Industry Note:
Deadline For Hospice Cap Reporting Is Almost Here
Published on Fri Mar 18, 2016
Don’t miss the March 31 deadline to calculate and self-report your hospice aggregate cap, MAC CGS urges in a message to hospices.
“Hospices are responsible for obtaining their own Provider Statistical and Reimbursement (PS&R) summary from the CMS website,” CGS warns. “CGS will not provide this to hospices.”
Instructions, forms and other guidance are available at http://cgsmedicare.com/hhh/financial/hospice_caps.html.
