| Copayments could be reduced under OPPS proposed rule |
| CMS' 2009 Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) proposed rule might lead to a reduction in the copayment amount for services at hospitals that have not met their quality measure reporting requirements.
Hospitals reporting required outpatient quality measures in 2009 will receive a 2% inflation update. Hospitals not reporting these measures will not receive this update. |
