Book Description
In the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, Congress mandated that the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) implement a Prospective Payment System (PPS) for inpatient rehabilitation under Medicare. This new PPS will be implemented beginning January 1, 2002. This report describes the research that RAND performed to support HCFA's efforts to design, develop, and implement this Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility PPS, or IRF PPS. It presents recommendations concerning the payment system and also discusses our plans for further research on the monitoring and refinement of the PPS. The new PPS will apply to rehabilitation hospitals and to distinct rehabilitation units of acute care hospitals that were excluded from the acute care PPS. Medicare patients in such facilities must receive intensive therapy (generally at least three hours per day). In addition, 75 percent of each facility's patients must have one often specified problems related to neurological or musculoskeletal disorders or burns. Since 1982, Medicare payment for these rehabilitation facilities has been made under the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA). The payment amount depends on a per-case target amount that is calculated from historical costs at the facility trended forward and on the hospital's actual cost per case. Under TEFRA, there is no adjustment for changes in a hospital's case mix or for outlier cases. This lack of adjustment creates incentives for providers to specialize in relatively less-expensive cases and, as a result, might limit beneficiary access. TEFRA pays for discharges that do not include a full course of rehabilitation (e.g., short stays for evaluation, transfer cases) as full cases. These payments in excess of costs may have both quality and cost-control implications. TEFRA was widely perceived to be unfair to older hospitals.

Medicare Programs - Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Prospective Payment System for Federal Fiscal Year 2015 (US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Regulation) (CMS) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Medicare Programs - Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Prospective Payment System for Federal Fiscal Year 2015 (US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Regulation) (CMS) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This final rule updates the prospective payment rates for inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs) for federal fiscal year (FY) 2015 as required by the statute. This final rule finalizes a policy to collect data on the amount and mode (that is, Individual, Concurrent, Group, and Co-Treatment) of therapy provided in the IRF setting according to therapy discipline, revises the list of diagnosis and impairment group codes that presumptively meet the "60 percent rule" compliance criteria, provides a way for IRFs to indicate on the Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility-Patient Assessment Instrument (IRF-PAI) form whether the prior treatment and severity requirements have been met for arthritis cases to presumptively meet the "60 percent rule" compliance criteria, and revises and updates quality measures and reporting requirements under the IRF quality reporting program (QRP). This rule also delays the effective date for the revisions to the list of diagnosis codes that are used to determine presumptive compliance under the "60 percent rule" that were finalized in FY 2014 IRF PPS final rule and adopts the revisions to the list of diagnosis codes that are used to determine presumptive compliance under the "60 percent rule" that are finalized in this rule. This final rule also addresses the implementation of the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM), for the IRF prospective payment system (PPS), which will be effective when ICD-10-CM becomes the required medical data code set for use on Medicare claims and IRF-PAI submissions.
