The department of job and family services shall make its best efforts each year to calculate rates under sections 5111.20 to 5111.331 of the Revised Code in time to use them to make the payments due to providers by the fifteenth day of August. If the department is unable to calculate the rates so that they can be paid by that date, the department shall pay each provider the rate calculated for the provider’s nursing facilities and intermediate care facilities for the mentally retarded under those sections at the end of the previous fiscal year. If the department also is unable to calculate the rates to make the payments due by the fifteenth day of September and the fifteenth day of October, the department shall pay the previous fiscal year’s rate to make those payments. The department may increase by five per cent the previous fiscal year’s rate paid for any facility pursuant to this section at the request of the provider. The department shall use rates calculated for the current fiscal year to make the payments due by the fifteenth day of November.

If the rate paid to a provider for a facility pursuant to this section is lower than the rate calculated for the facility for the current fiscal year, the department shall pay the provider the difference between the two rates for the number of days for which the provider was paid for the facility pursuant to this section. If the rate paid for a facility pursuant to this section is higher than the rate calculated for it for the current fiscal year, the provider shall refund to the department the difference between the two rates for the number of days for which the provider was paid for the facility pursuant to this section.
