  • Title: Medicare program; elimination of Medicare indirect subsidy for private rooms--HCFA. Interim final rule with comment period.
    Journal: Fed Regist; 1982 Sep 28; 47(188):42676-82. PubMed ID: 10299041.
    Abstract:
    This interim final rule changes the way Medicare determines the costs of inpatient routine services (bed and board), including costs of private rooms, furnished in hospitals and skilled nursing facilities (SNFs). This change is needed to prevent Medicare from sharing in the added costs of private rooms unless those rooms are used by Medicare beneficiaries and are medically necessary. This regulation implements section 111 of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (Pub. L. 97-248).
