Is USPO/USPSO open to a reimbursement model that aligns with other payor practices that would allow for the full per diem rate on date of admission, and no partial payment on date of discharge?
A. The USPO/USPSO will follow the RFP as outlined despite the difference of other payor practices. For invoicing purposes per diem rates are calculated based on the following:
a. A calendar day unit (midnight to midnight) for continuous placement of over 24 hours; and
b. Is prorated/calculated as one-fourth of a calendar day for (1) six hours or less, or (2) when a
defendant/person under supervision is absent from contractor’s facility without USPO/USPSO’s or vendor’s permission for over twenty-four (24) hours.
