| 2014-10319 | Medicare Program; Prospective Payment System and Consolidated Billing for Skilled Nursing Facilities for FY 2015 | Proposed Rule | This proposed rule would update the payment rates used under the prospective payment system (PPS) for skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) for fiscal year (FY) 2015. In addition, it includes a proposal to adopt the most recent Office of Management and Budget (OMB) statistical area delineations to identify a facility's urban or rural status for the purpose of determining which set of rate tables would apply to the facility and to determine the SNF PPS wage index including a proposed one-year transition with a blended wage index for all providers for FY 2015. It also includes a discussion of the SNF therapy payment research currently underway within CMS. This proposed rule also proposes a revision to policies related to the Change of Therapy (COT) Other Medicare Required Assessment (OMRA). This proposed rule includes a discussion of a provision related to the Affordable Care Act involving Civil Money Penalties. Finally, this proposed rule includes a discussion of observed trends related to therapy utilization among SNF providers and a discussion of accelerating health information exchange in SNFs. | 2014-05-06 | 2014 | 5 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2014/05/06/2014-10319/medicare-program-prospective-payment-system-and-consolidated-billing-for-skilled-nursing-facilities | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-05-06/pdf/2014-10319.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services | 221,45 | This proposed rule would update the payment rates used under the prospective payment system (PPS) for skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) for fiscal year (FY) 2015.
