2.40 per non-Medicare day Continuing care retirement communities ccrc exempt Facilities with 58 or fewer beds size exempt Tribally owned or operated facilities on a reservation; Arizona Veterans' Homes public exempt ICF/IID facilities; out-of-state facilities other exempt - Lower for high-Medicaid homes
yes
- Returned in the rate
Not in the per diem. It comes back through NF-SP, a uniform dollar amount per Medicaid bed day paid quarterly (via MCOs for managed care days, by AHCCCS for FFS days). FFY 2026 assessment $34.0M; CYE 2027 ALTCS-EPD NF-SP about $95.4M. Homes may raise charges to other payers but may not show the tax as a separate line item (A.R.S. 36-2999.54).
Verified October 11, 2026
Provider tax notes
Nursing Facility Quality Assessment (A.R.S. 36-2999.51-.57; AAC R9-28-702), in place since 10/1/2012 under a CMS waiver of the broad-based and uniform rules. $20.80 per non-Medicare day; $2.40 for high-Medicaid homes; capped at 3.5% of net patient revenue. FFY 2026: 95 homes assessed, $34.0M. Returned only through the NF-SP supplemental payments, not the per diem. The statute sunsets 10/1/2031.
Verified October 11, 2026
Supplemental payments
Nursing Facility Supplemental Payments (NF-SP, AAC R9-28-703), funded by the NF assessment plus federal match. Each quarter AHCCCS splits the fund between MCO-paid and FFS-paid Medicaid bed days. The MCO share is a 'per bed day enhanced support uniform increase' paid through ALTCS contractors as a 42 CFR 438.6(c) directed payment, 98% passed through within 20 days. The FFS share is 99% paid directly by bed-day ratio. CYE 2027 ALTCS-EPD estimate: about $95.4M including premium tax (preprint submitted; CMS approval pending as of 7/30/2026). Homes must be open on the payment date; Arizona State Veterans' Homes are ineligible. No IGT or public-home UPL program found.

Managed care for long-term care
- Status
yes
- Detail
ALTCS has used capitated program contractors for long-term care since it began (AAC Title 9 Ch. 28 adopted effective 10/1/1988). CYE 2027 ALTCS-EPD contractors: Banner-UFC, Mercy Care and UnitedHealthcare Community Plan, each paired with a D-SNP. No day limit. Source: CYE 27 ALTCS-EPD capitation rate certification (7/30/2026), Table 1b.
Verified October 11, 2026
Who pays
managed_ltss (ALTCS - Arizona Long Term Care System). ALTCS-EPD (elderly/physically disabled) contractors pay NF care under capitation: Banner-University Family Care (Central, South GSAs), Mercy Care (Central, South/Pima) and UnitedHealthcare Community Plan (North, Central). ALTCS-DD members go through DES/DDD. AHCCCS pays FFS directly only for Tribal ALTCS members, acute-care FFS members (up to 90 NF days per contract year) and gaps before enrollment (4.19-D I.A; FFS manual ch. 22).
Verified October 11, 2026
Managed care rate floor
No general floor. The CYE 27 ALTCS-EPD rate certification says the only minimum-fee-schedule directed payment is for Vaccines for Children; NF rates are negotiated. Two NF-specific directed payments do bind MCOs. (1) DAP: MCOs 'are required to pass through DAP increases to their contracted rates to match the corresponding AHCCCS FFS rate increase percentages' (CYE 2027 DAP notice). (2) NF-SP: a uniform per-bed-day supplemental payment that MCOs pass through at 98% within 20 days (AAC R9-28-703(B)).

Verified October 11, 2026
Bed hold
- Hospital stays
Paid at the LOA rate, which equals the Level I rate (100% of Level I, e.g. $212.27 urban on 10/1/2026). 12 bed-hold days per contract year for adults 21+.
- Leave days
Paid at the Level I rate, 9 days per contract year for adults. Members under 21 get 21 days combined (therapeutic and bed hold). The leave must be in the plan of care and prior-authorized.
- Occupancy rule
None.
- Notes
Revenue codes 183 (therapeutic) and 185 (bed hold) must be split-billed. Paid bed-hold days count as resident days for the provider tax and NF-SP (A.R.S. 36-2999.51, 36-2999.55).

Personal needs allowance
- Per month
149.1
- Effective
2026-01-01 (15% of the 2026 SSI federal benefit rate of $994; calculated, not posted)
- Notes
AAC R9-28-408(E)(5)(a): PNA = 15% of the FBR for a full calendar month in a medical institution, raised by court-ordered child support or spousal maintenance garnishments. It rises with the SSI COLA each January. HCBS members, including those in assisted living, keep 300% of the FBR.

Medicare coinsurance days
- Method
full
- Rule
ACOM 201 (eff. 10/1/2023) says contractors 'shall pay 100% of the member cost sharing amount for any Medicare Part A SNF days (21 through 100) even if the Contractor has a Medicaid Nursing Facility (NF) rate less than the amount paid by Medicare.' The FFS manual (ch. 22) likewise says AHCCCS pays the full Medicare coinsurance minus other TPL and share of cost. For other services, cost sharing plus Medicare's payment is capped at the contractor's rate (lesser-of). ACOM 201 covers Medicare Advantage members, but whether the 100% SNF exception also covers MA SNF copays was not confirmed.
- Effect
Homes receive the full Part A daily coinsurance for duals on days 21-100, less any share of cost.
Verified October 11, 2026
Required care spending
