On February 28, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a letter to Community Based Alternatives, Community Living Assistance and Support Services, Case Management Agency, Direct Service Agency, and Primary Home Care Providers, informing them about new rules related to Consolidated Cost Reporting Requirements for the 2007 Cost Report.
For details on the new rule, including how and when to submit a schedule, download the letter here.
The Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services informed Nursing Facility, Intermediate Care Facilities/Mental Retardation, and Community Program Providers that the U.S. Treasury will start sending out Economic Stimulus Payments (rebates) to eligible individuals in Texas. From the letter:
In most cases, taxpayers who have federal filing requirements will not have to do anything other than file their 2007 federal tax return and the Internal Revenue Services (IRS) will take care of the rest.
However, there are some Texas citizens, particularly those served by the Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) who do not have a federal tax filing requirement but may be eligible for a rebate. These people will need to file a 2007 federal tax return to be eligible for the rebate. The IRS would like to work with your office to reach these people.
Download the letter and attached document for more information about the rebate.
