    ACTION: Proposed rule.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUMMARY: This proposed rule would establish a methodology to update the 
    wage index used to adjust Medicare payment rates for hospice care. The 
    wage index is used to reflect local differences in wage levels. A new 
    wage index is needed because the index currently applied is based on 
    1981 wage and employment data and has not been updated since 1983. The 
    methodology is based on the recommendations of a negotiated rulemaking 
    advisory committee comprised of persons who represent interests 
    affected by the hospice rules.

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    I. Background
    
    A. Statute and Regulations
    
        Hospice care is an approach to treatment that recognizes that the 
    impending death of an individual warrants a change in focus from 
    curative care to palliative care (relief of pain and other 
    uncomfortable symptoms). The goal of hospice care is to help terminally 
    ill individuals continue life with minimal disruption to normal 
    activities while remaining primarily in the home environment. A hospice 
    uses an interdisciplinary approach to deliver medical, social, 
    psychological, emotional, and spiritual services through the use of a 
    broad spectrum of professional and other caregivers, with the goal of 
    making the individual as physically and emotionally comfortable as 
    possible. Counseling and respite services are available to the family 
    of the hospice patient. Hospice programs consider both the patient and 
    the family as a unit of care.
        Section 122 of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 
    (TEFRA) (Public Law 97-248) added section 1861(dd) to the Social 
    Security Act (the Act) to provide coverage for hospice care for 
    terminally ill Medicare beneficiaries who elect to receive care from a 
    participating hospice. The statutory authority for payment to hospices 
    participating in the Medicare program is contained in section 1814(i) 
    of the Act.
        On December 16, 1983, we published a final rule in the Federal 
    Register (48 FR 56008) that, effective for hospice services furnished 
    on or after November 1, 1983, established eligibility requirements and 
    payment standards and procedures, defined covered services, and 
    delineated the conditions a hospice must meet to be approved for 
    participation in the Medicare program.
        Regulations at 42 CFR part 418, subpart G, Payment for Hospice 
    Care, provide for payment to hospices based on one of four 
    prospectively determined rates for each day in which a qualified 
    Medicare beneficiary is under the care of a hospice. The four rate 
    categories are routine home care, continuous home care, inpatient 
    respite care, and general inpatient care. Payment rates are established 
    for each category.
        The final rule of December 16, 1983 (48 FR 56034) included the 
    following provisions with regard to payment:
         Provision for adjustment to the payment rates to reflect 
    differences in area wage levels. Since hospice care is labor-intensive, 
    adjustment was necessary to permit payment of higher
    
    [[Page 46580]]
    
    rates in areas with relatively high wage levels, and proportionately 
    lower rates in areas with wage levels below the national average.
         Provision that the labor market areas be based on the 
    definitions of Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) issued by the 
    Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
         Provision that the wage index used to adjust the hospice 
    payment rates was to be the wage index published in the Federal 
    Register on September 1, 1983 (48 FR 39871) for purposes of determining 
    Medicare inpatient hospital prospective payment rates. This hospital 
    wage index, which is still in use for hospices, was based on calendar 
    year 1981 hospital wage and employment data obtained from the Bureau of 
    Labor Statistics' (BLS) ES 202 Employment, Wages and Contributions file 
    for hospital workers.
         Provision that, in applying the hospital wage index to the 
    hospice rates, we use an index value of 0.8 if the hospital wage index 
    value were lower than 0.8. The use of a wage index ``floor'' reflected 
    our belief that an index value below 0.8 would make payment levels very 
    low. We believed this would unduly jeopardize the availability of the 
    benefit in rural areas by discouraging participation in the Medicare 
    hospice program by hospices that are located in these areas, and by 
    inhibiting the ability of these rural hospices to attract and retain 
    sufficient skilled staff.
        The hospice wage index has not been updated since 1983. Over the 
    ensuing years, we instituted many changes in the hospital wage index in 
    order to ensure its continuing accuracy for hospitals. Since these 
    changes have not been applied to hospices, there are widening 
    differences between the existing hospice wage index and actual wage 
    levels. The existing hospice wage index is based on 1981 BLS hospital 
    data; however, BLS data are no longer used in determining the hospital 
    wage index. Based on our concern that the BLS data did not accurately 
    reflect hospital wages, we conducted a survey of hospital wage and wage 
    related costs and, in fiscal year 1986, implemented a hospital wage 
    index based solely on HCFA survey data. We repeated the survey in 1988 
    and implemented a revised hospital wage index during fiscal year 1991.
        Additionally, in fiscal year 1991, we began adjusting the hospital 
    wage index to take into account the geographic reclassification of 
    hospitals in accordance with sections 1886(d)(8)(B) and 1886(d)(10) of 
    the Act. Beginning in fiscal year 1994, in accordance with section 
    1886(d)(3)(E) of the Act, we have updated the hospital wage index 
    annually, based on a survey of wages and wage-related costs of short-
    term, acute care hospitals.
        The most recent hospital wage index was published in the Federal 
    Register on September 1, 1995 (60 FR 45778). It is based on the data 
    collected from the Medicare cost reports submitted by hospitals for 
    cost reporting periods beginning in fiscal year 1992.
    
    B. The Negotiated Rulemaking Advisory Committee
    
        The Negotiated Rulemaking Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-648), which 
    encourages agencies to use negotiated rulemaking to enhance the 
    informal rulemaking process, established a framework for the conduct of 
    negotiated rulemaking. Negotiated rulemaking is a process by which a 
    proposed rule is developed by a committee of representatives of 
    interests that may be significantly affected by the rule, including a 
    government representative. The goal of the process is to reach 
    consensus on the text or content of the proposed rule, which then is 
    published for public comment. The committee is assisted by a neutral 
    facilitator (mediator). Consensus means unanimous concurrence of all 
    committee members.
        We chose to use the negotiated rulemaking process to update the 
    hospice wage index for the following reasons:
         There was a general recognition by the hospice industry 
    that the existing wage index is not satisfactory and that further 
    inaction will likely widen the gap between the existing index and a 
    revised index.
         Industry and consumer representatives exhibited a high 
    degree of willingness to participate.
         There were opportunities for compromises among the various 
    interests, as well as an opportunity for creative problemsolving that 
    could lead to an acceptable result.
         Even if consensus were not achieved, acceptability of the 
    resulting wage index would be enhanced by the type of information-
    sharing that would occur in the context of negotiation.
        On October 14, 1994, we published in the Federal Register a notice 
    of intent to establish an advisory committee under the Federal Advisory 
    Committee Act to negotiate the hospice wage index (59 FR 52129). The 
    purpose of this committee was to provide advice and make 
    recommendations to the Secretary with respect to the text or content of 
    a proposed rule on the wage index used to adjust payment rates for 
    hospices under the Medicare program to reflect local differences in 
    area wage levels. The notice solicited public comment on the 
    appropriateness of the negotiated rulemaking process for updating the 
    hospice wage index and on whether we identified all of the interests 
    that would be affected. As a result, we received eight public comments. 
    The commenters supported our decision to establish a negotiating 
    committee and utilize the negotiated rulemaking process for this 
    purpose.
        We published a notice in the Federal Register on December 29, 1994 
    to announce establishment of the Negotiated Rulemaking Advisory 
    Committee on the Medicare Hospice Wage Index (59 FR 67264). The 
    Committee represented interests that would be significantly affected by 
    the adoption of a new wage index and included an appropriate mix of 
    interests and backgrounds. Committee members included representatives 
    of national hospice associations; rural, urban, large, and small 
    hospices; multi-site hospices; and consumer groups. In addition, during 
    the process, when the Committee identified large groups of hospices 
    likely to suffer a significant negative impact as a result of the 
    revised wage index, attempts were made to contact representatives of 
    those groups for their input, as well as to provide them an opportunity 
    to participate in the meetings and discussions.
    
    C. Consensus Agreement
    
        The Committee met five times from November 1994 to April 1995. Its 
    deliberations focused on the following issues: the data source for the 
    wage index; the budget neutrality adjustment; continued application of 
    a wage index floor; the transition period; future updates; and the 
    effective date of a revised index. The Committee reached consensus on a 
    hospice wage index that results from the methodology described below. 
    The Committee Statement is included as an addendum at the end of this 
    proposed rule.
        In the Agreement with which all Committee members concurred, HCFA 
    agreed that it would, to the maximum extent possible and consistent 
    with applicable legal obligations, draft a proposed rule consistent 
    with the Committee Statement, and publish it as a Notice of Proposed 
    Rulemaking. Accordingly, under the proposed rule, the revised hospice 
    wage index will be calculated in a manner fully consistent with the 
    negotiated rulemaking process and the Committee Statement. The one 
    exception will be the wage index value for the Virgin Islands, as noted 
    in section III.D of this preamble.
    
    [[Page 46581]]
    
    1. Data to be Used
        A primary concern of the Committee was the data to be used to 
    construct a revised hospice wage index. Options considered by the 
    Committee included continued use of BLS data, updated hospital wage 
    data, hospice-specific data, and data used for the physician payment 
    system. The Committee considered the following criteria in evaluating 
    the available data sources:
         Fundamental equity of the wage index.
         Data that reflected actual work performed by hospice 
    personnel.
         Reliability of data.
         Variability of data (that is, fewer shifts in wage index 
    values from year to year).
         Uniform treatment across MSAs.
         Compatibility with wage indices used by HCFA for other 
    Medicare providers.
         Accuracy of data (that is, ability to eliminate data 
    errors).
         Preserving access to hospice care.
         Minimizing losses in payment to a high percentage of 
    hospices, or minimizing the total amount hospices would lose on an 
    individual basis.
         Limitation of data to Medicare-certified agencies.
         Cost of data collection.
         Lack of bias against rural areas or urban areas.
         Availability of the data for timely implementation.
        The Committee heard presentations about the different types of data 
    available and determined that, since hospice-specific data are 
    unavailable, the hospital wage index data best represents hospices.
        The Committee agreed that the revised wage index would be based for 
    each fiscal year on the most currently available data used by HCFA to 
    construct a wage index for hospitals under the prospective payment 
    system, before adjustments are made to take into account the geographic 
    reclassification of hospitals in accordance with sections 1886(d)(8)(B) 
    and (d)(10) of the Act. Among the reasons the Committee chose to 
    recommend use of unadjusted hospital wage data was to avoid further 
    reductions in certain rural statewide wage index values that result 
    from reclassification. (Reductions occur because, when rural hospitals 
    are reclassified to urban areas, the wage data from the affected 
    hospitals are not included in determining the statewide rural rate.)
        Each hospice's labor market area would be established by the MSA 
    definitions issued by the OMB on December 28, 1992, based on the 1990 
    census, and updated periodically by OMB. Any changes to the MSA 
    definitions would be effective annually and announced in the final rule 
    updating the hospice wage index.
    2. Budget Neutrality
        Options considered by the Committee regarding budget neutrality 
    included the following: (1) whether to apply a budget neutrality 
    adjustment; (2) whether the adjustment would be applied equally to all 
    wage index values; and (3) whether the budget neutrality adjustment 
    would be applied after the transition period (see section I.C.4, of 
    this preamble).
        The Committee determined that, each year in updating the wage 
    index, aggregate Medicare payments to hospices would remain the same, 
    using the revised wage index as if the 1983 wage index had not been 
    updated. Thus, although payments to individual hospice programs may 
    change each year, overall Medicare payments to hospices would not be 
    affected by updating the wage index, that is, budget neutrality will be 
    maintained during and after the transition period.
        In order to ensure budget neutrality, an adjustment would be made 
    to the payments that would otherwise be made to individual hospices for 
    the period beginning on the effective date of the final rule and ending 
    September 30, 1997. We would determine the amount of the budget 
    neutrality adjustment by first computing the amount of hospice payments 
    that would have resulted from the hospice payment methodology using the 
    1983 hospice wage index. To perform this computation for this proposed 
    rule, we obtained the 1995 December update of the national claims 
    history file of all bills submitted during fiscal year 1995. We deleted 
    all bills from hospices that have since closed. Then, we computed 
    program expenditures using updated hospital wage data (that is, 1993 
    hospital wage data for fiscal year 1997). To achieve budget neutrality, 
    we have determined that it would be necessary to apply a budget 
    neutrality adjustment factor of 1.020702 to the wage portion of the 
    payment rate. That is, an increase of 2 percent to the wage portion of 
    the payment rate results in the same program expenditures as would have 
    been realized had we continued to apply the 1983 hospice wage index. 
    For fiscal year 1998 and subsequent years, a budget neutrality 
    adjustment would be made using the most currently available HCFA 
    hospital data. A budget neutrality adjustment factor would be 
    calculated each year in order to maintain aggregate payments that would 
    have been made under the 1983 wage index.
    3. Wage Index Floor
        The Committee discussed retention of the wage index floor in terms 
    of its original intended purpose--allowing hospices in rural areas to 
    recruit and retain staff. In addition, the Committee discussed 
    transportation issues experienced by hospice programs in both rural and 
    urban areas. Information was provided to the Committee illustrating 
    those wage index areas that are protected by the current wage index 
    floor. The Committee determined that in order to maintain the viability 
    of the hospice programs in rural and other low wage index areas, it was 
    appropriate to continue to assist those areas with wage index values 
    below 0.8 by providing an adjustment to the wage component of the rate. 
    In reaching consensus on the adjustment factor, the Committee 
    considered alternatives such as retention of the 0.8 wage index floor, 
    the impact of other floor values on the budget neutrality adjustment, 
    and use of a two-tiered floor. The Committee reached consensus on a 15-
    percent increase adjustment for those wage areas below 0.8, up to a 
    maximum of 0.8, to assist hospices in areas with low wage index values 
    to continue to provide access to hospice care.
        However, the Committee also agreed that hospices should not receive 
    the benefit of both the budget neutrality adjustment and a wage index 
    floor adjustment. Thus, for those wage areas below 0.8, the revised 
    wage index for the area will be the greater of the following--
         The pre-reclassification hospital wage index value times a 
    budget neutrality adjustment factor; or
         The pre-reclassification hospital wage index value 
    multiplied by 1.15, but subject to a maximum wage index value of 0.8.
    4. Transition Period
        The revised wage index would not be fully implemented until October 
    1, 1998. For the transition period beginning on the effective date of 
    the final rule and ending September 30, 1997, a blended index value 
    would be calculated by adding two-thirds of the wage index value 
    currently in effect for hospices in an area (the 1983 index) to one-
    third of the pre-reclassification hospital wage index value or the 
    adjusted index value, as applicable. During the second year of the 
    transition period, beginning October 1, 1997, the calculation would be 
    similar, except that the blend would be one-third of the 1983 index 
    value and two-thirds of the pre-reclassification or adjusted wage index 
    value. A fully updated hospice
    
    [[Page 46582]]
    
    wage index, based on the most current hospital wage index, would be 
    implemented beginning October 1, 1998.
        The hospital wage index establishes a wage index value for each MSA 
    and rural statewide values. However, because MSA definitions have 
    changed since 1983, we also need to develop a methodology for setting 
    wage index values for hospices in counties that are no longer in the 
    same MSA as they were in 1983. The Committee agreed that the wage index 
    value for hospices located in these counties for the first year of the 
    transition would be calculated by adding two-thirds of the wage index 
    value for the MSA to which the county was assigned in 1983 to one-third 
    of the updated wage index value for the area to which the county is now 
    assigned. Throughout the transition period, new hospices would be 
    treated the same as existing hospices based in the same county.
    5. Annual Updates
        The revised hospice wage index would be updated annually, beginning 
    on October 1, 1997, so that it is based on the most currently available 
    HCFA hospital data, including any changes to the definitions of MSAs.
        While Committee members supported the use of the most currently 
    available data, the Committee determined that this must be balanced 
    against the interest of allowing hospices sufficient time to adjust to 
    shifts in wage index values. Accordingly, it was agreed by the 
    Committee that HCFA would use the most current hospital cost report 
    data available that would allow us to publish a proposed rule 
    containing wage index values for hospices at least 4 months in advance 
    of the effective date.
    
    II. Current Payment Procedures for Hospice Care
    
    A. Annual Increase in Payment Rates
    
        Section 1814(i)(1)(C)(ii) of the Act provides for an annual 
    increase in the hospice payment rates based on the rate of increase in 
    the hospital market basket index used to adjust payments for inpatient 
    hospital services under the prospective payment system for hospitals. 
    However, section 13504 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 
    (Public Law 103-66) amended section 1814(i) of the Act to decrease the 
    amount of the market basket percentage increase that is applied to 
    hospice rates for fiscal years 1994 through 1997. For hospice payments 
    in fiscal years 1996 and 1997, the market basket increase is reduced by 
    1.5 percent and 0.5 percent, respectively. For fiscal years after 1997, 
    hospices receive the full hospital market basket increase. Following is 
    a brief description of each level of care and the current daily payment 
    rates for the period October 1, 1995 through September 30, 1996.
         Routine Home Care--As specified in Sec. 418.302(d)(3) of 
    the regulations, the payment rate for routine home care is paid to the 
    hospice for each day during which a Medicare beneficiary is under the 
    care of the hospice, and not receiving the care described under 
    continuous home care, inpatient respite care, or general inpatient 
    care, regardless of the volume and intensity of the services provided 
    on any given day. The current routine home care rate is $92.32.
         Continuous Home Care--The hospice is paid the continuous 
    home care rate when, in order to maintain the terminally ill patient at 
    home in a period of crisis, nursing care is required on a continuous 
    basis. Either home health aide or homemaker services or both may also 
    be provided. Medicare regulations at Sec. 418.302(e)(4) specify that 
    the hospice payment on a continuous home care day varies depending on 
    the number of hours of continuous care. The continuous home care rate 
    is divided by 24 to yield an hourly rate. The number of hours of 
    continuous home care furnished during a continuous home care day is 
    multiplied by the hourly rate to calculate the hospice payment amount 
    for that day. The hospice must furnish a minimum of 8 hours of 
    continuous home care on a particular day to qualify for the continuous 
    home care daily rate. The continuous home care rate is intended only 
    for periods of crisis when predominantly skilled continuous care is 
    necessary to achieve palliation or management of the patient's acute 
    medical symptoms and only as necessary to maintain the patient at home. 
    The current continuous home care hourly rate is $22.45 and the daily 
    payment rate is $538.87.
         Inpatient Respite Care--The hospice is paid the inpatient 
    respite care rate for each day the patient is in a Medicare or Medicaid 
    approved inpatient facility receiving respite care. The inpatient 
    respite rate applies specifically to situations where the patient's 
    family members or other persons caring for the patient need a short 
    period of relief. Payment is limited to no more than 5 consecutive 
    days. Subsequent days of respite care are paid at the routine home care 
    rate. The current daily payment rate for inpatient respite care is 
    $95.50.
         General Inpatient Care--The hospice is paid the general 
    inpatient care rate for each day the patient is in a Medicare or 
    Medicaid approved inpatient setting to receive services that are 
    reasonable and necessary for the palliation or management of acute and 
    severe clinical problems related to the terminal condition that cannot 
    be managed in other settings. The current daily payment rate for 
    general inpatient care is $410.72.
    
    B. Adjustment for Wage Variations
    
        In adjusting the payment rates, we separate the national payment 
    rates into components that reflect the estimated proportion of the rate 
    that is attributable to wage and nonwage costs. We then multiply the 
    wage component of each rate by the wage index value applicable to the 
    area in which the hospice is located (adjusted wage component). The 
    rate paid to a hospice is the sum of the non-wage component and the 
    adjusted wage component.
        The following table indicates the current hospice payment rates and 
    the amount (in dollars) of each rate subject to adjustment by the wage 
    index:

    III. Proposed Hospice Wage Index
    
        Existing hospice regulations at Sec. 418.306(c) provide that the 
    payment rates established by HCFA are adjusted by the intermediary to 
    reflect local differences in wages. We are proposing to amend 
    Sec. 418.306(c) to add that:
         The hospice wage index is updated annually based on the 
    most current available hospital wage data, and
         This data will include any changes to the definitions of 
    Metropolitan Statistical Areas.
        As noted above, the revised hospice wage index is based on the 
    recommendations of a Negotiated Rulemaking Advisory Committee. In the 
    Agreement concurred in by all Committee members, HCFA agreed that it 
    would, to the maximum extent possible consistent with the applicable 
    legal obligations, draft a proposed rule consistent with the Committee 
    Statement and publish it as a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. We intend 
    to interpret and apply the proposed rule, if adopted in final form, in 
    a manner fully consistent with the Committee Statement.
        If the final rule were adopted without change from the proposed 
    rule, the only difference between the final rule and the Committee 
    Statement would be the calculation of the wage index value for the 
    Virgin Islands, as noted in section III.D below. The wage index value 
    for the Virgin Islands was not addressed by the Committee, since at the 
    time of its meetings there were no certified hospices located in the 
    Virgin Islands.
    
    A. Computation of the Hospice Wage Index
    
        The hospice wage index would be derived from the following 1993 
    hospital cost report data:
         Total short-term, acute care hospital salaries and hours.
         Home office costs and hours.
         Fringe benefits associated with hospital and home office 
    salaries.
         Direct patient care related contract labor cost and hours.
         The exclusion of salaries and hours for nonhospital type 
    services such as skilled nursing facility services, home health 
    services, or other subprovider components that are not subject to the 
    prospective payment system.
        The raw hospital wage data would undergo a series of reviews and 
    edits to verify the wage data from the Medicare cost report. A detailed 
    description of this process is contained in the September 1, 1995 (60 
    FR 45778) hospital prospective payment final rule. A brief description 
    of the process follows:
        The wage data are reported electronically to HCFA through the 
    Hospital Cost Report Information System (HCRIS). The HCRIS system 
    includes several screens to identify unusual data. Then, we initiate an 
    intensive review of the wage data by the fiscal intermediaries to 
    ensure quality and accuracy. Finally, we subject the revised cost 
    report data to several edit checks. Edit failures involve data that 
    appear unusual and need to be verified by the intermediary.
        The wage file that will be used to construct the fiscal year 1997 
    proposed hospital wage index will include data that we obtained in late 
    January 1996 from the HCRIS database and subsequent changes that we 
    received from intermediaries through March 1996. The intermediaries 
    will be instructed to complete verification of questionable data 
    elements and to transmit any changes to the wage data, through HCRIS, 
    no later than mid-June 1996. We expect that all outstanding data 
    elements will be resolved by then, so that we will be able to reflect 
    the corrected data in the final hospital wage index.
        In addition, in March 1996, we afforded hospitals an opportunity to 
    evaluate the raw hospital wage data that would be used to construct the 
    proposed fiscal year 1997 hospital wage index. Also, we will publish 
    information in the fiscal year 1997 hospital prospective payment system 
    proposed rule to enable hospitals to identify inconsistencies. To be 
    reflected in the final hospital wage index, any wage data corrections 
    must be reviewed by the intermediary and transmitted to HCFA through 
    HCRIS by mid-June 1996.
        We have created the process described above to resolve all 
    substantive wage data correction disputes before we finalize the raw 
    wage data for the fiscal year 1997 hospital wage index.
        As noted above, we are proposing to base the fiscal year 1997 
    hospice wage index on hospital wage data reported on the fiscal year 
    1993 cost report prior to reclassification; that is, the hospital wage 
    index will not be adjusted to take into account the geographic 
    reclassification of hospitals in accordance with sections 1886(d)(8)(B) 
    and 1886(d)(10) of the Act. The method used to compute the hospital 
    wage index is as follows:
        Step 1--We gather data from each of the non-Federal short-term, 
    acute care hospitals for which data were reported on the Worksheet S-3, 
    Part II of the Medicare cost report for the hospital's cost reporting 
    periods beginning on or after October 1, 1992, and before October 1, 
    1993.
        Step 2--For each hospital, we subtract the excluded salaries (that 
    is, direct salaries attributable to skilled nursing facility services, 
    home health services, and other subprovider components not subject to 
    the prospective payment system) from gross hospital salaries to 
    determine net hospital salaries. To the net hospital salaries, we add 
    hospital contract labor costs, hospital fringe benefits, and any home 
    office salaries and fringe benefits reported by the hospital to 
    determine total salaries plus fringe benefits.
        Step 3--For each hospital, we inflate or deflate, as appropriate, 
    the total salaries plus fringe benefits resulting from Step 2 to a 
    common period to determine total adjusted salaries. A complete 
    description of this step appeared in the September 1995 final 
    Prospective Payment System regulation for fiscal year 1996 (60 FR 
    45792).
        Step 4--For each hospital, we subtract the reported excluded hours 
    from the gross hospital hours to determine net hospital hours. We 
    increase the net hours by the addition of any reported contract labor 
    hours and home office hours to determine total hours.
        Step 5--As part of our editing process, we delete data for 
    hospitals for which we lacked sufficient documentation to verify data 
    that failed edits because the hospitals are no longer participating in 
    the Medicare program or are in bankruptcy status. We retained the data 
    for other hospitals that are no longer participating in the Medicare 
    program because these hospitals contributed to the relative wage levels 
    in their labor market areas during their fiscal year 1993 cost 
    reporting period.
        Step 6--Within each urban or rural labor market area, we add the 
    total adjusted salaries plus fringe benefits obtained in Step 3 for all 
    hospitals in that area to determine the total adjusted salaries plus 
    fringe benefits for the labor market area.
        Step 7--We divide the total adjusted salaries plus fringe benefits 
    obtained in Step 6 by the sum of the total hours (from Step 4) for all 
    hospitals in each labor market area to determine an average hourly wage 
    for the area.
        Step 8--We add the total adjusted salaries plus fringe benefits 
    obtained in Step 3 for all hospitals in the nation and then divide the 
    sum by the national sum of total hours from Step 4 to arrive at a 
    national average hourly wage.
        Step 9--For each urban or rural labor market area, we calculate the 
    hospital wage index value by dividing the area average hourly wage 
    obtained in Step 7
    
    [[Page 46584]]
    
    by the national average hourly wage computed in Step 8.
    
    B. Budget Neutrality Adjustment and Application of Wage Index Floor for 
    the Proposed Hospice Index
    
        All hospice wage index values below 0.8 would receive the greater 
    of the following:
         A 15 percent increase, subject to a maximum wage index 
    value of 0.8; or
         An adjustment, by multiplying the hospice wage index value 
    for a given area by the budget neutrality adjustment factor. In this 
    way, wage areas with values below 0.8 would not receive both the wage 
    index floor adjustment and the budget neutrality adjustment. All 
    hospice wage index values of 0.8 or greater would receive a budget 
    neutrality adjustment, which would be calculated by multiplying the 
    hospice wage index value for a given area by the budget neutrality 
    factor.
        To determine a budget neutrality adjustment factor, we would 
    establish the payments that would be made under the 1983 wage index. We 
    would do this by calculating the labor-related payments for each of the 
    four types of hospice services using patient bills for the most recent 
    completed fiscal year (that is, fiscal year 1995 bills would be used to 
    calculate the fiscal year 1997 index). That dollar amount would be the 
    target for the budget neutrality calculation. Then payments would be 
    calculated separately for the labor-related portion of the rates using 
    the wage index proposed in this rule. The budget neutrality factor 
    would be calculated as the multiplier by which labor-related payments 
    using the proposed wage index must be adjusted to equal labor-related 
    payments using the 1983 wage index. The calculation would be made 
    taking into account the respective adjustments applicable to wage index 
    values below, at, or above the 0.8 threshold described above. The 
    payments would be for the total of labor-related payments for each of 
    the four types of hospice services. The budget neutrality factor would 
    then be applied to the wage index. To confirm the accuracy of the 
    calculation, total payments would then be calculated by using the new 
    budget neutrality adjusted wage index and would be compared to payments 
    using the 1983 wage index.
        The budget neutrality factor would be calculated and applied 
    annually, both during and after the transition period.
    
    C. Transition and Annual Updates
    
        We are proposing a 3-year transition period with annual updates as 
    noted in sections I.C.4 and I.C.5 and in the Committee Statement.
    
    D. Wage Index Value for the Virgin Islands
    
        At the time of negotiations, there were no certified hospices 
    located in the Virgin Islands. However, since that time, a hospice 
    program has been certified to provide services under Medicare. Since 
    the Virgin Islands is not an area designated under the prospective 
    payment system for hospitals, there is no hospital wage index value for 
    the Virgin Islands. Therefore, though this was not an issue discussed 
    by the Committee, we are proposing that the methodology to calculate a 
    wage index value for the Virgin Islands would be to gather information 
    from the hospital cost report and compare hourly wages of the hospital 
    located in the Virgin Islands to the national average. This would 
    generate a wage index value of 0.6594.
    
    IV. Regulatory Impact Statement
    
        Consistent with the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 
    through 612), we prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis unless we 
    certify that a proposed rule would not have a significant economic 
    impact on a substantial number of small entities. For purposes of the 
    RFA, all hospices are considered to be small entities. Individuals and 
    States are not included in the definition of a small entity.
        In addition, section 1102(b) of the Act requires us to prepare a 
    regulatory impact analysis if a proposed rule may have a significant 
    impact on the operations of a substantial number of small rural 
    hospitals. Such an analysis must conform to the provisions of section 
    603 of the RFA. For purposes of section 1102(b) of the Act, we define a 
    small rural hospital as a hospital that is located outside of a 
    Metropolitan Statistical Area and has fewer than 50 beds.
        This impact analysis compares hospice payments under the current 
    wage index (column 3 of the table) to the first transition year blend 
    (column 4). The wage index blend for the first transition year of the 3 
    year transition is two-thirds of the current wage index added to one-
    third of the new wage index. The data used in developing the 
    quantitative analysis for this proposed rule were obtained from the 
    December 1995 update of the national claims history file of all bills 
    submitted during fiscal year 1995. We deleted bills from hospices that 
    have since closed.
        The table demonstrates the results of our analysis. The table 
    categorizes hospices by various geographic and provider 
    characteristics. The top row of the table demonstrates the neutral 
    overall payment impact on 1,755 hospices included in the analysis. The 
    next two rows of the table categorize hospices according to their 
    geographic location (urban and rural). There are 1,143 hospices located 
    in urban areas included in our analysis and 612 hospices located in 
    rural areas. The next two groupings in the table indicate the number of 
    hospices by census region, also broken down by urban and rural 
    hospices. The next grouping shows the impact on hospices based on the 
    size of the hospice's program. We determined that the majority of 
    hospice payments are made at the routine home care rate: therefore, we 
    based the size of each individual hospice's program on the number of 
    routine home care days provided in 1995. The next grouping shows the 
    impact on hospices by type of ownership. The final grouping shows the 
    impact on hospices defined by whether they are provider-based or 
    freestanding.
        In column 2 of the table we indicate the number of routine home 
    care days that were included in our analysis, although the analysis was 
    performed on all types of hospice care. Columns 3 and 4 show the 
    payments that would have been made to hospices under the 1983 wage 
    index and payments that would be made under the 1997 wage index. As the 
    first row in column 4 indicates, the wage index is budget neutral. The 
    final column shows the percent change in hospice payments based on the 
    category of the hospice.
        The results of our analysis show that the greatest increases are 
    for urban hospices in the New England and Pacific regions, 4.4 percent 
    and 1.7 percent respectively. The greatest decreases, besides Puerto 
    Rico, are the urban East South Central and West South Central regions 
    with 1.6 percent and 1.4 percent respectively. The most dramatic shift 
    occurs in Puerto Rico, where urban payments decrease by 7.3 percent and 
    rural payments decrease by 8.5 percent. Since the wage index values for 
    the Puerto Rico region are more than 15 percent below 0.8, this region 
    is most affected by the revision to the wage index floor.
        Small hospice programs show small decreases while larger programs 
    show slight increases. Proprietary hospices show slight decreases in 
    payment due to the wage index change while voluntary programs gain 
    slightly. Finally, freestanding hospices show small decreases while 
    provider-based hospice programs show small increases.

        We have concluded that this regulation will have an impact on small 
    hospices. However, the provisions of this regulation were determined by 
    consensus through a negotiated rulemaking committee. Based on all of 
    the options considered, the committee determined that the provisions 
    proposed in this regulation were favorable for the hospice community as 
    a whole, as well as for the beneficiaries that they serve.
        We have also determined, and the Secretary certifies, that this 
    proposed rule would not result in a significant economic impact on a 
    substantial number of small entities and would not have a significant 
    impact on the operations of a substantial number of small rural 
    hospitals. For these reasons, we are not preparing analyses for the RFA 
    or section 1102(b) of the Act.
        In accordance with the provisions of Executive Order 12866, this 
    regulation was reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget.

    able to acknowledge or respond to them individually. We will consider 
    all comments we receive by the date and time specified in the DATES

    Negotiating Committee on the Medicare Hospice Wage Index
    
    Committee Statement
    
    April 13, 1995
        The Negotiating Committee on Medicare Hospice Wage Index has 
    concurred in the following recommendations, considered as a whole, 
    concerning the wage index used to adjust Medicare payment rates for 
    hospice services to reflect geographic differences in wages:
    A. Data to be Used
        The wage index for hospices will be based on the wage index used by 
    the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) for hospitals under the 
    Medicare Prospective Payment System, prior to reclassification. This 
    means that the hospital wage index will not be adjusted to take into 
    account the geographic reclassification of hospitals in accordance with 
    sections 1886(d)(8)(B) and 1886(d)(10) of the Social Security Act.
        The hospital wage index prior to reclassification will be referred 
    to in this statement as the Raw Index and will be adjusted as provided 
    below to calculate what will be referred to as the Revised Wage Index.
        Special provisions governing a transition period are described in 
    paragraph D below.
    B. Budget Neutrality
        HCFA will determine a Budget Neutrality Factor that will be applied 
    to achieve budget neutrality during and after the transition period. 
    Budget neutrality means that, in a given year, estimated aggregate 
    payments for Medicare hospice services using the Revised Wage Index 
    will equal estimated payments that would have been made for the same 
    services if the wage index adopted for hospices in 1983 (1983 Index) 
    had remained in effect. HCFA will estimate aggregate payments for 
    Medicare hospice services using the best available utilization data.
    C. Adjustments
        Each Raw Index value will be adjusted in one of two ways to 
    determine the Revised Wage Index value applicable to each area.
        (1) If the Raw Index value for any area is 0.8 or greater, the 
    Revised Wage Index will be calculated by multiplying the Raw Index 
    value for that area by the Budget Neutrality Factor.
        (2) If the Raw Index value for any area is less than 0.8, the 
    Revised Wage Index will be the greater of either:
        (a) The Raw Index value for that area multiplied by the Budget 
    Neutrality Factor; or
        (b) The Raw Index value for that area multiplied by 1.15 (in 
    effect, a 15-percent increase), but subject to a maximum index value of 
    0.8.
    D. Transition Period
        The Revised Wage Index will be implemented over a 3-year transition 
    period beginning on or about October 1, 1996. For the first year of the 
    transition period, a blended index will be calculated by adding two-
    thirds of each 1983 Index value for an area to one-third of the Revised 
    Wage Index value for that area. During the second year of the 
    transition period, the calculation will be similar, except that the 
    blend will be one-third of the 1983 Index values and two-thirds of the 
    Revised Wage Index values. During the third year the Revised Wage Index 
    will be fully implemented.
        Throughout the transition period, new hospices will be treated the 
    same as existing hospices based in the same county.
    E. Annual Updates
        The Revised Wage Index will be updated annually, so that it is 
    based on the most current available data used by HCFA to construct the 
    hospital wage index, as well as on changes by the Office of Management 
    and Budget to Metropolitan Statistical Areas as adopted by HCFA in 
    calculating the hospital wage index.
        HCFA will use the most current hospital cost report data available 
    that allows HCFA to publish a proposed rule containing wage index 
    values at least 4 months in advance of the effective date of each 
    annual update to the Revised Wage Index.
    F. Effective Date
        The effective date of a final rule revising the wage index as 
    stated above should be October 1, 1996.
    G. Statement to Accompany Proposed and Final Hospice Wage Index Notice
        The proposed rule is based upon a Committee Statement developed by 
    a Negotiating Committee on the Medicare hospice wage index which was 
    convened under the Negotiated Rulemaking Act. A new hospice wage index 
    is needed because the existing hospice wage index is based on a 1983 
    wage index using 1981 Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data which is 
    inaccurate and outdated.
        The Committee reached consensus; however, this means only that all 
    Committee members could ``live with'' the agreement, considered as a 
    whole, even if elements of that agreement were not the preferred choice 
    of individual Committee members. The Committee Statement reflects those 
    issues upon which the Committee ultimately concurred, but does not 
    address many issues that were considered by the Committee.
        The Committee considered the appropriate data to be used to 
    construct a wage index, the appropriateness of retaining a 0.8 floor, 
    budget neutrality, and how to structure a transition to timely update 
    the index yet ensure access to hospice care. In particular, the 
    Committee considered the problems faced by hospices that would receive 
    significant decreases under the new wage indices, rural hospices, 
    hospices with low wage indices, and hospices that may have 
    disproportionately high non-wage costs.
        The Committee received extensive information from experts who 
    appeared before the Committee and from the hospice community, and 
    sought public input. While considerable data were reviewed, the 
    Committee acknowledges
    
    [[Page 46587]]
    
    that hospice data collection is maturing and encourages its continued 
    development. In addition, while other issues were identified, the scope 
    of the Committee's negotiations was limited by the Notice of Intent to 
    Negotiate.
        Given these constraints, and taking into account the differing and 
    conflicting interests that would be significantly affected, the 
    Committee sought to develop a wage index that would be as accurate, 
    reliable, and equitable as possible, but would not threaten access to 
    hospice care.
        The Committee recognizes that hospice care is still not universally 
    available. The Committee further recognizes that there may be 
    geographic or other circumstances that inhibit the provision of hospice 
    care. The Committee strongly requests that HCFA consider options to 
    address these access problems.
        Reaching consensus was a long and deliberative process. The 
    Committee concurred that the wage index it recommends will be better 
    both for the hospice community as a whole, and for the Medicare 
    beneficiaries it serves, than a wage index developed by the traditional 
    rulemaking process.
