What is the IRF Specific Market Basket?
IHS Global Insight (IGI), Inc. is a nationally recognized economic and financial forecasting firm that CMS contracts to forecast components of the market baskets and multifactor productivity (MFP) percentages.
![Page 10: IRF PPS FY 2013 Update and Changes: What the CMS Notice ...MediLinks Inpatient + Documentation and Workflow Specific To IRF requirements + Improve compliance, patient and financial](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042312/5eda7bf227f03b15b839c3b2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
2016 FORMULA – Standard Payment
+ 2015 to 2016 Change
+ $15,198 to $15,529
![Page 11: IRF PPS FY 2013 Update and Changes: What the CMS Notice ...MediLinks Inpatient + Documentation and Workflow Specific To IRF requirements + Improve compliance, patient and financial](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042312/5eda7bf227f03b15b839c3b2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Impact for Non-Participation QRP
+ Non participation conversion factor (Starts fresh – not a cumulative penalty)
+ 2014 Calendar year of Non-Participation
+ 2% Payment Reduction based on 2016 Market Basket Value
+ - $305 less payment per 1.0 CMI treated or $15,224
![Page 12: IRF PPS FY 2013 Update and Changes: What the CMS Notice ...MediLinks Inpatient + Documentation and Workflow Specific To IRF requirements + Improve compliance, patient and financial](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042312/5eda7bf227f03b15b839c3b2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Payment Adjustment – QRP None Participation
+ At the time the proposed rule was prepared, CMS stated that 91, or 8% of the 1166 active Medicare-certified IRFs did not receive the full annual percentage increase for the FY 2015 annual payment update determination.
+ Just a few days before the cut off to report 2 indicators to National Health Safety Network, CMS pushed REMINDERS and MedLearn Matters 9106
http://www.cms.gov/Outreach-and-Education/Medicare-Learning-Network-MLN/MLNMattersArticles/Downloads/MM9106.pdf
Just a few days before the deadline, only 54% of Inpatient Rehab Hospitals/UNITS reported successfully to NHSN. We hope that gap was closed by 11:59 on May 15th!

Outlier Threshold Payments
+ CMS proposes to update the outlier threshold amount to $9,698 to maintain estimated outlier payments at approximately 3 percent of total estimated aggregate IRF payments for FY 2016.
+ A case qualifies for an outlier payment if the estimated cost of the case exceeds the adjusted outlier threshold.
+ CMS calculates the adjusted outlier threshold by adding the IRF PPS payment for the case (the CMG payment adjusted by all of the relevant facility-level adjustments) and the adjusted threshold amount (also adjusted by all of the relevant facility-level adjustments).
+ CMS then calculates the estimated cost of a case by multiplying the IRF’s overall CCR by the Medicare allowable covered charge. If the estimated cost of the case is higher than the adjusted outlier threshold, we make an outlier payment for the case equal to 80 percent of the difference between the estimated cost of the case and the outlier threshold.

• CMS stated that a patient’s need for intensive inpatient rehabilitative services for the treatment of one or more of these conditions would depend on the presence of additional comorbidities that caused significant decline in his or her functional ability to an extent that would necessitate treatment in an IRF.
• If the patient has one or more of the comorbiditieson the list of “ICD-10-CM Codes that Meet Presumptive Compliance Criteria,” then the patient would already qualify as meeting the presumptive compliance criteria.

1.) Active Polyarticular Arthritis
2.) Systemic Vasculidities,
3.) Severe or advanced osteoarthritis.
These were each described as having to have significant functional impairment of gait and ADL’s. Each of these conditions must also have not shown improvement after an appropriate sustained course of outpatient therapy just immediately preceding the rehabilitation admission. CMS felt that the factors indicating these conditions were met requires some disclosure to enable conditional application of the rule. THEY CAN STILL AUDIT.

• 2015 SAID THIS…
• CMS is proposing a validation of records process to randomly check accuracy of data submitted against medical records.
Validation –Random Selection Compliance Audit
![Page 46: IRF PPS FY 2013 Update and Changes: What the CMS Notice ...MediLinks Inpatient + Documentation and Workflow Specific To IRF requirements + Improve compliance, patient and financial](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042312/5eda7bf227f03b15b839c3b2/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
CMS proposes a suspension of this previously finalized policy…
Data accuracy validation will have no bearing on the applicable FY annual increase factor reduction for FY 2016 and subsequent years unless and until we propose to either reenact this policy, or propose to adopt a new validation policy through future notice-and-comment rulemaking.
Validation – Suspended!Random Selection Compliance Audit
