Jimmo v. Sebelius Information
On January 24, 2013, the U.S District Court for the District of Vermont approved a settlement agreement in the case of Jimmo v. Sebelius. The settlement clarifies skilled care delivery for skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), home health (HH), inpatient rehabilitation (IRFs), and outpatient therapy (OPT) benefits.
