(2)The current VA state home program per diem rate for domiciliary care, as set by the Secretary under 38 U.S.C. 1741(a)(1).
(d)Rate of payments for service centers. The per diem amount for service centers shall be 1-8 of the lesser of the amount in paragraph (c)(1) or (c)(2) of this section, per hour, not to exceed eight
(8)hours in any day.
(e)Reimbursements. Per diem may be paid retroactively for services provided not more than three
(3)days before VA approval is given or where, through no fault of the recipient, per diem payments should have been made but were not made.
(f)Payments for absent veterans. VA will pay per diem up to a maximum of seventy-two
(72)consecutive hours for the scheduled or unscheduled absence of a veteran, or, in the case of an in-patient hospitalization, will pay per diem up to a maximum of seven
