101 C.M.R. 413.03 – Rate Provisions

(1) Services Included in the Rate. The approved rate includes payment for all care and services that are part of the program of services of an eligible provider, as explicitly set forth by the purchasing governmental unit(s).
(2) Reimbursement as Full Payment. Each eligible provider must, as a condition of payment by any purchasing governmental unit, accept the approved rate as full payment and discharge of all obligations for the services rendered. Payment by the purchasing governmental unit for services rendered to the client are reduced by the amount of any payment from any other source.
(3) Payment Limitations. No purchasing governmental unit may pay less than, or more than, the approved rate, except as cited in 101 CMR 413.03(2), (4), and (5).
(4) Administrative Adjustment for Extraordinary Circumstances. A method whereby, subject to availability of funds, a purchasing governmental unit may provide additional resource allocations to a qualified provider in response to unusual and unforeseen circumstances that substantially increase the cost of service delivery in ways not contemplated in the development of current rates. It must be demonstrated that such cost increases gravely threaten the stability of service provision such that client or consumer access to necessary services is at risk. The purchasing governmental unit will evaluate the need for the administrative adjustment, determine whether funding is available, and convey that information to EOHHS for review to determine the amount of any adjustment.
(5) Approved Rates. Except for the rates established for substance use disorder treatment, the rates set forth in 101 CMR 413.03 govern the payment rates for services purchased by the Department of Children and Families, the Department of Mental Health, and the Department of Youth Services provided pursuant to contracts executed under the departments’ FY 2013 or subsequent procurements. The approved rate is the lower of the provider’s charge or amount accepted as payment from another payer or the rate listed in 101 CMR 413.03.
