Guest guest Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 I believe that is correct. For that reason, we do not allow living donors for non-Medicare recipients in Illinois.

From: TxFinancialCoordinators [mailto:TxFinancialCoordinators ] On Behalf Of ELIZONDO, FELICIA Sent: Wednesday, October 26, 2011 3:52 PM To: TxFinancialCoordinators Subject: Medicaid For Kidney Transplant: if a recipient does not qualify for Medicare and has Medicaid only which does not cover donors, can the donor evaluation, transplant and post transplant costs be applied to the cost report? In the literature I have read it states the recipient must be entitled to Medicare at the time of transplant for the donor services to be covered by Medicare. Is this correct?
