Hop On Hospice Cap Data
Published on Fri Jan 29, 2021
If you think you may be anywhere near your hospice aggregate cap for 2020, be sure to hop on downloading your PS&R data right away. Why? Self-determined cap reports are due on or before March 1, 2021, for the 2020 cap year, which ended on September 30, 2020, reminds consulting firm The Health Group in Morgantown, West Virginia. Securing provider statistical and reimbursement data will “potentially minimize any cap liability that needs to be paid at this time,” the firm advises in its electronic newsletter.
