The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has issued a fiscal year (FY) 2022 Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (IRF) Prospective Payment System (PPS) final rule, which updates Medicare payment policies and rates for IRFs, finalizes policies under the IRF Quality Reporting Program (QRP) and includes a Medicare Durable Medical Equipment Prosthetics, Orthotics, and Supplies (DMEPOS) payment provision from a 2018 interim final rule. FY 2022 IRF PPS payment rates and policies will be effective on October 1, 2021.
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed work, and providers and healthcare revenue cycle solutions in the USA aren’t exempt.
