The Postacute Care Payment Reform Demonstration (PAC-PRD) was among the hot topics at the April Skilled Nursing Facility/Long-Term Care Open Door Forum.
The PAC-PRD has begun the data collection phase in its first market, Boston. CMS will roll out the demo in the remaining nine markets by September.
CMS officials strongly urged skilled nursing facilities (SNF) and other postacute providers in the other nine markets or surrounding locations to contact the demonstration contractor, RTI International.
