CHA DataSuite has released hospital-specific analyses, detailing the Centers for Medicare & Services calendar year (CY) 2021 home health prospective payment system proposed rule. The analysis is intended to show providers how Medicare fee-for-service payments would change from CY 2020 to CY 2021 based on the policies set forth in the proposed rule.
Proposed rule payment changes modeled in the analysis include market-basket update, Affordable Care Act-mandated productivity reduction, case-mix budget neutrality, wage index and labor share change, rural add-on, and all other adjustments.
Comments on the proposed rule can be submitted electronically at www.regulations.gov by Aug. 24.
