- Summary
- The purpose of this memorandum is to provide further guidance regarding changes in the Balanced Budget Refinement Act of 1999 regarding nursing home residents who are receiving end stage renal disease (ESRD) services. Some states have erroneously cited a SNF for not having an arrangement with an ESRD facility when the SNF neither provides nor bills Medicare for dialysis services.
