Current Status

CY 2010 Medicare Outpatient PPS

On August 31, the AAMC submitted a comment letter on the calendar year (CY) 2010 Medicare hospital outpatient prospective payment system (OPPS) proposed rule.

On July 20, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) posted in the Federal Register [74 Fed. Reg. 35232] its CY 2010 proposed rule that contains changes to the OPPS as well as proposed payment rates for Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs). If finalized, changes to both the OPPS and the ASC payment system will be implemented Jan. 1, 2010. More>>

The AAMC has prepared a summary and analysis of the proposed rule.
