What it is and who needs it.
What the recuperative care bond guarantees
Recuperative care (medical respite) gives people experiencing homelessness a place to recover after a hospital stay. To bill Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) for it, a provider must enroll with the Department of Human Services and file a surety bond on form DHS-8748 as part of enrollment.
The bond is a Medicaid-program protection guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to bill honestly and repay any overpayments or improperly paid claims. It follows the federal provider-screening framework (42 CFR 455.105), which lets the state require a surety bond from enrolling providers.
This is the $100,000 version, for providers receiving more than $300,000 in annual Medicaid payments. If your volume is at or below that threshold, the $50,000 bond applies instead — use the $50,000 page, or send us your situation and we'll confirm which one you need.
