Trump Administration Finalizes Policies to
Give Medicare Beneficiaries More Choices around Surgery
Today, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is
finalizing policy changes that will give Medicare patients and their doctors
greater choices to get care at a lower cost in an outpatient setting. The
Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) and Ambulatory Surgical Center
(ASC) final rules will increase value for Medicare beneficiaries and reflect
the agency’s efforts to transform the healthcare delivery system through
competition and innovation. These changes implement the Trump
Administration’s Executive Order on Protecting and Improving Medicare for Our
Nation’s Seniors, and will take effect on January 1, 2021. |
