OPPS final rule holds no surprises
The 2010 outpatient prospective payment system/ambulatory surgery centers (OPPS/ASC) final rule, just issued by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) as we go to press, is basically unchanged from the proposed rule in areas impacting EDs, according to observers.
The CY 2010 OPPS/ASC final rule with comment period will appear in the Nov. 20 Federal Register. Comments on designated provisions are due by Dec. 29, 2009. CMS will respond to comments in the CY 2011 OPPS/ASC final rule.
For more information on the final CY 2010 policies for the OPPS and ASC payment system, please see the CMS web site at www.cms.hhs.gov/HospitalOutpatientPPS. You can send questions and comments to CMS at [email protected].
