Archived: June 1, 2016 (Previous Versions) |
An IMD is a hospital, nursing facility, or other institution or residential program that has 17 or more beds and is primarily engaged in providing diagnosis, treatment, or care of people with mental diseases. An IMD provides treatment for people with mental illness or chemical dependency (CD). See the Institutions for Mental Diseases (IMDs) section in the Eligibility Groups and Bases of Eligibility chapter for specific health care program eligibility criteria for residents of IMDs.
Exception: People who meet all other eligibility requirements for Refugee Medical Assistance (RMA) are eligible for RMA regardless of their living arrangement.
IMD facilities are assigned codes by type of program. It is important to code a client’s living arrangement correctly in the MMIS system so that payments are made from the appropriate funding source.

l 49 State Sex Offender and Forensic Programs - IMD.
l 50 Regional Treatment Center (RTC) - Mental Illness (MI) Psychiatric Inpatient Hospital - IMD.
l 51 Rule 31 IMD - Chemical Dependency (CD).
