Community Co-Stars Incentive Program

The Community Co-Stars incentive program provides an incentive payment to Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs) for helping Sunshine Health Long Term Care members continue to live in a community setting after they transition from a custodial nursing home stay.

Assisted Living Facility providers will receive $300 per month, for up to 12 months, for each member that remains in the ALF for a minimum of 16 days each month post nursing home transition.

Providers are eligible for an incentive payment when qualified members stay in their facility post nursing home transition for a minimum of 16 days per month and do not readmit to a nursing facility. 

If the member expires during the month, the time that the member remained in the ALF will be considered. The ALF will receive $300 for the month the member passed away if payment criteria was met.

Incentive payments will be made monthly and accompanied by an explanation of payment.

To receive payment, providers will need to email a current W-9 annually to sunshine_accounts_pa@centene.com.
