CMS releases final hospital/CAH CoPs

Last week, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) posted the final rule reforming the Hospital/CAH CoPs. This rule is available on display copy only and will publish officially to the Federal Register on May 16th. The DC office is in the process of completing a thorough review of the final rule and will pull a team together to discuss the provisions, and will provide a comparative analysis of the final provisions to the comments that Joint Commission submitted.
