CMS is expected to publish several major final Medicare payment rules for 2015 in the coming days. The agency has already submitted to the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for regulatory clearance the final 2015 rules updating Medicare payments for outpatient hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, home health agencies, and end-stage renal disease facilities, along with reimbursement policy updates impacting suppliers of durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies. The final Medicare physician fee schedule rule is not yet at OMB, but it should be following shortly. While the text of the regulations are not yet available, we expect that the rules will be put on display at the Federal Register in the near future. We will be providing summaries of the final rules in future updates.
