What’s happening: Following the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS’) fourth quarter (Q4) 2024 data release, CHA DataSuite has issued a hospital-specific analysis of the Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) margins that show its trends from federal fiscal year (FFY) 2014 through FFY 2023.
What else to know: Approximately 93% of hospitals provided their FFY 2023 cost reports for this CMS data release.
The analysis shows Medicare margins for the following areas/units: inpatient, outpatient, graduate medical education, psychiatric unit, rehabilitation unit, skilled-nursing unit, and swing beds. The margins are shown graphically for hospitals.
This analysis excludes COVID-19 public health emergency funding, including both provider relief fund and small business association loan forgiveness amounts since that may not have been used solely for Medicare FFS activity.
