Text of Recommendation | We recommend that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services consider developing a mechanism for SNFs and hospitals to indicate on the claim when a Part A inpatient leaves the facility and returns on the same day to help ensure that Medicare does not pay twice for any of the practice expenses incurred for physician services furnished while enrollees were Part A SNF or hospital inpatients. |
