Medicaid $270 Add-On Still in Effect
Kentucky Medicaid $270 add-on is still in effect: Many facilities have questioned whether they can currently bill Ky Medicaid for the additional $270 for COVID-19 positive patients. The Medicaid rate add-on of $270 became effective on April 1, 2020 and remains in effect until the Public Health Emergency (PHE) ends. Effective January 16, 2022, the Public Health Emergency was renewed. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) extends the PHE in 90 day increments.
