Year 1998
AGENCY: Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA), HHS.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This proposed rule discusses several policy changes affecting
Medicare Part B payment. The changes relate to physician services,
including resource-based practice expense relative value units and
geographic practice cost index changes, clinical psychologist services,
supervision of diagnostic tests, the methodology used to develop
reasonable compensation equivalent limits, payment to participating and
nonparticipating suppliers, global surgical services, caloric
vestibular testing, clinical consultations, and payments based on
actual charges. Under the law, we are required to develop a resource-
based system for determining practice expense relative value units
effective January 1, 1998. In addition, since we established the
physician fee schedule on January 1, 1992, our experience indicates
that some of our Part B payment policies need to be reconsidered. This
proposed rule is intended to correct inequities in physician payment
and solicits public comments on specific proposed policy changes.

I. Background
A. Legislative History
Since January 1, 1992, Medicare has paid for physician services
under section 1848 of the Social Security Act (the Act), ``Payment for
Physicians' Services.'' This section contains three major elements: (1)
A fee schedule for the payment of physician services; (2) a Medicare
volume performance standard for the rates of increase in Medicare
expenditures for physician services; and (3) limits on the amounts that
nonparticipating physicians can charge beneficiaries. The Act requires
that payments under the fee schedule be based on national uniform
relative value units (RVUs) based on the resources used in furnishing a
service. Section 1848(c) of the Act requires that national RVUs be
established for physician work, practice expense, and malpractice
expense.
Section 1848(c)(2)(B)(ii)(II) of the Act provides that adjustments
in RVUs because of changes resulting from a review of those RVUs may
not cause total physician fee schedule payments to differ by more than
$20 million from what they would have been had the adjustments not been
made. If this tolerance is exceeded, we must make adjustments to the
conversion factors (CFs) to preserve budget neutrality.
B. Published Changes to the Fee Schedule
We published a final rule on November 25, 1991 (56 FR 59502) to
implement section 1848 of the Act by establishing a fee schedule for
physician services furnished on or after January 1, 1992. In the
November 1991 final rule (56 FR 59511), we stated our intention to
update RVUs for new and revised codes in the American Medical
Association's (AMA's) Physicians' Current Procedural Terminology (CPT)
through an ``interim RVU'' process every year. The updates to the RVUs
and fee schedule policies follow:
November 25, 1992, as a final notice with comment period
on new and revised RVUs only (57 FR 55914).
December 2, 1993, as a final rule with comment period (58
FR 63626) to revise the refinement process used to establish physician
work RVUs and to revise payment policies for specific physician
services and supplies. (We solicited comments on new and revised RVUs
only.)
December 8, 1994, as a final rule with comment period (59
FR 63410) to revise the geographic adjustment factor (GAF) values, fee
schedule payment areas, and payment policies for specific physician
services. The final rule also discussed the process for periodic review
and adjustment of RVUs not less frequently than every 5 years as
required by section 1848(c)(2)(B)(i) of the Act.
December 8, 1995, as a final rule with comment period (60
FR 63124) to revise various policies affecting payment for physician
services
[[Page 33160]]
including Medicare payment for physician services in teaching settings,
the RVUs for certain existing procedure codes, and to establish interim
RVUs for new and revised procedure codes. The rule also included the
final revised 1996 geographic practice cost indices (GPCIs).
November 22, 1996, as a final rule with comment period (61
FR 59490) to revise the policy for payment for diagnostic services,
transportation in connection with furnishing diagnostic tests, changes
in geographic payment areas (localities), and changes in the procedure
status codes for a variety of services.
This proposed rule would affect the regulations set forth at 42 CFR
part 400, which consists of an introduction and definitions; part 405,
which consists of regulations on Federal health insurance for the aged
and disabled; part 410, which consists of regulations pertaining to
supplementary medical insurance benefits (Part B); and part 414, which
consists of regulations on the payment for Part B medical and other
health services.
II. Specific Proposals for Calendar Year 1998
A. Resource-Based Practice Expense Relative Value Units
1. Current Practice Expense Relative Value Unit System
The Act details the types of services that are paid under the
physician fee schedule. These include physician services, services and
supplies incident to a physician's service, certain services of
optometrists, podiatrists, and chiropractors, diagnostic x-ray tests,
diagnostic laboratory tests (excluding clinical laboratory tests), and
x-ray, radium, and radioactive isotope therapy. While some of these
services do not have work RVUs, all of the services have practice
expense and malpractice expense RVUs. (Physician anesthesia services
are paid under the physician fee schedule but under a different payment
methodology. Physician anesthesia services do not have practice expense
and malpractice expense RVUs.) Payments for practice expense RVUs
account for approximately 41 percent of total physician fee schedule
payments.
In most cases, the current practice expense RVUs are calculated
based on a statutory formula. They are derived from the product of
``base allowed charges'' and service-specific practice expense
percentages. The base allowed charge is the national allowed charge for
the service furnished during 1991. The service-specific practice
expense percentage is a weighted average of the practice expense shares
of the specialties performing the service.
For services furnished beginning calendar year 1994 and whose
practice expense RVUs exceed 1994 work RVUs and are performed in the
office setting less than 75 percent of the time, the 1994, 1995, and
1996 practice expense RVUs were reduced by 25 percent of the amount
they exceed the 1994 work RVUs. (Practice expense RVUs are not reduced
to less than 128 percent of 1994 work RVUs.)
2. Criticism of Current Practice Expense Relative Value Unit System
A common criticism of the current practice expense RVU system is
that for many services the RVUs, which are based on charges under the
reasonable charge system, are not based directly on the resources
involved with furnishing the service.
The charge-based nature of the current fee schedule practice
expense formula essentially allows specialties to retain the levels of
practice expense payments that existed before the implementation of the
physician fee schedule on January 1, 1992. Current practice expense
payments favor procedures and tests performed in hospitals rather than
evaluation and management services and other office-based services.
For example, a primary care physician would have to bill CPT code
99213 (level 3 office visit, established patient) approximately 100
times to collect the same amount of practice expense payments as a
cardiac surgeon would for forming one coronary artery bypass graft with
three coronary venous grafts (CPT code 33512), although the practice
expenses the surgeon typically incurs for the cardiac surgery is
primarily related to the pre- and postoperative services furnished in
the office, administrative costs and overhead. The costs for clinical
staff, medical supplies, and medical equipment furnished to hospital
patients are included in the DRG payment made to the hospital as
required by section 1862(a)(14).
In their 1993 annual report to the Congress, the Physician Payment
Review Commission recommended that the Congress revise the practice
expense component of the physician fee schedule so that it is resource-
based. They further recommended that we collect data regarding the
direct cost incurred in delivering each service and that a formula-
based approach be used to allocate indirect costs. This recommendation
was instrumental in the Congress' legislating the resource-based
practice expense component.
3. Resource-Based Practice Expense Legislation
Section 121 of the Social Security Act Amendments of 1994 (Public
Law 103-432), enacted on October 31, 1994, requires us to develop a
methodology for a resource-based system for determining practice
expense RVUs for each physician service. In developing the methodology,
we must consider the staff, equipment, and supplies used in providing
medical and surgical services in various settings. The legislation
requires the new payment methodology to be effective for services
furnished in 1998.
The legislation specifically requires that, in implementing the new
system of practice expense relative value units, we must apply the same
budget-neutrality provisions that we apply to other adjustments under
the physician fee schedule.
4. Development of Resource-Based Practice Expense Relative Value Units
To design a resource-based practice expense system, we established
a framework in which physician practice costs can be divided into
direct or indirect costs. Direct costs are directly attributed to the
provision of a service, such as the cost of a nurse's time (salary),
medical supplies, medical equipment, administrative costs of billing,
record maintenance, and the scheduling of office patients. Direct costs
also include the physician's costs of office staff time for scheduling
the appointment and billing and collection activities associated with a
procedure furnished in a hospital. Indirect costs include the cost of
rent, utilities, office equipment and supplies, and accounting and
legal fees. The allocation of indirect costs to specific products or
services is a classic accounting problem. The indirect costs are
difficult to relate directly to the provision of a specific service
since they are incurred by the practice as a whole.
Establishing a practice expense RVU based on the resources involved
with furnishing a service does not mean we recognize the actual cost to
the physician to produce a service. Rather, it recognizes the
components of the typical resource inputs for a specific service. The
actual cost and RVU are not equivalent under the physician fee
schedule. The proposed values will represent ``relative values'' that
can be translated into a dollar payment amount using the appropriate
CF.
When we implemented the physician fee schedule in January 1, 1992,
we were not required to collect cost data in the aggregate or by
service for
[[Page 33161]]
individual practices. Our claims data do not include cost data by
procedure code.
5. Data Collection Contract
To aid us in collecting the data to implement our methodology for a
resource-based system for determining practice expense RVUs for each
physician service, we awarded a contract to Abt Associates in March
1995. Under the contract, Abt originally intended to use two processes,
the Clinical Practice Expert Panels (CPEPs) and the ``Survey of
Practice Costs,'' to collect data that could be used to generate
practice expense RVUs for each service. Through the use of CPEPs, Abt
provided us with the direct inputs of physician services. Direct inputs
are the quantity and type of nonphysician labor, medical supplies, and
medical equipment associated with a service, such as the minutes of a
registered nurse's time, a pair of sterile gloves, and a surgical mask.
The CPEPs also reported additional items as direct inputs, such as
administrative services, including the amount of time medical
secretaries and billing and insurance personnel spend in activities
related to specific services. Abt priced the direct inputs and
determined the direct costs for each service.
The direct inputs do not include the physician's time. Physician
time and effort are components of work RVUs and are paid under the work
component of the physician fee schedule.
Under the original contract, Abt would have obtained additional
information from the survey of practice costs, which may have been used
to furnish additional options for allocating indirect costs. As
explained later, this survey was subsequently canceled.
6. Clinical Practice Expert Panels
The general approach for establishing a resource-based practice
expense system was to use CPEPs to identify as many direct inputs as
possible for a physician service furnished to a typical patient (across
all age groups) in various settings.
The CPEPs consisted of panels of physicians, practice
administrators, and nonphysicians (such as registered nurses,
psychologists, and physical therapists). Physician specialty societies
and other groups nominated individuals for these positions. Final
selections were made by Abt with our assistance.
In all, there were 15 CPEPs. The panels consisted of over 180
members from more than 61 specialties and subspecialties; approximately
50 percent of the panelists were physicians. Each CPEP consisted of 12
to 15 members.
The CPEPs identified the direct inputs involved in each physician
service in an office setting and an out-of-office setting (such as a
hospital and an ambulatory surgical center). Generally, if a service
was furnished both in an office setting and an out-of-office setting
but less than 10 percent of the time in either of these settings, it
was not profiled in that setting.
We assisted Abt in identifying approximately 6,300 procedure codes
for which resource-based practice expense RVUs were to be developed.
Approximately 850 of these procedure codes have both technical
components (TCs) and professional components (PCs), and we developed
practice expense RVUs for both the TC and PC for each of the 850
procedures.
Abt grouped procedure codes included under the physician fee
schedule into families of codes clinically related and with relatively
comparable direct costs. The classification system for families of
procedure codes is a hybrid of the Ambulatory Patient Groups System
developed by 3M and the Berenson-Eggers-Holahan (Urban Institute)
system. Abt assigned each family of codes to a CPEP based on the
physician specialty that predominantly provided the services. For
example, the panels were categorized as integumentary, male genital and
urinary, orthopedics, obstetrics and gynecology, ophthalmology,
radiology, evaluation and management, general surgery, otolaryngology,
miscellaneous internal medicine, gastroenterology, cardiothoracic and
vascular, cardiology, anesthesia and pathology, and neurosurgery CPEPs.
Our medical staff, Abt's clinical consultants, and other advisors
reviewed this system. Some families of codes were assigned to more than
one CPEP to validate resource inputs across CPEPs. For example, the
evaluation and management family of codes was assigned to every CPEP
except the radiology CPEP and the anesthesia and pathology CPEP.
Abt selected a reference service for each family of codes. (Abt
compiled the initial list of reference services based on
recommendations from numerous specialty societies.) The following four
criteria were established to guide the selection process for the
reference service:
It had to be commonly performed.
It had to have a mid-range level of resource use relative
to other codes in the family.
It had to be a code whose definition or coding application
has not markedly changed in the last several years.
It had to be performed with minimal variation by all
physicians.
In August 1995, physician specialty groups were given an
opportunity to review and comment on a draft document containing the
procedure code family classification system, the reference code (to
serve as a benchmark for creating resource profiles for the remainder
of services within each family of procedure codes), and the CPEP to
which the family was assigned. The comments were considered by Abt and
HCFA in designing the final classification system including the number
of CPEPs.
The final classification system contained 229 unique families of
codes assigned to 15 CPEP panels. Twelve to 29 families of procedure
codes were assigned to each CPEP with most CPEPs reviewing 19 to 23
families of procedure codes. The list of families of procedure codes
assigned to each CPEP is included in Addendum A.
The CPEPs met twice. During the first CPEP session in February
1996, the CPEPs identified the direct inputs for designated reference
services. The CPEPs met again in June 1996 to identify the inputs for
the remaining procedure codes covered under the physician fee schedule.
a. Collection of Information From the Clinical Practice Expert
Panels.
Abt designed the following four uniform worksheets that were used
to collect the inputs identified by the CPEPs:
Worksheet Package G: Services with a global period.
Worksheet Package P: Services without a global period.
Worksheet Package M: Evaluation and Management services.
Worksheet Package Pa: Pathology services.
For labor inputs, either clinical or administrative, the worksheets
identified the function or activity with the occupational category of
the individual furnishing the service. For clinical functions, examples
of occupational categories included a registered nurse, licensed
practical nurse, and certified medical assistant. For administrative
functions, examples of occupational categories included medical
secretaries, insurance or billing clerks, transcriptionists, and
scheduling secretaries. The clinical labor worksheets accumulated labor
inputs by preservice, service, and postservice periods for surgical
procedures with a global period. For surgical procedures without a
global period, evaluation and management services, and pathology
[[Page 33162]]
services, the worksheets accumulated labor inputs by the service
period. The administrative labor worksheets collected labor inputs by
preservice and postservice periods.
During the first round of the CPEPs, Abt collected detailed data by
each of the functions listed within the preservice, service, and
postsurgical visit periods of each service. These were activities
performed by nonphysician clinical and administrative personnel, not
physicians. For example, the evaluation and management services
worksheet listed the following clinical activities in the preservice
period:
Obtain medical history/review patient charts.
Greet patient/provide gowning.
Perform room preparation/prepare medical equipment.
Prepare patient.
Obtain vital signs.
Other.
Similarly, the following administrative activities were listed in
the preservice period:
Obtain referral from referring M.D.
Schedule patient/remind patient of appointment.
Obtain medical records, manage/recall patient database,
assemble/develop patient chart.
Precertify patient/conduct preservice billing.
Verify insurance/review coverage/register patient.
For the intraservice period, the following clinical activities were
listed:
Obtain medical history.
Record notes.
Other.
The following clinical activities were listed in the postservice
period:
Clean room/equipment/shut down equipment.
Provide postservice education.
Complete diagnostic medical forms, x-ray requisitions,
prescriptions.
Review results.
Checkout/provide discharge instructions/complete nursing
forms.
Conduct follow-up phone calls to patient/respond to
patient calls/call-in prescription refills.
Other.
Similarly the following administrative activities were listed in
the postservice period:
Transcribe results/file and manage patient records.
Schedule postoperative return evaluation and management
services/arrange for hospital readmission.
Notify and complete reports to referring MDs.
Conduct billing activities (coordinate bill collection/
rebilling, collect coinsurance payments or deductibles, postcertify
patient).
During the second round of the CPEPs, Abt collected the inputs by
the broader category of service. For example, for additional evaluation
and management services codes in the same family as the reference code,
Abt collected totals on clinical times for the preservice period, the
intraservice period, and the postservice period. Similarly, the same
process was followed for administrative inputs. This less detailed,
more aggregated, process was used because of the large volume of
procedure codes the CPEPs had to review during the second round and
because the CPEPs believed this level of detail was sufficient.

b. Pricing of Clinical Practice Expert Panels' Direct Inputs.
Having identified the type and quantity of direct inputs from the
CPEP process, our methodology required the assignment of a national
price for each resource input. Abt priced each of the CPEP direct
inputs (nonphysician labor, medical supplies, and medical equipment)
using a specific methodology. The methodology for each of these items
is discussed below.
(1) Nonphysician Labor.
Abt calculated the total compensation per minute for approximately
100 occupational categories that include clinical and administrative
staff. The data sources for these staff identified hourly wages,
including fringe benefits, per person for 1993 or 1994. These wages
were updated to 1995 using the Employment Cost Index for Wages and
Salaries in Private Health Industries (published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics). They were converted to total compensation by adjusting the
wage rate by a fringe benefits multiplier. The fringe benefits
multiplier is 36.6 percent for all occupational categories. This is
estimated from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Employer Costs for
Employee Compensation for March 1995. Abt calculated the fringe benefit
multiplied from the Bureau of Labor Statistics data using the ratio of
the total cost of all benefits to the wage rate for all workers in
private health services industries.
Three specific data sources were used. They were: (1) The Bureau of
Labor Statistics' ``White Collar Pay Survey of Service-Producing
Industries'' dated 1989 and the ``Occupational Compensation Survey''
dated 1994; (2) ``The Survey of Hospital and Medical School Salaries''
dated 1994 performed by the University of Texas Medical Branch; and (3)
the Current Population Survey dated 1993. Although all three data
sources were used, in cases of similar categories across data sets, the
Bureau of Labor Statistics data were considered to be the primary data
set. The University of Texas Medical Branch and Current Population
Survey data were treated as supplements to be used when the Bureau of
Labor Statistics' data could not provide sufficient detail.
Abt categorized all personnel into five broad categories: clinical
staff, administrative staff, clinical composite staff, administrative
composite staff, and clinical/administrative composite staff. The
administrative composite staff refers, for example, to a function
described by a CPEP that could be performed by different personnel. A
composite labor rate was calculated for this function for this CPEP.
We use the occupational category of the medical secretary to
illustrate the mapping of the price for an administrative staff
position. Every CPEP reported that a medical secretary performed
certain functions as part of the procedure codes reviewed by that CPEP.
From the Bureau of Labor Statistics' data, the updated 1995 total
compensation, including fringe benefits, for a level II medical
secretary is $16.43 per hour. (The Bureau of Labor Statistics furnishes
skilled level variations in wages and duties for registered nurses,
licensed practical nurses, secretaries, office clerks, and nursing
assistants. In general, as we advised, Abt used the Bureau of Labor
Statistics' wage for level II staff.) This converts to a total
compensation per minute of $0.274 for a medical secretary, and this
labor rate was made uniform across all CPEPs. If, for example, a CPEP
specified that a medical secretary was needed for 10 minutes to provide
administrative services for a specific CPT code, that labor input would
be costed at $2.74.
Similarly, we use the occupational category of a registered nurse
to illustrate the mapping of the price for a clinical staff position.
Every CPEP, except the gastroenterology CPEP, reported that a
registered nurse performed certain functions with respect to the
procedure codes reviewed by that CPEP. The hourly wage for a level II
registered nurse was $18.52 under the Bureau of Labor Statistics'
survey. The total compensation, including fringe benefits, for a
registered nurse is $25.30 per hour. This converts to a total
compensation per minute of $0.422. Thus, for each CPEP, the minutes of
a registered nurse's time are costed at $0.422. If, for example, a CPEP
specified that a registered nurse was needed for 10 minutes to provide
clinical services for a specific CPT code for a patient, that direct
input would be costed at $4.22.
(2) Medical Supplies.
Overall, the CPEPs identified 665 supply items for which Abt
obtained prices from three types of sources:
Published catalogs--These were used for the most common
supplies and CPEP panelists often provided recommendations of catalogs
or other sources.
Contacts with suppliers--This source was used primarily
for specialized supplies.
CPEP members--This source was used if prices were
unavailable from catalogs or suppliers.
Examples of medical supplies include disposable gowns, examination
table paper, disposable pillow cases, nonsterile or sterile gloves,
disposable
[[Page 33164]]
suture removal kit, Vicryl suture, 4-0 and 5-0, and sterile gauze. Abt
used the same prices for these supplies across all CPEPs. For example,
for all CPEPs, the price of the disposable gown is $0.57 per item and
is based on a representative price from Baxter Healthcare Corporation,
a major medical supplier. Similarly, the price of the disposable suture
removal kit for all CPEPs is $5.45 per kit and is based on a
representative price from Darby Drug Company.
(3) Medical Equipment.
Medical equipment was divided into two categories--procedure-
specific equipment and overhead equipment. Procedure-specific medical
equipment is used for a specific subset of services within a specialty,
such as a stress-test treadmill as part of a cardiology procedure.
Overhead medical equipment is either used for all services furnished or
is rarely used (for example, a crash cart containing emergency
supplies) but is routinely purchased and maintained in a practice and
is difficult to attribute to a specific service. Only equipment with
costs equal to or exceeding $500 was costed under the medical equipment
methodology. The cost per use for equipment costing less than $500 was
considered to be trivial.
Information about the type of equipment used to furnish each
service was obtained from the CPEPs. Abt applied price data to the
resource profiles generated by the CPEPs. In most cases, Abt collected
list prices from equipment suppliers. For example, the list price for a
flexible laryngoscope is $5,080 (this information is from Welch-Allyn,
a medical equipment supplier). Prices were obtained for almost 400
equipment items.
Despite our repeated requests to the medical community, there is no
source of data on utilization levels of equipment across all procedures
and payers. Without these data, assumptions had to be made about the
levels of utilization of equipment to compute a cost per minute.
To cost procedure-specific and overhead equipment, Abt assumed 70-
percent and 100-percent utilization rates, respectively. Based on
comments from the physician specialty groups, we have changed the
utilization level for procedure-specific equipment from 70 percent to
50 percent. We invite comments on the appropriate utilization level for
procedure-specific equipment in general.
Procedure-specific equipment was costed based on the number of
minutes the equipment was used for the procedure. The proxy for this is
usually technician time. Overhead equipment was costed based on the
estimated time for the staff with the most involvement in the
procedure. For example, if a procedure involving a piece of equipment
was performed in the office and involved 15 minutes of registered nurse
time and 30 minutes of physician assistant time, the time of the
procedure would be 30 minutes since this is the longest of the
nonphysician clinical staff times.
The objective in pricing medical equipment was to establish an
equipment cost per minute. The equipment pricing model uses the
following variables:
The purchase price of the equipment with primary sources
of information from national manufacturers.
The useful life of the equipment with primary sources of
information from ``Useful Life Guidelines'' from the American Hospital
Association.
The annual maintenance cost with primary sources of
information from the Medical Group Management Association.
The cost of capital.
The time per procedure with primary sources of information
from CPEP labor estimates.
The hours of practice (that is, 50 hours per week and 50
weeks per year) with primary sources of information from the Medical
Group Management Association and the AMA.
The machine capacity, based on a practice's hours, with
the assumption that the equipment operates at a fixed percentage (in
this case 50 percent) of capacity.
Ideally, a cost of capital would be established from a nationally
representative sample of data containing loan rates and length of loan
for physician practices. Such data do not exist. As a result, Abt
developed proxy data based on prevailing loan rates for small
businesses. In this model, interest rates varied by the loan period
(one rate for periods less than or equal to 7 years and another for
periods greater than 7 years) and based on the purchase price of the
equipment (one rate for equipment costing less than or equal to $25,000
and another for equipment costing more than $25,000).
Interest Rate
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Loan period Loan
period > 7
Amount 7 years years
(percent) (percent)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
>$25,000....................................... 9.5 10
$25,000............................. 10.5 11
------------------------------------------------------------------------
For example, the cost of capital for an item of medical equipment
costing more than $25,000 and with a useful life less than 7 years was
assigned an interest rate of 9.5 percent.
The following example illustrates the application of the pricing
model for equipment that is used to perform only one type of procedure
code, assuming the following:
The equipment is operated at 50 percent of capacity.
The practice operates 50 hours per week or 105,000 minutes
per year (60 minutes/hour x 50 hours/week x 50 weeks/year x .50=75,000
minutes).
The cost of capital (that is, the interest cost of a loan
or opportunity cost of invested funds) is 9.5 percent.
The purchase price of the equipment is $30,000.
The useful life of the equipment is 5 years.
The annual maintenance costs are 5 percent of the annual
purchase price (.05 x $30,000) or $1,500.
The procedure performed on the equipment takes 10 minutes.
Cost per procedure=10 x [$30,000/(75,000 x 3.8397)+1,500/75,000]
Cost per procedure=$1.24
Note: 3.38397 represents 1/(1+r)t where t=0
to 5. The cost of capital is discounted by the number of years of
useful life. The annualized capitalized cost for the equipment is
$9,313, which is the annual maintenance cost of $1,500, plus the
annualized purchase price ($7,813), taking into account the
opportunity cost of capital or $30,000 divided by 3.8397.
7. Practice Cost Survey
Abt designed a practice cost survey (the ``Survey of Practice
Costs'') to collect information on the total costs of a physician's
practice and service mix, that is, the type and frequency of individual
services furnished by a physician's practice by site of service. The
survey elements incorporated recommendations from a large panel of
practice cost research experts. Data were collected on the entire
physician practice, not just services furnished to Medicare
beneficiaries.
One of the objectives of the survey was to link the total practice
expense and the services furnished in various settings--office and
nonoffice. While it was our expectation that the survey would have
yielded data to assist in the development of methodologies to allocate
indirect costs to specific services, the survey itself would not have
determined the indirect costs for specific procedures. By definition,
it is not possible to directly survey indirect costs associated with
specific procedures. The survey sought to collect
[[Page 33165]]
data on aggregate indirect costs of practices, and, if successful, such
aggregate indirect costs could have been allocated or assigned to
specific services or families of codes using economic cost estimates.
Sampling frames for the survey were developed with input from the
medical community. Approximately 5,000 solo and group physician
practices were selected at random for participation in the sampling
frame from the AMA's databases. In addition, more than 800 nonphysician
practices from 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico
were chosen for the initial mailings. Included, in addition to the
practices of medical doctors, were practices of optometrists,
podiatrists, clinical psychologists, and physical therapists identified
from membership lists furnished by specialty societies.
Initially, the survey was to be performed in two rounds. The first
phase of the study began in April 1996 when Abt sent letters to
approximately 1,700 group and solo physician practices nationwide. Soon
after each physician practice received this letter, Abt called to
assess whether each physician practice met the sampling criteria to
qualify for participation in the survey. To be included in the survey,
the physician practice had to be operating at least 1 year and have at
least one practitioner who practiced at least 20 hours a week. If a
practice was eligible, it was sent a copy of the survey.
The response rate from the first round of the survey was so poor
(approximately 27 percent responded) that the survey would not have
provided an adequate basis for reliable estimates of practice expense
by procedure. Thus, in September 1996, we told Abt to discontinue the
survey. We decided to use alternative approaches that allocate the
current pool of indirect RVUs to individual codes.
8. Methodology for Developing Practice Expense Relative Value Units
Abt furnished the data files that included information on the
direct inputs reported by the CPEPs for clinical and administrative
labor, medical supplies, medical equipment, and the methods to price
these direct inputs.
We are proposing to adjust the CPEP data based on the following
data editing rules and on a statistical linking methodology.
a. Proposed Rules for Editing Clinical Practice Expert Panels'
Data.
We are proposing to apply the following Medicare payment policy
rules to ensure that the reported data are consistent with our national
hospital and physician payment policies and to ensure that the data are
inherently consistent.
The direct inputs recorded for medical equipment and
medical supplies to hospital patients were generally removed. These
items are covered as hospital inpatient or outpatient services;
therefore, payment is made only to the hospital. If a physician incurs
costs for these items, the physician should seek payment from the
hospital.
From the CPEPs, we identified the following four distinct functions
that the physician's staff occasionally perform for hospital patients:
+ Serve as an assistant at surgery.
+ Act as a scrub nurse or perform other nursing functions.
+ Make medical rounds on patients to assess condition, educate, and
coordinate care.
+ Communicate with hospital staff, laboratories, families,
pharmacies, and others to arrange discharge and posthospital care.
We considered each type of activity and made the following
decisions:
+ The services of assistants at surgery are paid separately under
the physician fee schedule if the assistant is a physician or a
physician assistant. Medicare recognizes no other benefit for others to
serve as an assistant surgeon.
+ Nursing functions are supplied by the hospital. The claim by some
physicians that nursing care provided by the hospital is not adequate
is a serious issue. However, this is a matter properly addressed by
licensure, accrediting bodies, and governing bodies, not as a physician
practice expense.
+ Assessment of patients, preoperative and postoperative care,
medical record documentation, and patient education have been valued as
physician work. As part of the five year review of physician work, we
increased the work RVUs for surgical global fees in response to surveys
showing that they represent physician work. To pay practice expense for
staff to perform the same functions is double payment.
+ Physician clinical staff perform a coordination and communication
role for hospital patients. Although not all the physician panels
identified this activity, we believe it is a common activity. We
specifically included 15 minutes of a registered nurse's time in all
global surgical practice expense values.
The Abt worksheets accumulated direct inputs for
diagnostic tests performed in the office and out of the hospital. Under
the physician fee schedule, these tests are reported with three
separate values: A TC, a PC, and a complete service value, which is the
sum of the TC and PC RVUs. The typical service provided in the office
is the complete service. The typical service provided in the hospital
is the PC service. However, Abt did not collect information for the TC
of the service. We limited the practice expense RVUs to the sum of the
TC and PC practice expense RVUs. To do this, we used the following
methodology: The administrative cost for the complete service was
equally divided between the PC and the TC services; and the clinical
staff cost for the complete service was assigned entirely to the TC
service.
Certain procedures, under the physician fee schedule, use
an indicator of ``ZZZ'' for the global period. This indicator describes
services that are always billed in conjunction with another service.
CPT code 11101, biopsy of additional skin lesion, is an example of a
procedure code that has a ``ZZZ'' indicator. We eliminated the
administrative staff cost from the ``ZZZ'' procedure code. All the
administrative cost is associated with the primary service for which
the ``ZZZ'' series is associated.
Many physicians report and are paid for the allergy
testing and immunotherapy procedure codes on a per-test, per-dose, or
per-vial basis, although these services are usually performed several
times during one encounter. We considered two methods for establishing
the resources for these procedure codes. Under one approach, we would
include the fixed costs with the first procedure code; subsequent
billings would reflect variable costs. Although this seems economically
sound, it might create a financial incentive for an allergist to
perform the fewest number of tests possible per session thereby
requiring the patient to return for additional testing.
Another possible approach would be to identify the amount of time,
both clinical and administrative, associated with the typical patient
who ordinarily receives multiple tests during a single encounter and
divide these resources by the typical number of tests. The advantage of
this approach is that there would be no financial incentive to perform
as few tests as possible per session requiring the patient to return
for additional testing. This averaging method underpays the allergist
who furnishes more than the typical number of tests and overpays the
physician who performs fewer than the typical number of tests. However,
in the aggregate, the averaging process would compensate the physician
appropriately.
[[Page 33166]]
Accordingly, we used this method to cost the CPEP data.
b. Proposed Linking Methodology
To validate the estimates from the CPEP process, we asked Abt to
assign a large number of procedure codes to multiple CPEPs. For
example, a mid-level office visit (CPT code 99213) was evaluated by
most of the CPEPs. We used this evaluation of procedure codes to
``normalize'' the results of the various CPEPs. We could have averaged
the labor cost for the replicated procedure codes across the CPEPs that
evaluated these procedures. However, we are not proposing to use this
approach because it would disturb the relative rankings of procedure
codes within the CPEPs.
Based on our observations of the CPEP process, we believe that the
relative relationships within CPEPs are generally correct but the
absolute time estimates need normalization. The CPEPs had specific ways
of going about the process of evaluating procedure codes. Abt collected
data on tasks that are done simultaneously, such as bringing the
patient to the waiting room and asking the patient questions. Although
the data were collected in discrete increments as discrete tasks, often
they are simultaneously performed. Thus, the absolute numbers may
reflect some degree of duplicate counting. In addition, different CPEPs
may not have viewed these simultaneities in the same way. Finally,
different amounts of labor inputs reported by CPEPs may reflect nothing
more than practice preference differences across specialties and CPEPs.
``Linking'' is what we call the normalization process.
Specifically, linking shifts an entire CPEP's data relative to other
CPEP's data based on the relationships across CPEPs for the replicated
codes. We separately linked clinical and administrative labor costs.
Statistically, the linking was done using regression methods as
indicated in Addendum B. The linking adjustment factors also are listed
in Addendum B.
c. Data Reasonableness.
Once the data had been edited and linked, the total direct practice
expense RVUs assigned to each CPT code were examined by physicians and
other clinical staff at the Health Care Financing Administration.
Analysis of these direct practice expense RVUs revealed unexplainable
variation in the CPEPs' assigned practice expenses for procedures
considered by our clinical staff to have comparable practice expenses.
As a result, the components of the direct practice expense RVUs,
that is, the direct practice expense RVUs attributable to the clinical
and administrative labor, supplies, and equipment, were analyzed
statistically. The reference procedures for the CPEP families and
procedures with any of the component values identified as outliers
(defined as values either one-third or three times the mean) were
manually reviewed by HCFA physicians. The reviewers used the
information furnished by the CPEP panels regarding the specific types
of labor, supplies, and equipment used as well as the pricing of labor
categories, supplies, and equipment. The review was performed in
consultation with selected government physicians and Medicare carrier
medical directors and included review of publicly available information
on the pricing of selected high cost supplies. Conformance with our
payment policies was also considered in this review. During the review,
related procedures that were not identified by the outlier analysis
were also modified to preserve the relative relationship established by
the CPEPs for those closely related procedures. Since the data are
expressed in direct practice expense RVUs rather than in dollars, the
emphasis was on adjusting the relative rather than the absolute values
of the practice expenses.
From the review, two major problems were identified. First, the
administrative times assigned by the CPEPs to many of the diagnostic
tests and minor procedures appeared to be excessive when compared to
the administrative time assigned to the mid-level office visit (CPT
code 99213). Second, the clinical times assigned by the CPEPs to many
minor procedures appeared to be excessive when compared to the total
physician time required to perform the procedures. To correct these
problems, which we believe led to significant distortions in the
relativity of the entire scale of RVUs, two general rules were
established.
First, a decision was made to cap the administrative time of the
following categories of service at the administrative time assigned to
CPT code 99213: (a) Services and procedures without a global period,
and (b) procedures subject to global periods with zero follow-up days.
Second, we decided to cap the clinical time at 1.5 times the minutes
used by the physician or practitioner in performing the procedure. (The
professional time has been developed by the initial relative value
scale study performed at Harvard and modified by the American Medical
Association's RUC.) Certain types of procedures were exempted from this
restriction on clinical labor time. The limit was not applied to
diagnostic tests that can be split into a professional and a technical
component such as pathology codes in which the amount of technician
time preparing a specimen or performing a test are expected to involve
more than 1.5 times the physician time to interpret the result. The
limit was not applied to procedure codes such as colonoscopies that
typically involve anesthesia with post-procedure monitoring. Finally,
evaluation and management codes were exempted from this rule because
only a few procedure codes would be affected by the cap. Imposition of
a cap on selected procedure codes would distort the relative
relationship of the evaluation and management codes established by the
CPEP that focused on evaluation and management codes.
In addition, our review of the reference codes and outliers
identified specific problems with both individual procedure codes and
families of codes. Examples of the types of problems we identified and
our rationale for correcting them are described below.
1. Excessive Supply Costs and/or Qualities of Supplies
A. The list of supplies provided by the ophthalmology CPEP for many
of the ophthalmological services listed in the Medicine section of the
CPT, for example, the eye examination codes 92002 through 92014,
included one ounce of disinfectant solution with a supply cost of
$1,120 for a 50 ounce bottle. Because this price seemed excessive, we
contacted the Food and Drug Administration for information on the use
of disinfectant solution. We learned that established guidelines for
the disinfection of ophthalmic devices include the use of dilute bleach
solution, hydrogen peroxide, or isopropyl alcohol. The cost of any one
of these disinfectant solutions is clearly less than $1,120. Also, we
were unable to identify any other disinfectant on the market at a price
of $1,120. Therefore, we reduced the price to $11.20, resulting in a
decrease in the direct RVUs of all codes that included disinfectant
solution as a supply.
B. The list of supplies furnished by the orthopedic CPEP for many
of the codes involving fracture or dislocation care included fiberglass
casting material priced at $18.50 per roll. We reviewed the supply
prices in readily available catalogues and determined that $18.50 per
roll was excessive. Also, we concluded that the quantities of
fiberglass rolls for many of the procedure codes were excessive. Thus,
we reduced both the cost and the quantities of these supplies for those
[[Page 33167]]
procedure codes where they appeared. Finally, we believe that the
inclusion of casting material in the fracture or dislocation codes may
have been inappropriate, given that the initial casting costs are borne
by the hospital and subsequent casting during the post-operative period
may be separately reported and paid. This issue will be reviewed during
refinement.
2. Clinical Times
A. The clinical time estimate furnished by the evaluation and
management CPEP for the reference code for psychotherapy (CPT code
90844) is 35 minutes. We do not believe this represents the typical
amount of clinical support time associated with 45 to 50 minutes of
psychotherapy. We reduced it to 20 minutes. We accepted the relative
relationship of clinical times for the psychiatric services that was
established by the CPEP. To maintain that relationship, we made
corresponding reductions in the clinical times assigned by the CPEP to
the other psychiatric service codes.
B. The clinical time estimate furnished by the orthopedic and
integumentary CPEPs for the reference code for physical therapy
services (CPT code 97110, Therapeutic exercises) is 23 minutes of a
physical therapy aide. We believe this time estimate is excessive. The
code definition requires 15 minutes of hands-on time by the physician
or therapist. If an additional 15 minutes of physician or therapist
time is furnished, CPT code 97110 is billed with two units of service.
Because the CPEP data indicate that CPT code 97110 involves 32 minutes
of physician or therapist time, it appears the CPEP may have been
providing an estimate of the total time a physical therapy aide would
spend in support of a 32 minute session and failed to take into account
that a second unit of service could be billed if the physician or
therapist time extended to 30 minutes. Therefore, we made the following
adjustments to the physical therapy codes: (a) For unattended
modalities (CPT codes 97010 through 97028), we assigned 10 minutes of a
physical therapy aide; (b) for supervised modalities, (CPT codes 97032
through 97039), we assigned 15 minutes of a physical therapy aide; and,
(c) for most therapeutic procedures (CPT codes 97110 through 97542), we
assigned 12 minutes of a physical therapy aide.
C. The clinical times furnished by the miscellaneous medical
services CPEP for the reference code for chemotherapy services (CPT
code 96410, Chemotherapy infusion, one hour) is 109 minutes. We believe
this estimate is excessive when compared to other infusion procedure
codes. For example, the clinical time for CPT code 90780 (Infusion, one
hour) was 60 minutes. Also, our current policy regarding services such
as chemotherapy that are ``incident to'' a physician's services allows
the separate reporting of a level 1 evaluation and management service
(CPT code 99211) on a day a patient receives chemotherapy. In fact,
about 13 percent of the claims in 1995 for CPT code 99211 were billed
by the physicians identified by the specialty code for hematology and
oncology. Thus, there appears to be a duplication of time in the
chemotherapy codes and CPT code 99211. To correct these problems, we
decreased the clinical time for CPT code 96410 to 60 minutes and made
corresponding reductions to the other chemotherapy codes to maintain
the relative relationship established by the CPEP for the codes in the
chemotherapy family.
3. Administrative Times
The administrative time estimate furnished by the anesthesia and
pathology CPEP for the nerve block services, for example, CPT code
64405 was more than 3 hours. We do not believe this represents the
typical amount of administrative support time associated with these
minor procedures. We note that this estimate is nearly twice the
estimate of administrative times furnished by the neurosurgery CPEP for
a major neurosurgical procedure with a 90 day global period. We have
corrected this distortion of the relative relationships by reducing the
administrative RVUs for all the nerve block codes by 33 percent.
4. Equipment
In reviewing outliers for radiology services, we noted a
significant decrease in the practice expense RVUs for vascular
interventional radiology procedures such as arteriograms and
angioplasties. For example, the current practice expense RVUs for the
technical component of an aortogram (CPT code 75625) are 12.0 RVUs.
Based on the information furnished by the CPEP, the new RVU would be
6.06 and many of the other vascular radiology RVUs would be reduced to
less than one RVU. These reductions are clearly inappropriate. To
correct the problem, we reviewed the CPEP data and found that equipment
costs were missing for all the procedures except CPT code 75625. For
that procedure code, an estimate of $1.5 million for an angiography
room for 114 minutes was furnished. We accepted that estimate. Next, in
reviewing the supply cost estimate furnished for the same procedure
code, we noted that it did not include the supplies that would be
needed for furnishing conscious sedation. Further review of that CPEP
data identified the appropriate supply costs for conscious sedation in
CPT code 36200 (Introduction of catheter, aorta). We believe those
supply costs should have been assigned to the technical component of
the radiology CPT code 75625.
To establish RVUs for the vascular radiology family, we added the
supply costs from CPT code 36200 to the clinical, administrative, and
equipment costs of CPT code 75625. This resulted in a new direct
practice expense RVU of 8.15. This new value is 68 percent of the
current RVU of 12.0. We applied this percentage to the existing RVUs
for the vascular radiology codes. This was done to maintain the
relativity across the family of codes.
Because we had received no data on the practice expenses for the
technical components of cardiac catheterization services, we applied
the same 68 percent factor to the existing RVUs for those services. We
believe the practice expense costs of vascular radiology and cardiac
catheterization are sufficiently comparable to allow this extrapolation
of the data, particularly since no other data are available.
5. Families of Codes
A. In some situations, the review of reference codes and outliers
identified a problem with a single code that led to the need to make
adjustments across an entire family of codes. For example, the review
of supply costs for procedures with a global period of ``000''
identified diagnostic colonoscopy as a low outlier. We then noted that
the practice expense RVUs for proctosigmoidoscopies and flexible
sigmoidoscopies were significantly higher than the RVUs for colonoscopy
codes. We believe that this rank order problem was caused by a failure
of the CPEP to include supply costs for conscious sedation in the
colonoscopy codes, and the inappropriate inclusion of an expensive
supply item called a lumen tube in sigmoidoscopy codes. We do not
believe a lumen tube is a typical supply for sigmoidoscopy codes.
To correct these problems, we copied the conscious sedation supply
costs that were listed for the upper gastrointestinal endoscopy codes
to the colonoscopy codes and removed the lumen tube costs from the
sigmoidoscopy codes. These changes have established what we believe to
be a proper relative relationship across the entire family of
gastrointestinal endoscopy codes.
[[Page 33168]]
B. The pancreas transplant procedure (CPT code 48554) was
identified as a low outlier for total direct practice expense RVUs of
procedures with a 90 day global period. Based on CPEP data, 0.16 RVUs
were assigned to the procedure code. The direct practice expense RVUs
assigned to the liver transplant procedure (CPT code 47135, 8.67 RVUs)
had the highest direct practice expense RVUs of any transplant surgery.
This is clearly an anomalous value. This led to a review of all the
major transplant codes. The heart, heart-lung, and lung transplants all
were valued at 2.35 RVUs, which is lower than the RVUs assigned to
kidney transplants (CPT code 50360, 4.22 RVUs. To correct the
relationship of the transplant codes, we adjusted the transplant RVUs
as follows: a) The pancreas transplant value was increased to the level
of the liver transplant, and b) the heart, heart-lung, and lung
transplant values were increased to the level of the kidney transplant
codes. We believe this is an appropriate relationship across the family
of transplant codes than was established by the CPEP data.
The examples listed above are illustrative of the types of problems
inherent in a data collection effort involving more than 7,000
procedure codes. The effort is further complicated by the need to
establish RVUs for both in-office and out-of-office settings based on
clinical staff times, administrative staff times, supplies, procedure
specific equipment, and overhead equipment. We have completed a
preliminary review of the reference codes and the outliers only. Thus,
the possibility of similar types of problems for other procedure codes
as described above are quite high. As described in the section on
Refinement Process (section 10), we invite comments that will identify
problems and propose solutions. In addition to the specific data
problems described above, we have identified but not yet addressed
several other potential problems.
First, we are concerned that the clinical times reported by the
CPEPs are the same as those spent by physicians in the physician work
RVUs. For example, as part of the 5-year review of the work RVUs, we
increased the work RVUs of the evaluation and management codes in
recognition of the increased time spent by physicians to:
Document care and respond to questions regarding medical
necessity and adherence to quality standards.
Obtain or provide authorizations for tests and referrals.
Coordinate care with other health professionals and family
members, particularly for elderly patients.
Provide education regarding issues such as fall prevention
and adverse drug reactions and respond to questions from an
increasingly well-informed patient population.
These are the same type of activities the CPEPs indicated were
performed by the physicians' clinical staff. This potential duplication
in the evaluation and management and other services will be examined
during our refinement process.
Second, we are concerned that the CPEPs' estimates of clinical and
administrative times were developed on a code-by-code basis and failed
to take into account the fact that clinical and administrative staff
often furnish services to more that one patient at a time. For example,
the estimates of clinical time assigned to the chemotherapy codes (more
than 100 minutes for a 1-hour infusion) assumed that only this service
was being furnished. We believe that during a one hour infusion, a
chemotherapy nurse will provide services to other patients.
Another example relates to administrative times. Several CPEPs
assigned considerable amounts of time to obtaining authorizations for
service, including time spent on the telephone on hold. We believe that
while administrative staff are on hold, they often are furnishing
services to other patients. Also, the apparent failure of the CPEPs to
take into account these efficiencies of practice will need to be
examined during our refinement process.
d. Indirect Expense Relative Value Units.
The design of the resource-based practice expense RVU system
involves the calculation of a direct expense RVU (from CPEP direct
expense data) and an indirect expense RVU per procedure code. We
considered different options under which the pool of indirect RVUs
(calculated from the pool of total practice expense RVUs allowed under
the physician fee schedule) could be allocated to individual procedure
codes on the basis of some algorithm.
There is not a single, universally accepted approach for allocating
indirect practice costs to individual procedure codes. Rather,
allocation involves judgment in identifying the base or bases that are
the best measures of a practice's indirect costs. Simply stated,
indirect practice expenses can be allocated using a basis such as
physician time, nonphysician time, total direct practice expenses, or
some combination of these variables.
We convened a meeting with physician specialty groups on January
22, 1997 to present the following two preliminary options in which
indirect costs might be allocated to individual codes: to allocate
costs based on physician time or allocate costs based on nonphysician
staff time. These are relatively simple methods for us to administer
and for physicians to understand. Daniel L. Dunn and Eric Latimer at
Harvard University conducted research for HCFA using physician time as
a basis for allocating indirect costs to individual procedure codes.
Since nonphysician labor accounts for over 70 percent of direct
expenses and direct expenses contribute to indirect costs, we examined
this method.
One of the major concerns with the physician time model is that
aggregate indirect costs would be constant across all specialties since
all physicians work similar time. Following the January 22, 1997
meeting, the AMA furnished us with data on specialty-specific indirect
cost per hour that we could use in conjunction with physician time for
procedure codes to allocate to indirect costs based on physician time.
This would allow us to allocate indirect costs based on actual cost
patterns of physician specialists.
We did not select a physician time or a nonphysician time model
because these models are not complete. Each contains only one variable,
yet there are other variables that can contribute to indirect costs.
The physician time model ignores nonphysician staff time and other
direct expenses. It would undervalue procedures such as diagnostic
tests with lengthy technician time. The nonphysician time model ignores
physician time and other direct practice expenses. It would undervalue
surgical procedures in the hospital.
As we conducted additional analyses, we narrowed our consideration
to two models. We examined a ``pass through'' model in which the
current indirect practice expense of each RVU would be retained. Under
this model, the indirect cost per procedure is calculated based on the
current practice expense RVUs and an indirect weighted specialty share
per procedure code. For example, if current practice expense RVUs for a
procedure are 20 units and it was performed by only one specialty with
an indirect practice expense share of total practice expenses (from AMA
data) of 40 percent, the indirect RVUs for this procedure code would be
8 units.
This option causes the least amount of redistribution. This
resulted in the narrowest range between physicians experiencing
increases in payments and
[[Page 33169]]
physicians experiencing decreases in payments. We did not select this
option because it partially relies on current charge-based practice
expense RVUs, which are not resource-based.
The option we selected allocates indirect costs based on the direct
costs (that is, the cost of nonphysician administrative and clinical
labor, medical equipment, and medical supplies), malpractice expenses,
and physician work per code. Except for the inclusion of malpractice
expenses, this is similar to the original Physician Payment Review
Commission model presented in its 1993 Annual Report and which
contributed to the resource-based practice expense RVUs legislation.
From a cost accounting standpoint, this method is appealing because it
allocates indirect costs based on the variables that are expected to
drive indirect costs.
e. Steps in the Methodology.
We describe below the individual steps in the methodology that were
used to compute the resource-based direct and indirect practice expense
RVUs. The data sources we used were the 1996 AMA's Socioeconomic
Monitoring Survey (containing 1995 data) and the 1995 Medicare National
Claims History Files. The steps are as follows:
Step 1--Calculate the total pool of practice expense RVUs for
physician fee schedule services furnished in 1995.
Multiply the frequency of the fee schedule service by the
current number of practice expense RVUs. Adjustments were made for
services subject to the site-of-service payment differential and
services subject to different payment rules such as multiple surgery,
bilateral surgery, and assistant at surgery for which the number of
practice expense RVUs differs from the usual number of practice expense
RVUs per procedure code.
Step 2--Determine the percentage of total practice expense RVUs
that are attributable to direct expenses and that are attributable to
indirect practice expenses.
Use the 1996 AMA Socioeconomic Monitoring System that
represents 1995 survey expense data and categorizes expenses by
nonphysician payroll, materials and supplies, medical equipment, and
office expenses.
Based on the AMA's data, calculate specific percentages
for direct and indirect expenses for each physician specialty. For each
physician fee schedule procedure code, calculate a weighted direct
expense share by multiplying the physician specialty's percentage of
allowed charges by its corresponding direct expense weight. The allowed
practice expense RVUs per procedure code were multiplied by the direct
expense share per code and summed over all procedure codes to compute
the total direct expense RVUs.
The indirect expense RVUs were calculated by subtracting
the total direct expense RVUs from the total practice expense RVUs.
The national distribution of direct and indirect expense
RVUs in Medicare data are 55 percent direct and 45 percent indirect.
Step 3--Calculate a direct expense RVU per procedure code.
After data editing, the direct inputs from the CPEP
process were multiplied by their corresponding prices. We adjusted the
labor data further by applying linking coefficients. For example,
clinical and administrative labor costs were each adjusted by the
linking coefficients for that CPEP. (The linking adjustment factors are
included in Addendum B.) Because medical supplies were not affected by
linking, no further adjustment was made. Since clinical labor times are
used to calculate the cost of medical equipment per use, the linked
adjusted clinical labor times were substituted for the CPEP reported
medical equipment clinical labor times. For reference codes for which
we had estimates from several CPEPs, we generally chose the procedure
code from the CPEP with the specialty that furnished the procedure most
frequently.
In the aggregate, the percentage shares from the CPEP
process for labor (both clinical and administrative labor), medical
supplies, and medical equipment were equated to the 1996 AMA's
Socioeconomic Monitoring Survey percentage shares for the same
categories. In the aggregate, for all CPEPs, labor comprised 60
percent; medical supplies comprised 17 percent; and medical equipment
comprised 23 percent of the total direct expenses. Under the 1996 AMA's
Socioeconomic Monitoring Survey, the labor, medical supplies and
medical equipment comprise 73 percent, 18 percent, and 9 percent,
respectively, of total direct expenses. Thus, the CPEP expenses for
labor, medical supplies, and medical equipment were adjusted by scaling
factors of 1.21, 1.06, and .39, respectively, for labor, medical
supplies, and medical equipment.
After adjusting for data editing, linking, and scaling,
the components of the direct expenses were summed for each procedure
code. We then applied the data reasonableness rules discussed earlier.
The direct expense amount per procedure code was converted
to a direct expense RVU per code. We multiplied the direct expense per
procedure code by the ratio of direct expense RVUs to direct expense
dollars and divided the resultant direct expense RVU by a single
weighted average CF.
Step 4--Calculate an indirect expense RVU per procedure code.
Calculate the total pool of indirect expense RVUs by
subtracting the pool of indirect expense RVUs from the total pool of
RVUs.
Allocate the pool of indirect expense RVUs to individual
procedure codes. Of total physician fee schedule RVUs, 41 percent are
practice expense RVUs, 54 percent are work RVUs, and 5 percent are
malpractice expense RVUs. Of the 41 percent practice expense RVUs, 55
percent are direct expense RVUs and 45 percent are indirect expense
RVUs. Therefore, of the total RVUs, 18 percent (.45 x .41) are
indirect expense RVUs.
These RVUs are allocated to individual procedure codes by
multiplying the code-specific sum of the physician work, direct
practice expense RVUs, and malpractice expense RVUs by a factor of
.219, which scales this total to the available indirect pool.
Step 5--Combine the direct and the indirect expense RVUs per
procedure code.
To assist commenters, we have included the resource-based practice
expense RVUs per procedure code for the in-office and out-of-office
setting, if appropriate, and the direct expense RVUs for each procedure
code in Addendum C. The indirect practice expense RVU per procedure
code is simply the total resource-based practice expense RVU minus the
direct practice expense RVU.
f. Gap-Filling Measures.
We performed two levels of gap-filling measures to compute RVUs for
certain procedure codes. Because the CPEP data are based on 1995 HCPCS
codes, we established RVUs for the approximately 400 new procedure
codes added in 1996 and 1997. We gap-filled RVUs for these procedure
codes as follows:
We mapped the new procedure code to an existing source
code (that is, a 1995 procedure code) and used the practice expense
data supplied by the CPEPs for the source code. In most cases, the new
procedure code mapped directly to a source code.
We requested assistance from specialty societies for codes
that were difficult to map.
There were a large number of procedure codes for which there were
no values for a procedure furnished in an office. For example, there
were some procedures that, although costed only in the out-of-office
setting, could have been performed in the office but were
[[Page 33170]]
not given values by Abt. This occurred because the CPEPs were
instructed not to enumerate the inputs for a procedure furnished less
than 10 percent of the time in a given setting. In addition, this could
have occurred because the CPEPs chose not to enumerate the inputs or
they enumerated the inputs, but Abt was not able to determine the price
for one or more of the inputs.
We calculated the mean value for each component (that is, the
clinical labor, administrative labor, equipment, and supplies) of the
direct practice expense RVUs by the family of codes or the CPEP mean.
In general, the direct practice expense RVU gap-filing method used
these mean values. For example, if a code was not valued for a site-of-
service (out-of-office or in-office), the mean RVU for the family of
codes for that site-of-service was used. If there were no values for
that site-of-service for the family of codes in question, the mean
value for the CPEP for that site-of-service was used. A separate
calculation was performed for each of the four components which were
summed to derive a direct practice expense RVU for each procedure code
by site-of-service that required gap-filling. The results of this
process were then subjected to clinical review and revised as
appropriate.
The indirect practice expense RVU gap-filling method closely
followed the process used to calculate the indirect practice expense
RVUs in general. Since every procedure code was given a direct practice
expense RVU, the allocation variables existed to derive indirect
practice expense RVUs as a function of the work of the procedure code,
the direct cost for the procedure code (for the relevant site-of-
service), and the malpractice expense RVUs for the procedure code.
These RVUs were then placed on the resource-based practice expense
RVU scale.
9. Other Practice Expense Policies
a. Site-of-Service Payment Differential
Under the physician fee schedule, if a physician's services of the
type routinely furnished in physician offices are furnished in facility
settings, our current policy is that the fee schedule amount for the
service is determined by reducing the practice expense RVUs for the
service by 50 percent. Certain services are excluded from the
regulation including rural health clinic services, surgical services
not on the ambulatory surgical center covered list that are furnished
in an ambulatory surgical center, anesthesia services, and diagnostic
and therapeutic radiology services (see Sec. 414.32 (Determining
payments for certain physician services furnished in facility
settings)).
The site-of-service payment differential is a long established
policy to avoid duplicate payments for practice costs while, at the
same time, recognizing that some office practice cost is incurred when
physicians perform procedures outside the office setting. The site-of-
service policy applies to both inpatient and outpatient hospital
settings.
Since the implementation of the physician fee schedule, we have
compiled a list of services furnished outside physicians' offices that
are subject to the site-of-service payment differential. The current
list includes approximately 700 services.
As part of the resource-based practice expense initiative, we are
proposing to replace the current policy that systematically reduces the
practice expense RVUs by 50 percent for certain procedures with a
policy that would generally identify two different levels (office or
nonoffice) of practice expense RVUs for each procedure code depending
on the site-of-service. In general, we would furnish two levels of
practice expense RVUs per code; one when the procedure is performed in
the office or other site if no additional facility fee is paid and
another when the procedure is performed out of the office (in a
hospital or an ambulatory surgical center in which the costs of
resources, such as labor, medical supplies, and medical equipment are
paid outside the physician fee schedule and only to the hospital or
ambulatory surgical center).
Some services by the nature of their codes are performed only in
certain settings and will have only one level of practice expense RVU
per code. Many of these are evaluation and management codes with code
descriptions specific as to the site-of-service. Examples of these
codes are the following:
Inpatient hospital care for new or established patients (CPT codes
99221 through 99223).
Subsequent hospital care (CPT codes 99231 through 99233).
Initial hospital and follow-up inpatient consultations (CPT codes
99251 through 99275).
Emergency department services for new or established patients (CPT
codes 99281 through 99285).
Critical care services (CPT codes 99291 through 99297).
Nursing facility services (CPT codes 99301 through 99303).
Subsequent nursing facility care (CPT codes 99311 through 99313).
Domiciliary, rest home (CPT codes 99321 through 99333).
Home services (CPT codes 99341 through 99353).
We note that office or other outpatient evaluation and management
services (CPT codes 99201 through 99215) are used to report services
furnished in the physician's office or in a hospital outpatient
department; therefore, these procedure codes will have different levels
of practice expense RVUs.
Other services, such as most major surgical services with a 90-day
global period, are performed entirely or almost entirely in the
hospital, and we are generally providing a practice expense RVU only
for the out-of-office setting. Similarly, other services will be
furnished almost exclusively in the office setting, and we are
generally providing separate practice expense RVUs only for the in-
office setting.
In the majority of cases, however, we would provide both in-office
and out-of-office practice expense RVUs. The higher in-office practice
expense RVUs are generally used to calculate payments for services
performed in a physician's office and for services furnished to a
patient in the patient's home, a nursing facility, skilled nursing
facility, or facility or institution other than a hospital or
ambulatory surgical center. For these services, the facility is not
paid a separate fee for the cost of resources such as labor, medical
supplies, and medical equipment associated with the physician service.
The lower out-of-office practice expense RVUs are generally used to
calculate payments for services furnished to hospital and ambulatory
surgical center patients. Payment for nonphysician services and other
items, including medical equipment and supplies, is made only to the
hospital by the intermediary on either a prospective-payment or a
reasonable-cost basis or to the ambulatory surgical center as part of
the facility fee payment.
b. Additional Relative Value Units for Additional Office-Based
Expenses for Certain Procedure Codes.
Usually, office medical supplies associated with performing medical
or surgical services in the physician's office are included in the
practice expense portion of the payment for the medical or surgical
service to which they are incidental. The November 1991 final rule (56
FR 59522) included a policy that allowed a practice expense RVU of 1.0
to pay for supplies that are used incident to a physician's service but
generally are not the type of routine supplies included in the practice
expense RVUs for specific services. For example, if the physician
performed a cystourethroscopy with a biopsy (CPT
[[Page 33171]]
code 52204) in the office and billed for a surgical tray (HCFA Common
Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) code A4550) in addition to the
procedure, the physician would receive approximately $33 (an RVU of
.95) for the surgical tray in addition to the payment for the
cystourethroscopy with biopsy. The November 1991 final rule (56 FR
59811) listed 44 procedure codes that qualified for additional RVUs if
furnished in the physician's office. This list was expanded in the
December 1993 final rule (58 FR 63854) to include several cystoscopy
codes. Included in this list of procedures for which an additional
amount for supplies may be paid if performed in a physician's office
are closing a tear duct opening (CPT code 68761) and billing for a
permanent lacrimal duct implant (HCPCS code A4263) and inserting an
access port (CPT code 36533) and billing for an implantable vascular
access portal/catheter (A4300). These supplies were given the same RVU
as HCPCS code 4550.
We are proposing to revise this policy under the resource-based
practice expense system. We believe that the supply costs that this
policy is designed to cover were included in the supply inputs
identified by the CPEPs. Thus, they were included in the practice
expense RVUs for each related procedure code. Therefore, we are
proposing to discontinue separate payment for supply codes A4263,
A4300, and A4550.
c. Anesthesia Services.
Although physician anesthesia services are paid under the physician
fee schedule, these services do not have practice expense RVUs. Rather,
payment for physician anesthesia services is determined based on the
sum of allowable base and time units multiplied by a locality-specific
anesthesia CF.
Since the beginning of the physician fee schedule, overall budget
neutrality and work adjustments have been made to the anesthesia CF and
not to the base and time units. We propose to follow the same process
and make an adjustment to the anesthesia CF to move anesthesia services
under the resource-based practice expense system.
We would calculate the difference between the total practice
expense that would have been previously recognized and the total
practice expense RVUs that would be recognized under the resource-based
practice expense RVU system if physician anesthesia services were paid
in this manner. The practice expense RVUs that would be recognized
under the resource-based system are calculated from the Abt CPEP data
for anesthesia services using the same editing, scaling, and other
rules used for all other physician services for practice expense RVUs.
The practice expense RVUs recognized under the previous system are
determined by multiplying the total allowed charges for anesthesia
services by the practice expense share for anesthesia services based on
the 1996 AMA's Socioeconomic Monitoring Survey data.
10. Refinements
Shortly after the close of the comment period for this proposed
rule, we will conduct refinement panels using carrier medical directors
to help us address the comments on the proposed practice expense RVUs
for specific procedures. As preparation for the meeting, the carrier
medical directors will consult local physicians and other practitioners
for additional information as they did for physician work RVU
refinement panels in 1996.
Eventually, we would like comments in a specified format. However,
we believe this refinement process and format can be standardized only
after additional experience. Therefore, while we are not proposing a
specific format, we would ask that commenters draft their comments
according to the following guidelines.
Identify the problem in relative terms. That is, explain
how the RVUs for the procedure code might be incorrect related to its
associated family of procedure codes. This is similar to the rank order
anomalies for the work RVUs or other services.
After suggesting an appropriate RVU, furnish specific
documentation for a procedure code explaining the expected labor,
medical supplies, and medical equipment resources related to the
procedure code. For example, the commenter might state, and include
evidence, that certain supplies or labor inputs were omitted or the
wrong type of clinical labor category was used. Therefore, comments
should deal not only with the specific family of procedure codes but
with the RVUs of procedures performed by other specialties and primary
care physicians.
We are proposing that all practice expense RVUs published in the
final rule be considered interim RVUs and subject to comment following
publication of the final rule.
Eventually, we envision an annual refinement process of practice
expense RVUs for new and revised codes similar to the annual refinement
process used for physician work RVUs. We are considering a process for
practice expense updates similar to our work value refinement.
11. Reductions in Practice Expense Relative Value Units for Multiple
Procedures
Under the current policy, if more than one surgical service is
furnished for the same patient, by the same surgeon, on the same day,
the physician fee schedule amount for the second through the fifth
procedure is the lesser of the actual charge or 50 percent of the fee
schedule amount for the procedure. Surgical procedures beyond the fifth
procedure are priced ``by report'' based on the documentation for the
service furnished. These reductions are made in the allowance for the
service and, thus, affect the work, practice expense, and malpractice
expense components equally. Thus, we recognize there are efficiencies
in practice expenses when multiple surgeries are performed. This occurs
largely because the presurgical and postsurgical services performed in
the office setting are for the multiple surgeries instead of only one
surgery. Currently, the practice expenses for each surgery are
established independently as if each surgery was the only procedure
furnished, although the clinical and administrative staff time and the
medical supplies increase incrementally with additional surgical
procedures. The multiple surgery rule will continue to apply to the
resource-based practice expenses.
Currently, there is no corresponding reduction in practice expenses
for multiple nonsurgical services performed at the same time. At a
particular encounter, an office patient could receive an evaluation and
management service, diagnostic tests, and other medical procedures such
as physical therapy services. However, we make no reductions in the
practice expense RVUs for the additional services furnished during the
same encounter. We propose to reduce the practice expense RVUs for
additional procedures performed during the same encounter as an
evaluation and management service. We are considering two pricing
options:
Apply an across-the-board payment policy similar to the
multiple surgery policy that reduces, by some specified formula,
additional office-based services furnished with the evaluation and
management service (that is, the reduction would apply only to the
additional procedures, not to the medical visit).
Apply a procedure code-specific reduction that would apply
when that procedure is performed in the office.
We propose adopting one of these approaches. For the short term
(effective January 1, 1998), we propose the first option (with the same
50 percent
[[Page 33172]]
reduction for the second through fifth procedures, but not applying the
reduction to the medical visit). Later, we would like to move from the
first option to the second option. The first option is a broad-based
policy whereas the second option is more procedure code specific. We
invite comments on our proposed approach and any other recommendations
for specific pricing rules for multiple procedures furnished in
addition to an office medical visit.
12. Transition
The practice expense legislation requires the Secretary to develop
and implement a resource-based system for practice expenses under the
physician fee schedule, effective January 1, 1998. The law requires
that the system be budget neutral. Neither section 1848 of the Act nor
its accompanying legislative history provides for a transition period.
We are issuing this proposed rule to fulfill the statutory
requirement. However, we believe the magnitude of the redistributions
are of such consequence that legislation should be enacted to provide
for a transition period. This phased-in implementation schedule will
allow us to refine the application of our methodology to ensure that
the inequities this legislation was intended to address are eased. We
will work with the Congress to change the law so that resource-based
practice expense payments would be phased in gradually.
13. Proposed Regulations Revisions
We are proposing to revise Sec. 414.22 (Relative value units
(RVUs)), paragraph (b), (Practice expense RVUs), to state that for
services furnished beginning January 1, 1998, the practice expense RVUs
would be based on the relative practice expense resources involved in
furnishing the service. There would be only one level of practice
expense RVUs per code for the following categories of services: those
that have only TC practice expense RVUs; only PC practice expense RVUs;
certain evaluation and management services, such as hospital or nursing
facility visits, that are furnished exclusively in one setting; and
major surgical services. For other services, there would be two
different levels of practice expense RVUs per code. The lower practice
expense RVUs would apply to services furnished to hospital or
ambulatory surgical center patients. The higher practice expense RVUs
would apply to services furnished in a physician's office, or services
other than visits but performed in a patient's home and services
furnished to patients in a nursing facility, skilled nursing facility,
or an institution other than a hospital or ambulatory surgical center.
We are proposing to revise Sec. 414.32 (Determining payments for
certain physician services furnished in facility settings), paragraph
(b) (General rule) to state that if physician services of the type
routinely furnished in physicians' offices are furnished in facility
settings before January 1, 1998, the fee schedule amount for those
services would be determined by reducing the practice expense RVUs for
the service by 50 percent. Beginning January 1, 1998, we would
generally have two different practice expense RVUs per code.
We are proposing to revise Sec. 414.34, (Payment for services and
supplies incident to a physician's service), paragraph (a) (Medical
supplies), to state that if physician services of the type routinely
furnished in provider settings are furnished in a physician's office,
separate payment may be made for certain supplies furnished incident to
that physician service if they are furnished before January 1, 1998.
Beginning January 1, 1998, the cost of all medical supplies and
services would be included in the service-specific practice expense
RVUs.
B. Geographic Practice Cost Index Changes
1. Background
The Act requires that payments vary among fee schedule areas
according to the extent that resource costs vary as measured by the
Geographic Practice Cost Indices (GPCIs). In general, the fee schedule
areas that existed under the prior reasonable charge system were
retained under the fee schedule from calendar years 1992 to 1996. We
implemented a comprehensive revision in fee schedule payment areas
(localities) in 1997, reducing the number of localities from 210 to 89.
A detailed discussion of fee schedule areas can be found in the July 2,
1996 proposed rule (61 FR 34615) and the November 22, 1996 final rule
(61 FR 59494). We are required by section 1848(e)(1)(A) of the Act to
develop separate indices to measure resource cost differences among fee
schedule areas compared to the national average for each of the three
fee schedule components. While requiring that the practice expense and
malpractice indices reflect the full relative cost differences, the Act
requires that the work indices reflect only one-quarter of the relative
cost differences compared to the national average.
Section 1848(e)(1)(C) requires us to review and, if necessary,
adjust the GPCIs at least every 3 years. This section of the Act also
requires us to phase in the adjustment over 2 years and implement only
one-half of any adjustment if more than 1 year has elapsed since the
last GPCI revision. The GPCIs were first implemented in 1992, and the
first review and revision was implemented in 1995.
2. Development of the Geographic Practice Cost Indices
The GPCIs were developed by a joint effort of the Urban Institute
and the Center for Health Economics Research under contract to HCFA.
Indices were developed that measured the relative cost differences
among areas compared to the national average in a ``market basket'' of
goods. In this case, the market basket consists of the resources
involved with operating a private medical practice. The resource inputs
are physician work or net income; employee wages; office rents; medical
equipment, supplies, and other miscellaneous expenses; and malpractice
insurance. Employee wages, rents, and miscellaneous expenses are
combined to comprise the practice expense component of the GPCI. The
weights of these components in the original GPCIs (from 1992 through
1994) and the revised GPCIs (1995 through 1997) are as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Percentage of practice
costs
Input component -------------------------
1992-1994 1995-1997
GPCIs GPCIs
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Physician Work................................ 54.2 54.2
Practice Expense.............................. 40.2 41.0
Employee Wages.............................. 15.7 16.3
Rent........................................ 11.1 10.3
Miscellaneous Expenses...................... 13.4 14.4
Malpractice................................... 5.6 4.8
-------------------------
100.0 100.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The resource inputs and their weights were obtained from the AMA's
Socioeconomic Characteristics of Medical Practice Survey. The weights
for the 1992 through 1994 GPCIs were from the AMA's 1987 survey, while
the weights for the 1995 through 1997 GPCIs were from the 1989 survey.
The 1987 weights were the latest available when the original GPCIs were
being developed. The 1989 weights are those used in the revised
Medicare Economic Index (MEI) discussed in the November 25, 1992 final
rule (Medicare Program; Revision of the Medicare Economic Index) (57 FR
55899). The MEI is a measure of annual increases in the cost of
operating a private medical practice
[[Page 33173]]
and is used in the annual update of the physician fee schedule CFs.
Because the GPCIs and the MEI use the same resource inputs to measure
the costs of a private medical practice (the GPCIs measure relative
costs among areas while the MEI measures the national annual rate of
increase in costs), we believe the same weights should be used.
Once the components and their weights were determined, data sources
had to be found that were widely and consistently available in all
physician fee schedule areas to measure costs. After examining many
sources, the following proxies were selected as the best available
sources for measuring each component of the original 1992 through 1994
GPCIs:
Physician work--The median hourly earnings, based on a 20
percent sample of 1980 census data, of workers in six professional
specialty occupation categories (engineers, surveyors, and architects;
natural scientists and mathematicians; teachers, counselors, and
librarians; social scientists, social workers, and lawyers; registered
nurses and pharmacists; writers, artists, and editors) with 5 or more
years of college. Adjustments were made to produce a standard
occupational mix in each area. The actual reported earnings of
physicians were not used to adjust geographical differences in fees
because these fees are, in large part, the determinants of the
earnings. We believe that the earnings of physicians will vary among
areas to the same degree that the earnings of other professionals vary.
Employee wages--Median hourly wages of clerical workers,
registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and health technicians
were also based on a 20-percent sample of 1980 census data.
Office rents--Residential apartment rental data produced
annually by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) were
used because there were insufficient data on commercial rents across
all physician fee schedule data.
Miscellaneous expenses--The Urban Institute and the Center
for Health Economics research assumed that this component is
represented by a national market and that costs do not vary appreciably
among areas. This component's index is 1.000 for all areas to indicate
no variation from the national average.
Malpractice--Premiums in 1985 and 1986 for a mature
``claims made'' policy (a policy that covers malpractice claims made
during the covered period) providing $100,000 to $300,000 of coverage
were used. Adjustments were made to incorporate the costs of $1 million
to $3 million coverage and mandatory patient compensation fund
requirements. Premium data were collected for physicians in three risk
classes: low-risk (general practitioners who do not perform surgery),
moderate risk (general surgeons), and high-risk (orthopedic surgeons).
The areas selected for measurement purposes were the Metropolitan
Statistical Areas (MSAs). Non-MSA areas within a State were aggregated
into one residual area. Using MSAs for measurement satisfied the
criteria of (1) Homogeneity in resource input prices within the area,
and (2) a large enough size so that market areas are self-contained to
minimize border crossing; that is, physicians would not move their
offices a few miles to secure higher payments and patients would tend
to receive services within their area.
The Act requires, however, that the GPCIs reflect cost differences
among fee schedule areas. Thus, it was necessary to map Medicare
localities to the MSA and non-MSA aggregation of GPCI data. Where
localities crossed MSA boundaries, MSA indices were converted to
Medicare locality indices by population weights.
Detailed discussions of the methodology and data sources of the
1992 through 1994 GPCIs can be obtained by requesting the following
studies from the National Technical Information Service by calling 1-

1992 through 1994 GPCIs as published in the Federal Register in the
November 25, 1991 final rule (56 FR 59785).
3. Revised 1995 Through 1997 Geographic Practice Cost Indices
The main criticism of the original GPCIs was that they were
outdated because they were based on old data; for example, 1980 census
data and 1985 and 1986 malpractice premiums, the most recent data
available when the GPCIs were established. The revised 1995 through
1997 GPCIs were based on the most current data available when they were
developed in 1993 and 1994. We also made some minor changes from the
original GPCI methodology in calculating some of the revised 1995
through 1997 indices.
One methodological change was made that applied across all indices.
As mentioned earlier, under the original GPCIs, where Medicare
localities crossed MSA boundaries, MSA indices were converted to
locality indices by population weights. Medicare expenditure weights
were not used because the expenditures under the reasonable charge
system contained large differences unrelated to resource cost
differences among areas. In calculating the proposed revised GPCIs,
where localities crossed MSA boundaries, locality indices were
calculated by weights based on full fee schedule RVUs, which reflect
resource cost differences among areas. Full fee schedule RVUS were used
rather than actual 1993 payments because 1993 fee schedule payments
still reflected some reasonable charge payment levels. The advantages
of RVU weighting are (1) The GPCIs will more closely reflect physician
practice costs in the area where the services are provided rather than
where the population lives, and (2) budget neutrality is preserved when
combining multiple localities into larger areas, such as statewide
localities.
a. Work Geographic Practice Cost Indices.
Data from the 20-percent sample of census data of median hourly
earnings for the same six categories of professional specialty
occupations as used in the 1992 through 1994 work GPCIs were used in
calculating the 1995 through 1997 work GPCIs. The 1992 through 1994
work GPCIs were calculated using 1980 census data of earnings for
professionals with 5 or more years of college. That sample was no
longer available with the 1990 census. The 1990 census educational
classifications are by highest degree earned, rather than the 1980
census classification by years of schooling. Thus, it was not possible
to obtain earnings data exactly comparable to the 1980 data.
For 1990, data were available for all-education and advanced-degree
samples, but not for 5 or more years of college. We elected to use the
all-education sample because its larger sample sizes make it more
stable and accurate in the less populous areas. Although it could be
argued that physicians' earnings might more closely approximate the
earnings of professionals with advanced degrees, the differences
between the all-education and advanced-degree indices
[[Page 33174]]
were negligible in all but a few of the smallest localities. We believe
that the small sample sizes of advanced-degree occupations in these
small localities may produce inaccurate results.
The 1992 through 1994 work GPCIs utilized metropolitan-wide median
wages for each county within an MSA. That is, all counties within an
MSA are assigned the MSA-wide median wage even if there are wage
variations within the MSA. We believe that this is appropriate for all
but Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Areas (CMSAs), the largest of
the MSAs, such as New York. In these CMSAs, we replaced metropolitan-
wide earnings with county-specific earnings. We believe this change is
appropriate because costs are, in fact, higher in central city areas
(for example, Manhattan and San Francisco) than in the rest of the
CMSA. County earnings better account for cost variation within these
large metropolitan areas.
b. Practice Expense Geographic Practice Cost Indices.
(1) Employee Wage Indices.
Data from the 20-percent sample of census data of median hourly
earnings for the same categories of medical and clerical occupations
used in the 1992 through 1994 practice expense GPCIs were used in the
1995 through 1997 practice expense GPCIs. The 1995 through 1997
practice expense GPCIs used 1990 rather than 1980 census data. As with
the work GPCIs, county level data were used for CMSAs to better reflect
the cost variations within these large metropolitan areas.
(2) Rent Indices.
As with the original rent indices, the HUD fair market rental (FMR)
data for residential rents were again used as the proxy for physician
office rents. The 1995 through 1997 practice expense GPCIs reflect 1994
HUD FMRs. Like the work GPCI and the employee wage index of the
practice expense GPCIs, county level data were used in CMSAs to
recognize the variations within the CMSA.
The major criticism of the rent indices is that residential rather
than commercial rent data were used. As mentioned earlier, for
constructing the GPCIs we needed data that were widely and consistently
available across all physician fee schedule areas. As with the original
GPCIs, we again searched for private sources of commercial rent data
that were widely and consistently available.
The private sources we found were not adequate. None of the sources
collected data for nonmetropolitan areas, nor did any collect data for
all metropolitan areas. The sources did not reflect the average
commercial space in the area, but rather the particular type of space
most relevant to the needs of a particular source's clients. In
addition, the sample sizes were small. A comparison of the average
rental for any particular city showed significant variation depending
upon the source. Also, the private commercial rent data tended to be
for very high priced real estate of the type likely to be used by large
institutions such as banks, insurance companies, or financial firms and
not for the type of office space used by physicians.
Among the sources of commercial rent data available, the most
promising were data from the Building Owners and Managers Association,
the General Services Administration, and the U. S. Postal Service.
These data were analyzed in depth. We did not use data from the
Building Owners and Managers Association and the General Services
Administration because of poor geographic coverage, especially outside
of large metropolitan areas. That is, data were not widely and
consistently available for all physician fee schedule areas. The U. S.
Postal Service data had much better geographic coverage, but sample
sizes in many areas were unacceptably small and could lead to erroneous
results.
No acceptable national commercial rent data are readily available
for physician office rents. Thus, some proxy must be used for this
portion of the index. In addition, commercial rent data are not
available for all areas from published statistical sources. We believe
that the HUD FMR data remain the best available data for constructing
the office rental index. They are available for all areas, are updated
on an annual basis, and are consistent among areas and from year to
year. Moreover, physicians frequently locate in areas and office space
that are residential rather than commercial, for example, in apartment
complexes and small strip commercial centers adjacent to residential
areas. Residential rents may, in fact, be a better measure of the
differences among areas in the physician office market than a general
commercial rental index.
(3) Medical Equipment, Supplies, and Miscellaneous Expenses.
As mentioned earlier, the GPCI assumes that this component has a
national market and that input prices do not vary among geographic
areas. We were unable to find any data sources that demonstrated price
differences by geographic area. Anecdotal and interview data with
suppliers and manufacturers were inconclusive. While some price
differences may exist, they are more likely to be based on volume
discounts rather than on geographic areas. Generally, it appears that
manufacturers' prices do not vary among areas except for shipping
costs. Since manufacturers and suppliers are located all over the
country, shipping costs on the mainland do not vary significantly.
We did consider an add-on for shipping costs to Alaska, Hawaii, and
Puerto Rico to recognize the added shipping distance. We decided
against the add-on because there were no data to indicate how much the
costs of shipping medical equipment and supplies to these areas
increased their costs. We were able to ascertain that commercial
shippers like United Parcel Service and Federal Express generally
charge about 10 percent more to ship to Puerto Rico, and about 20
percent more to ship to Alaska and Hawaii from the mainland. Medical
equipment and supplies represent about 7 percent of physician practice
costs. Even assuming that shipping costs represent 5 percent of total
equipment and supply costs, which we believe to be a high estimate,
recognizing a 20 percent increase in shipping costs would only increase
payment levels by 0.07 percent or 0.0007 (.20 x .05 x .07 = .0007).
The medical equipment, supplies, and miscellaneous expense index for
all areas continues to be 1.000 in the revised 1995 through 1997 GPCIs.
c. Malpractice Geographic Practice Cost Indices.
Again, malpractice premium data for a $1 million to $3 million
mature ``claims made'' policy were collected, with mandatory patient
compensation funds considered. However, more recent and more
comprehensive malpractice insurance data were used in calculating the
1995 through 1997 malpractice GPCIs. The 1995 through 1997 malpractice
GPCIs were based on 1990 through 1992 premium data. Malpractice
premiums are very volatile and may change significantly from year to
year. We decided to use the most recent 3-year average available rather
than just the most recent single year to smooth out this volatility and
present a more accurate indication of malpractice premium trends over
time.
We collected data on more specialties and from more insurers. We
collected data on 20 specialties, rather than on only 3 as in the 1992
through 1994 malpractice GPCIs. The 1992 through 1994 malpractice GPCI
data were largely drawn from a single nationwide insurer (St. Paul Fire
and Marine) and were supplemented by several State-specific carriers in
States in which St. Paul did not offer coverage. Subsequent analyses
suggest that these data may not be
[[Page 33175]]
representative of insurers operating in many States. For the revised
malpractice GPCI, data were collected from insurers that, on average,
represented 82 percent of the market in each State, with the lowest
State market share being 60 percent. We believe that the more recent
and much more comprehensive data greatly improved the accuracy of the
malpractice GPCIs for 1995 through 1997.
Detailed discussions of the methodology and data sources of the
1995 through 1997 GPCIs can be obtained by requesting the following
studies from NTIS by calling 1-800-553-NTIS, or (703) 487-4650 in

4. Proposed Revised 1998 Through 2000 Geographic Practice Cost Indices
The same data sources and methodology used for the 1995 through
1997 GPCIs were used for the proposed 1998 through 2000 GPCIs
(hereafter referred to as proposed GPCIs) with a few very minor
modifications. No acceptable additional data sources were found. The
cost shares are the same as in the 1995 through 1997 GPCIs because no
changes were made in the MEI weights. Indices for fee schedule areas
are based on the indices for the individual counties within the fee
schedule area. Fee schedule RVUs are again used to weight the county
indices (to reflect volumes of services within counties) when mapping
to fee schedule areas and in constructing the national average indices.
However, we used more recent data, 1994 rather than 1992 RVUs, in the
county, locality, and national mapping in the proposed GPCIs. The
payment effect of this is negligible in most cases and generally
results in changes at the third decimal point if at all.
a. Work Geographic Practice Cost Indices.
The work GPCIs are based on the decennial census. The 1992 through
1994 work GPCIs were based on 1980 census data, because 1990 census
data were not yet available. The work GPCIs were revised in 1995 with
new data from the 1990 census. New census data will not be available
again until after the 2000 census. We searched for other data that
would enable us to update the work GPCIs between the decennial census.
No acceptable data sources were found. The most promising sources of
data were the hospital wage data collected by HCFA to calculate the
Prospective Payment System (PPS) hospital wage index, and the payroll
per worker data collected by the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics from
State unemployment insurance agencies (``the ES-202 data'').
The PPS hospital wage data were examined when we constructed the
original GPCIs. They were rejected in favor of census data because of
their lack of an occupation mix adjustment and their unrepresentative
occupational composition (hospital employees rather than professionals
or physician office employees). ES-202 data consist of total payroll
divided by counts of wage and salary workers. Their major disadvantages
are that they do not measure hourly earnings, only payroll per
employee, and no occupational detail is available. Also, they do not
adjust for part-time or full-time and hours worked, and the numbers of
workers are small for certain States leading to unstable estimates of
payroll per worker. We compared the changes by State from 1989 to 1993
in the PPS wage data and the ES-202 data to see if there was any
correlation between the two series. The correlation between the two was
only moderate, 0.55. The changes indicated by both series were
generally small, for example, a few percentage points. The difference
between the two series by State was in many cases as large as or
greater than the change indicated by either series. The average
difference between the two series (2.1 percent) is as large as the
change indicated by either series. In addition, changes for particular
States were substantially different between the two series. For
example, Indiana relative wages rose by 1.9 percent according to the
PPS data, but fell 5.7 percent according to the ES-202 data.
Since we were unable to find an acceptable data source for updating
the work GPCIs, we examined the consequences of not updating the work
GPCIs between the decennial census. We compared the changes between the
1992 through 1994 work GPCIs, based on the 1980 census, and the 1995
through 1997 GPCIs, based on the 1990 census. On average, the full
variation State work GPCIs changed by about 5 percent. This translates
to about a 1.2 percent change in the quarter work GPCI required by law.
Since work makes up about one-half of the GPCI cost shares, this
translates into an average payment change per State of about 0.6
percent from updating the work GPCI based on the 10-year change in
relative wages indicated by the census data. Even the maximum change in
the full variation State work GPCIs from the 1992 through 1994 to the
1995 through 1997 GPCIs of 14 percent translates into only about a 1.8
percent change in payments. The largest full work GPCI changes for
individual payment areas were from 16 to 20 percent, or about a 4 to 5
percent change in the quarter work GPCI, or about a 2.4 percent change
in payments. However, 80 percent of payment areas experienced payment
changes of less than 1 percent, and 50 percent of payment localities
experienced payment changes of less than 0.5 percent as a result of
changes in the census data from 1980 to 1990.
We are, therefore, proposing no changes in the work GPCIs, other
than the generally negligible changes resulting from using 1994, rather
than 1992, RVUs for this GPCI update because we were unable to find
acceptable data for use between the decennial census. We believe no
changes are preferable to inaccurate changes based on unacceptable
data. We believe that this is a reasonable position given the generally
small magnitude of the changes in payments resulting from the changes
in the work GPCIs from the 1980 to the 1990 census data.
b. Practice Expense Geographic Practice Cost Indices.
(1) Employee Wage Indices.
As with the work GPCIs, the employee wage portion of the practice
expense GPCIs is based on decennial census data. For the same reasons
discussed above pertaining to the work GPCIs, we are proposing no
changes in the employee wage indices during this GPCI update. The
average change from the 1992 through 1994 to 1995 through 1997 employee
wage indices across States was about 6 percent. Since the employee wage
index has a weight of about 16 percent in the GPCI cost shares, this
translates into a 1 percent average change in payments. The maximum
payment change in any payment area resulting from changes from the 1992
through 1994 to 1995 through 1997 employee wage indices was about 3.2
percent. Payment changes in over two-thirds of the payment areas were
less than 1 percent.
(2) Rent Indices.
The office rental indices are again based on HUD residential rent
data. The proposed rental indices are based on
[[Page 33176]]
1996 HUD data as opposed to 1994 HUD data in the 1995 through 1997
GPCIs. HUD made two small methodological changes in developing the
data. First, HUD is using the 40th percentile of area rents rather than
the 45th percentile. This does not materially affect the GPCIs, which
measure relative rents among areas. Second, HUD has established a
rental floor for rural counties at the statewide rural average. This
has the effect of raising the office rental indices slightly in rural
areas.
We made one methodological change in the rent indices. HUD
publishes FMRs only for metropolitan areas as a whole. For the 1995
through 1997 GPCIs, HUD used a special tabulation of the 1990 census
data to allocate rents by county within CMSAs. In some metropolitan
areas, this had the effect of reducing the central city index below the
suburban index, probably because of lower unmeasured housing quality in
central cities than in suburbs. This is probably not an appropriate
indicator of relative physician rents, since the GPCIs are intended to
measure rental costs for offices of similar quality in different areas.
The metropolitan-wide rent is most appropriate for measuring the cost
of space of an average quality across the metropolitan area, which is
why HUD publishes only metropolitan-wide FMRs. Also, the census county
adjustments can be updated only once every 10 years. For this reason,
we believe that the county-specific adjustment should not be made for
all large metropolitan areas but should be retained only for the New
York City Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area. Available evidence
suggests that rents vary substantially among the boroughs of New York
City and that, given the current locality configuration, the county-
specific rental adjustment appropriately reflects these patterns in the
New York City area, especially the higher rents in Manhattan.
The proposed rental indices are compared to the current rental
indices in Addendum D. A reduction in an area's rent index does not
necessarily mean that rents have gone down in that area since the last
GPCI update. Since the GPCIs measure area costs compared to the
national average, a decrease in an area's rent index means that that
area's rental costs have decreased when compared to the change in
national average rental costs. The indices are arranged in descending
order of change. The rental index has a cost share of about 10 percent
of the GPCI. This means that the actual effect on payments will be
about 10 percent of the change in the rental indices. As Addendum D
shows, the largest payment change will be about 2 percent in the Virgin
Islands. The payment change in 86 of the 89 payment areas will be less
than 1 percent.
(3) Medical Equipment, Supplies, and Miscellaneous Expenses.
As with the 1992 through 1994 and 1995 through 1997 GPCIs, this
component is given a national value of 1.000, indicating no measurable
difference among areas in costs.
c. Malpractice Geographic Practice Cost Indices.
Again, malpractice premium data were collected for a mature
``claims made'' policy with $1 million to $3 million limits of
coverage, with adjustments made for mandatory patient compensation
funds. As with the 1995 through 1997 GPCIs, data were collected for the
20 largest Medicare-billing physician specialties. The premium data
represent at least 50 percent of the market in each State. Again, we
used an average of the 3 most recent premium years to smooth out the
considerable year-to-year fluctuations that can occur in malpractice
premiums. The proposed malpractice indices are based on 1992 through
1994 premium data, the latest years available when this study was being
conducted in 1995 through 1996, compared to the 1990 through 1992 data
used in the current 1995 through 1997 indices. Another change from the
1995 through 1997 indices is that the specialty shares of the 20
specialties is weighted by fee schedule RVUs rather than allowed
charges.
Addendum E shows the changes from the 1995 through 1997 indices to
the proposed malpractice GPCIs. A change in an area's malpractice GPCI
does not mean that absolute malpractice premiums have changed by that
amount. It rather reflects the area's new position compared to the
national average. The overwhelming portion of the changes, over 98
percent in most cases, is attributable to the use of more recent data
rather than the change from allowed charges to RVU weights. As with the
1995 through 1997 GPCI revision, the changes in the malpractice GPCIs
are relatively large in some cases reflecting the significant changes
in malpractice premiums that occur from year to year. As Addendum E
shows, a few fee schedule areas show malpractice GPCI changes of about
30 percent. Two-thirds of the payment areas experience changes of less
than 10 percent. It should be remembered, however, that the weight of
the malpractice GPCI is only about 5 percent of the total GPCI.
Therefore, a 10 percent change in the malpractice GPCI translates into
only a 0.5 percent change in payments. Even the largest 30 percent
change in the malpractice GPCI translates into only a 1.5 percent
change in payments. The mean change in the malpractice GPCIs is 8.7
percent, or about a 0.4 percent change in payments.

C. Fee Schedule For Clinical Psychologist Services
1. Background
Until 1997, the fee schedule for clinical psychologist services was
a locality-based fee schedule developed by the individual Medicare
carriers. The Medicare carriers established the locality-based fee
schedule in 1988 after section 4077(b) of the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1987 (OBRA 1987) (Public Law 100-203), enacted on
December 22, 1987, first provided for direct payment for clinical
psychologist services furnished in a community mental health center.
Section 4077(b)(3)(D) of OBRA 1987 amended section 1833(a)(1) of the
Act by providing that payment for clinical psychologist services be
based at 80 percent of the lower of the actual charge or a fee
schedule.
The Act provides that the Secretary determine the fee schedule. As
a result, we furnished guidance to all Medicare Part B carriers to
establish the initial, that is, baseline, clinical psychologist fee
schedule as follows:
Set the fee schedule for therapeutic services at 80
percent of the adjusted prevailing charge for participating
psychiatrists in a locality; and
Set the fee schedule for diagnostic services at 90 percent
of the adjusted prevailing charge for participating psychologists in a
locality.
We also advised the Medicare Part B carriers to update the clinical
psychologist fee schedule in subsequent years by the annual change in
the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U). We adopted
the CPI-U to update the clinical psychologist fee schedule because it
was the economic index used for updating most other nonphysician
practitioner charges at that time.
Since that time, there have been two significant changes to the fee
schedule for clinical psychologist services. First, effective January
1, 1992, we implemented the policy to base payment for psychological
testing
[[Page 33177]]
services furnished by clinical psychologists at the amounts in the
physician fee schedule. Second, effective January 1, 1997, we linked
the fee schedule for clinical psychologist services to the physician
fee schedule in the same manner as most other health care practitioner
services. We describe these changes in more detail in the sections that
follow.
2. Legislative Changes
Although section 4077(b) of OBRA 1987 provided for clinical
psychologist services as separately payable under Medicare Part B under
a fee schedule, direct payment was limited to services furnished in
community mental health centers. Subsequent amendments to the law
expanded the scope of the benefit. These amendments were discussed in a
related Federal Register document described in section II.C.4. below.
3. Physician Payment Reform
As noted in section I.A., since January 1, 1992, Medicare Part B
has paid for physician services based on a fee schedule. Until 1992,
physician services had been paid on the basis of a reasonable charge
system. This system led to significant payment variations among types
of services, physician specialties, and localities. Section 6102 of
OBRA 1989 added a new section 1848 to the Act, ``Payment for
Physicians' Services,'' which replaced the reasonable charge system
with a fee schedule that reflected the resources required to perform a
given service. Although this legislation linked the payment methodology
for most practitioner services to the physician fee schedule, it did
not address payment for clinical psychologist services. Nevertheless,
because amounts established under the physician fee schedule for
psychological testing were heavily based on combined charge data for
psychiatrists and psychologists, we wished to ensure that clinical
psychologists would receive 100 percent of the physician fee schedule
amount for those services. Therefore, effective January 1, 1992, fee
schedule amounts for psychological testing services furnished by
clinical psychologists are set at 100 percent of the physician fee
schedule. However, before 1997, no change was made to the clinical
psychologist fee schedule for therapeutic and other diagnostic
services.
4. Related Federal Register Document
We discussed several aspects of payment for clinical psychologist
services in a proposed rule published in the Federal Register on
December 29, 1993 (Medicare Coverage and Payment for Clinical
Psychologist, Other Psychologist, and Clinical Social Worker Services
(BPD-706-P)) (58 FR 68829). That document addressed issues such as
coinsurance, the outpatient mental health treatment limitation in
section 1833(c) of the Act, and assignment of claims. We are currently
considering public comments that we received in response to that
proposed rule and, in the final rule, we will address those comments.
In the December 1993 proposed rule, we indicated that we would address
the calculation of the clinical psychologist fee schedule amounts set
forth under section 1833(a)(1)(L) of the Act in a separate proposed
rule (58 FR 68837). Below, we are proposing to establish the fee
schedule for clinical psychologist services as referred to in the
December 1993 proposed rule.
5. Policy Pertaining to Clinical Psychologist Services
There are two types of services billed directly to Medicare Part B
by clinical psychologists: diagnostic services and therapeutic
services. Medicare direct payment for services furnished by clinical
psychologists became effective July 1, 1988. From 1988 through 1996,
Medicare Part B payment to clinical psychologists for therapeutic
services was subject to a locality-based fee schedule calculated by
each Medicare carrier. In 1988, the Medicare carriers developed the
clinical psychologist fee schedule on the basis of a HCFA analysis of
charging practices of psychologists and psychiatrists. Because no
Medicare charge data for therapeutic services furnished by clinical
psychologists existed at that time, we compared psychologist and
psychiatrist charges from other payor sources as a gap-filling measure
for Medicare pricing purposes. The resulting clinical psychologist fee
schedule amounts for therapeutic services, as shown in section II.C.1.
above, were set at 80 percent of the adjusted prevailing charge for
similar services of Medicare-participating psychiatrists in the
locality. (The ``adjusted prevailing charge'' for physicians means the
locality prevailing charge that is calculated by applying the MEI to
the base year prevailing charge. In this way, Medicare reasonable
charges for physician services are increased above the base year rates
only to the extent determined to be justified by appropriate economic
data.)
Initially, the fee schedule amounts for diagnostic services
furnished by clinical psychologists were set at 90 percent of the
Medicare prevailing charge for independently practicing psychologists
in a locality. In contrast to therapeutic services, Medicare charge
data had existed for diagnostic testing because psychological testing
furnished by independent psychologists under a physician's order had
been covered as ``other diagnostic tests'' under section 1861(s)(3) of
the Act.
The amounts established under the physician fee schedule for
diagnostic psychological testing were largely based on blended charge
data for both psychologists and physicians. Furthermore, because
psychologists are the predominant suppliers of psychological testing
services, the physician fee schedule amounts for those services were
based in large part on psychologist charge data. In the November 25,
1991 final rule that established the physician fee schedule, we stated
(56 FR 59507) that diagnostic tests furnished by clinical psychologists
would be paid under the physician fee schedule. Since January 1, 1992,
amounts for diagnostic psychological testing services furnished by
psychologists are equivalent to the amounts established under the
physician fee schedule authorized by section 1848 of the Act.
(Diagnostic psychological testing services are listed in the CPT '97 as
CPT codes 96100 through 96117.)
A variety of health care practitioners under Medicare have payment
levels that are tied, by law, to the physician fee schedule. These
practitioners include nurse practitioners, nurse midwives, and
physician assistants. We believe that it is also appropriate to
establish a clinical psychologist fee schedule that is linked to the
physician fee schedule. The implementation of 24 new billing codes for
psychotherapy services effective January 1, 1997 required us to
establish relative values under the physician fee schedule for each
code. Since we were required to establish relative values for each new
code, we established the clinical psychologist fee schedule value for
all services at 100 percent of the physician fee schedule amount for
the corresponding service. Consequently, this rule sets forth in
regulation the fee schedule for covered clinical psychologist services
at 100 percent of the physician fee schedule amount for the
corresponding service. The rationale for this payment level appears in
section II.C.6. below. Although this payment policy was implemented
January 1, 1997, we are including it in this proposed rule in order to
codify in regulations the methodology for the clinical psychologist fee
schedule.
[[Page 33178]]
6. Rationale and Alternatives Considered
As noted in section II.C.1., we recommended in 1988 that Medicare
carriers set clinical psychologist fee schedule amounts for therapeutic
services at 80 percent of the MEI-adjusted prevailing charge for
psychiatrists. That level had been primarily based on the fee
differential found in a review of psychologist and psychiatrist fees
from 1985 through 1988.
Effective January 1, 1992, physicians' services are paid under a
resource-based fee schedule rather than a reasonable charge
methodology. The physician fee schedule establishes payment amounts for
all physician services as defined in section 1848(j)(3) of the Act. One
effect of the physician fee schedule is that payment for physician
services is now standardized. We believe that the clinical psychologist
fee schedule amounts for therapeutic services should be tied to the
physician fee schedule as are the services of most other health care
practitioners.
As noted earlier, effective for services furnished on or after
January 1, 1992, payment for diagnostic psychological tests furnished
by clinical psychologists is based on the physician fee schedule. The
clinical psychologist fee schedule for therapeutic services, which was
in use until January 1, 1997, was derived from the initial linkage
between psychologist and psychiatrist prevailing charges. However, with
the implementation of the physician fee schedule, prevailing charges no
longer apply for physician services. Furthermore, because the
prevailing charge was based on actual charging patterns, it frequently
resulted in unjustifiably large differences in charges from one area to
another. With implementation of the physician fee schedule, the GAF
used to adjust the RVUs for physician services has changed the
geographic distribution of fees. The purpose of the GAF is to recognize
only justifiable differences in the cost of operating a medical
practice in different areas.
Finally, once the clinical psychologist fee schedule is linked
directly to the physician fee schedule, the annual economic index used
to update fees for clinical psychologist services will be the same as
the index used to update fees for physicians and other health care
practitioners. The following table illustrates that, for the years
between 1989 through 1991 (during which the prevailing charge system
applied), the CPI-U update factor exceeded the congressionally imposed
limits on the MEI that was used to adjust Medicare prevailing charges
for nonprimary care physician services:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1989 1990 1991
Annual Increase (percent) (percent) (percent)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CPI-U........................................................... 4.0 5.2 4.7
MEI (for other than primary care)............................... 1.0 2.0 0.0
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using a hypothetical prevailing charge of $100 for psychiatrists in
1988, we illustrate the relationship of the clinical psychologist fee
schedule to psychiatrist prevailing charges in 1991 in the following
table:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1989 1990 1991
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Psychiatrists (1988 prevailing
charge = $100):
MEI update factor............ 1.01 1.02 1.00
Updated prevailing charge.... $101.01 $103.02 $103.02
Clinical Psychologists (1988 fee
= $80):
CPI-U update factor.......... 1.04 1.052 1.047
Updated fee.................. $83.20 $87.53 $91.64
Psychologist/Psychiatrist (1988 =
80%)............................ 82.4% 85.0% 89.0%
------------------------------------------------------------------------
By 1991, the combined effect of using the CPI-U to update the
clinical psychologist fee schedule and the MEI to update psychiatrist
prevailing charges resulted in a clinical psychologist fee schedule
that was equivalent to 89 percent of the psychiatrist prevailing
charge. Additionally, implementation of the physician fee schedule
resulted in slight payment decreases for psychiatrist services in 1992.
In 1993 and 1994, moreover, the physician fee schedule amounts for
nonsurgical services other than primary care services were increased by
0.8 percent and 5.3 percent, respectively. By comparison, during the
first 3 years that the physician fee schedule was in effect, clinical
psychologist fee schedule amounts increased by 4.7 percent, 3.1
percent, and 3.0 percent, respectively, for 1992, 1993, and 1994,
because clinical psychologist fee schedule amounts were adjusted by a
different economic index, the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Consequently,
through 1994, clinical psychologist fee schedule increases outpaced
those for physicians furnishing nonsurgical services other than primary
care as well as those for other nonphysician practitioners whose
payments are tied to the physician fee schedule.
The combined effect of all these factors is that the clinical
psychologist fee schedule no longer reflected the original fee
differentials between psychologists and psychiatrists that had been
found in the health care marketplace and factored into the initial
clinical psychologist fee schedule. As a result, the clinical
psychologist fee schedule was marked by disparities with the physician
fee schedule for similar services as well as by wide geographic
variations that reflected historical charging patterns in different
areas.
We had previously considered setting the clinical psychologist fee
schedule at the level established under the physician fee schedule for
similar services. However, at that time, the CPT descriptors for
individual psychotherapy services (CPT codes 90841 through 90844)
included the term ``* * *[with] continuing medical diagnostic
evaluation, and drug management, when indicated.'' These are medical
aspects of a psychotherapeutic service that are outside the scope of
clinical psychologist licensure. Therefore, we were concerned that it
would be inappropriate to set the clinical psychologist fee schedule
amounts at the same level as the physician fee schedule when clinical
psychologists
[[Page 33179]]
were unable to perform the full service described in the codes.
During 1996, as part of the statutorily mandated 5-year refinement
of the RVUs for the physician fee schedule, the RUC recommended
increases for a number of psychotherapy codes. (The RUC, which is
comprised of representatives of various medical specialty societies,
the AMA, the American Osteopathic Association, and the CPT Editorial
Panel, makes recommendations to us concerning the assignment of RVUs to
new and revised CPT codes.) As a prelude to accepting the RUC
recommendations, we examined the coding of psychiatry services. We
concluded that the CPT code descriptors for individual psychotherapy
needed to be changed to define the service more clearly, recognize the
variations in work associated with different types of psychotherapy as
well as the settings in which the types of psychotherapy are furnished,
and assign face-to-face time values for the service. As a result,
effective January 1, 1997, CPT codes 90842, 90843, 90844, and 90855 for
individual psychotherapy are no longer recognized for Medicare
purposes. These codes have been replaced by 24 alphanumeric codes that
include 12 codes for therapy furnished in the office and other
outpatient settings and 12 codes for therapy furnished in inpatient
hospital, partial hospital, or residential care settings. These two
categories were further broken down into the types of psychotherapy
services. A full listing and discussion of these codes was included in
the final rule (Medicare Program; Revisions to Payment Policies and
Five-Year Review of and Adjustments to the Relative Value Units Under
the Physician Fee Schedule for Calendar Year 1997 (BPD-852-FC)),
published November 22, 1996. (See 61 FR 59521 through 59523.)
One of the effects of the coding system changes for psychiatric
services is that now there are codes for reporting psychotherapy both
with and without medical evaluation and management services. Under
Medicare, clinical psychologists may bill for individual psychotherapy
without medical evaluation and management services. Consequently, when
clinical psychologists bill for individual psychotherapy without
medical evaluation and management, those services are equivalent to
individual psychotherapy without medical evaluation and management
services when furnished by a physician. As a result, we believe that it
is both reasonable and equitable to pay clinical psychologists the same
amount as physicians for equivalent services.
Alternatively, we considered retaining the previous clinical
psychologist fee schedule for therapeutic services. We also considered
setting the clinical psychologist fee schedule at a level other than
100 percent of the physician fee schedule. However, we rejected these
options because the resulting fee schedule amounts would have
essentially continued to be derived from physician prevailing charges,
which are no longer relevant under the physician fee schedule and would
only serve to perpetuate geographic variations in charges that are a
residual effect of the reasonable charge payment system.
D. Diagnostic Tests
1. Ordering of Diagnostic Tests
In our November 22, 1996 final rule for the 1997 physician fee
schedule (61 FR 59490), we revised Sec. 410.32 (Diagnostic x-ray tests,
diagnostic laboratory tests, and other diagnostic tests: Conditions) to
state that, to be covered, diagnostic tests had to be ordered by the
physician who treats the patient. Section 410.32 contained exceptions
for x-rays used by chiropractors to demonstrate the subluxation of the
spine and for certain nonphysician practitioners operating within the
scope of their statutory benefit and State licenses. We are proposing
to add an additional exception to Sec. 410.32 to indicate that a
physician who meets the qualification requirements for an interpreting
physician under section 354 of the Public Health Service Act as
provided in Sec. 410.34 (Mammography services: Conditions for and
limitations on coverage), paragraph (a)(7), may order a diagnostic
mammogram based on the findings of a screening mammogram even though
the physician does not treat the beneficiary. We believe this is
appropriate because the Food and Drug Administration, rather than HCFA,
is responsible for the conditions under which mammograms are covered.
It would also facilitate additional, necessary testing to investigate
suspicious findings at the time the beneficiary is present at the
testing site rather than requiring the beneficiary to return at a later
date for follow-up testing.
In addition, questions have been raised as to the statutory basis
for denial of claims under the ordering rule adopted in the 1996
physician fee schedule final rule. We have determined that tests are
not demonstrably reasonable and medically necessary unless they are
ordered by the patient's physician who will employ the tests to manage
the patient's care. Thus, we are proposing to clarify in Sec. 410.32(a)
that the denials are based on the exclusion in section 1862(a)(1)(A) of
the Act, and contained in Sec. 411.15(k)(1), that is, the services
``are not reasonable and necessary for the diagnosis and treatment of
illness or injury or to improve the functioning of a malformed body
member.'' Beneficiaries may be protected from liability for claims
denied on this basis by the limitation on liability provision of
section 1879 of the Act.
2. Supervision of Diagnostic Tests
We are proposing to clarify in Sec. 410.32 the policy on physician
supervision of diagnostic x-ray and other diagnostic tests that are
payable under the physician fee schedule. (Diagnostic procedures may be
split into professional components (PCS) and technical components (TCs)
or be TC-only.) The clarification is applicable to the TCs of
diagnostic procedures covered under section 1861(s)(3) of the Act
(whether billed separately to the carrier or as part of a ``global''
charge with the PC) that are furnished in settings in which the Part B
carrier pays for the TCs under the physician fee schedule. The coverage
of diagnostic procedures furnished to hospital patients is addressed in
other regulations and is not affected by this clarification. In
addition, diagnostic laboratory tests as described in paragraph (d) of
Sec. 410.32 are not affected by this proposed clarification. This
proposed rule represents our judgment that diagnostic procedures are
safe and effective only when they are furnished with appropriate
physician supervision. Therefore, denials of claims for failure to meet
the required level of physician supervision would be based on the
exclusion in section 1862(a)(1)(A) of the Act and in Sec. 411.15(k)(1),
that is, they ``are not reasonable and necessary for the diagnosis and
treatment of illness or injury or to improve the functioning of a
malformed body member.'' This means that the beneficiary may be
protected under the limitation on liability provisions in section 1879
of the Act.
We believe that the requirements of Sec. 410.32 should be revised
because except for the reference to ``other diagnostic tests'' in the
heading of Sec. 410.32, x-rays are the only diagnostic tests payable
under the physician fee schedule that are discussed in the current
Sec. 410.32. We are proposing to clarify that some degree of physician
supervision is required for every
[[Page 33180]]
diagnostic test payable under the physician fee schedule with a few
exceptions.
Our specific proposals for revisions to the regulations are:
The definition and discussion of the term ``general
supervision'' currently appears only in Sec. 410.32(a)(2) (concerning
portable x-ray services). We are proposing to clarify that this level
of supervision is the minimal level required for all diagnostic tests
payable under the physician fee schedule unless specific exception is
made by regulation.
The definition and discussion of the term ``direct
supervision'' is set forth in revised Sec. 410.32(b)(3)(ii), concerning
diagnostic x-ray and other diagnostic tests. We are proposing to
clarify that this level of supervision is required for some types of
diagnostic procedures that are not x-rays.
We are proposing to incorporate into regulations at
Sec. 410.32(b)(3)(iii) the existing policy that there are some
diagnostic procedures that require a physician's presence with the
patient at the time of performance of the procedure for the procedure
to be covered.
We are proposing a general rule that diagnostic tests payable under
the physician fee schedule require at least general supervision (and in
some cases either direct or personal supervision, as defined in this
proposal) by a physician (as defined in section 1861(r) of the Act).
Because of the restricted definitions in section 1861(r), we believe
that nearly all tests will be supervised by doctors of medicine or
osteopathy, or, in the case of procedures related to the eyes and
consistent with State licensure, doctors of optometry. We do not
perceive a significant impact on doctors of dentistry and chiropractic
in this regard since Medicare covers limited services for these
specialties and we believe diagnostic test supervision will not be an
issue for these specialties.
We are proposing to exclude three types of diagnostic tests from
the physician supervision requirements:
Diagnostic mammography procedures, which are regulated by
the Food and Drug Administration.
Diagnostic tests personally furnished by a ``qualified
audiologist'' as defined in section 1861(ll)(3) of the Act. These
include ``audiology services'' as defined in section 1861(ll)(2) of the
Act that are payable by Medicare carriers under the physician fee
schedule. We are excluding these diagnostic tests from the physician
supervision requirement because the Congress has defined these services
without requiring physician supervision of their performance.
Diagnostic psychological testing services personally
performed by a qualified psychologist practicing independently of an
institution, agency, or physician's office as currently defined in
section 2070.2 of the Medicare Carriers Manual (HCFA Pub. 14-3). These
services are distinguished from services of clinical psychologists,
which are covered under section 1861(ii) of the Act, rather than
section 1861(s)(3). We are excluding these tests from the physician
supervision requirement because we do not believe that these services
require physician supervision of their performance.
We are proposing that the minimal level of physician supervision,
which is applicable to all diagnostic procedures payable under the
physician fee schedule, with the exceptions cited above, is general
supervision. ``General supervision'' means the procedure is furnished
under the physician's overall direction and control, but physician
presence is not required during the performance of the procedure. Under
general supervision, the training of the nonphysician personnel who
actually perform the diagnostic procedure and the maintenance of the
necessary equipment and supplies are the continuing responsibility of
the physician. Examples of procedures requiring only general physician
supervision include the following:
Plain films (x-rays) involving the extremities, pelvis,
vertebral column, or skull.
Plain films of the chest and abdomen that do not involve
the use of contrast media.
Electrocardiograms except when the code description
specifies physician supervision such as with a cardiovascular stress
test.
Ultrasound diagnostic procedures except when the code
description specifies a physician's service such as the placement of a
probe in the case of transesophageal echocardiography.
Electroencephalograms, polysomnography, and sleep studies.
We are proposing that the existing definition of ``direct
supervision'' in Sec. 410.32 be applied to types of services other than
diagnostic x-rays. ``Direct supervision'' in the office setting does
not mean that the physician must be present in the room when the
procedure is performed; however, the physician must be present in the
office suite and immediately available to furnish assistance and
direction throughout the performance of the procedure. We are
specifically requesting comments on this proposal. Examples of
diagnostic procedures requiring both general and direct supervision
include the following:
Magnetic resonance imaging, computerized axial tomography,
and nuclear medicine procedures.
Procedures in which contrast materials are used.
X-rays other than skeletal, abdominal, and chest x-rays
cited in the discussion of ``general supervision.''
We are proposing to define ``personal supervision'' as follows:
``Personal supervision'' means a physician must be in attendance in the
room during the performance of the procedure. Examples of procedures
requiring both general and personal supervision include the following:
Cardiovascular stress tests including those furnished with
nuclear medicine and echocardiography procedures.
Cardiac catheterization.
Radiological supervision and interpretation procedures.
Under the changes made to section 1861(s)(3) of the Act by section
145(b) of Public Law 103-432, the Congress has added diagnostic
mammography as part of the portable x-ray benefit. Therefore, we are
proposing to add diagnostic mammograms (but not screening mammograms)
to the list of services a portable x-ray supplier may furnish in
Sec. 410.32(c). However, the supplier must meet the certification
requirements of section 354 of the Public Health Service Act, as
implemented by 21 CFR part 900, subpart B.
3. Independent Diagnostic Testing Facility
Section 2070.5 of the Medicare Carriers Manual (HCFA Pub. 14-3) is
the current policy basis for the coverage of Independent Physiological
Laboratory (IPL) services. The section does not define the term
``physiological'' and specifically mentions only electrocardiograms and
electroencephalograms as types of services the entity that has come to
be known as an IPL may furnish. The section says little about the
nature of IPLs other than that they operate independently of a
hospital, physician's office, or rural health clinic and meet
applicable State and local licensure laws. Few States regulate
diagnostic services, other than x-rays, and the requirement for State
and local licensure has had little meaning in practice. The other
requirements for the coverage of IPL services are that the services be
ordered by a ``referring'' physician and that the services be
determined by the carrier to be
[[Page 33181]]
reasonable and necessary. The requirement that the diagnostic services
must be ordered by a referring physician has been addressed by the
policy we adopted in the final rule for the 1997 physician fee schedule
published in the Federal Register on November 22, 1996 (61 FR 59497
through 59498), under which the physician who orders a diagnostic
service must be a physician who is treating the patient.
We are proposing to set aside the term ``IPL'' and define a new
entity independent of a hospital or physician's office in which
diagnostic tests are performed by licensed, certified nonphysician
personnel under appropriate physician supervision. We are proposing to
call this entity an Independent Diagnostic Testing Facility (IDTF). We
are proposing that the new entity replace the IPL. The proposal would
provide clarification in the regulations to resolve confusion
surrounding both the structure of entities Medicare previously
classified as IPLs, as well as the services they furnish, and to
address the potential for abuse and quality and safety concerns created
by the lack of Federal and State IPL licensure and certification
requirements. This proposal would not apply to approved portable x-ray
suppliers or to procedures furnished in physicians' offices including
group practices or multispecialty clinics. An IDTF may be a fixed
location, a mobile entity, or an individual nonphysician practitioner.
We are proposing that the following diagnostic tests, which are
payable under the physician fee schedule, are not required to be
furnished in accordance with the IDTF criteria when furnished by a
nonhospital entity:
Diagnostic mammograms the coverage of which is required by
law to be regulated by the Food and Drug Administration rather than by
HCFA.
Diagnostic tests personally furnished by a ``qualified
audiologist'' as defined in section 1861(ll)(3) of the Act. These
include ``audiology services'' as defined in section 1861(ll)(2) of the
Act that are payable by Medicare carriers under the physician fee
schedule. We are excluding these diagnostic tests from the physician
supervision requirement because the Congress has defined these services
without requiring physician supervision of their performance.
Diagnostic psychological testing services personally
furnished by a qualified psychologist practicing independently of an
institution, agency, or physician's office as currently defined in
section 2070.2 of the Medicare Carriers Manual (HCFA Pub. 14-3). The
services are distinguished from services of clinical psychologists,
which are covered under section 1861(ii) of the Act rather than
1861(s)(3). We are excluding these tests from the physician supervision
requirement because we do not believe that these services require
physician supervision of their performance.
We are proposing that IDTFs meet the following requirements:
An IDTF must have one or more supervising physicians who
are responsible for the direct and ongoing oversight of the quality of
the testing performed, the proper operation and calibration of the
equipment used to perform tests, and the qualification of nonphysician
personnel who use the equipment. This level of supervision equates to
general supervision as proposed in this section II.D. and proposed
Sec. 410.32(b)(3)(i).
The supervising physician must evidence proficiency in the
performance and interpretation of each type of diagnostic procedure
performed by the IDTF; however, there is no requirement that the IDTF's
supervising physician actually furnish the interpretation. (For
example, a physician might purchase tests from the IDTF that he or she
will interpret.) Proficiency may be documented by certification in
specific medical specialties or subspecialties or by criteria
established by the carrier for the service area in which the IDTF is
located. In the case of a procedure which would require the direct or
personal supervision of a physician pursuant to II.D. in this section
and proposed Sec. 410.32(b)(3)(ii) and (b)(3)(iii), respectively, the
IDTF's supervising physician must personally furnish this level of
supervision whether the procedure is performed in the IDTF or, in the
case of mobile services, at a remote location. The IDTF must maintain
documentation to demonstrate sufficient physician attendance during all
hours of operations to assure that the required physician supervision
is furnished. In the case of procedures requiring direct supervision,
the supervising physician may oversee concurrent procedures.
Any nonphysician personnel used by the IDTF to perform
tests must demonstrate the basic qualifications to perform the tests in
question and have appropriate training and proficiency as evidenced by
licensure or certification by the appropriate State health or education
department. In the absence of a State licensing board, the technician
must be certified by the appropriate national credentialing body. The
IDTF must maintain available for review documentation that these
requirements are met.
All procedures performed by the IDTF must be specifically
ordered in writing by a physician who treats the beneficiary, that is,
the physician who is furnishing a consultation or treating a
beneficiary for a specific medical problem and who uses the results in
the management of the beneficiary's specific medical problem. This
requirement would be met when a beneficiary's primary care physician
orders testing the results of which may determine whether or not the
physician refers the beneficiary to a specialist. In other words, that
physician is managing the patient's care. The order must specify the
diagnosis or other basis for the testing. The supervising physician for
the IDTF may not order tests performed by the IDTF, and the IDTF may
not add any procedures based on internal protocols without written
order from the treating physician.
An IDTF that operates across State boundaries must
maintain documentation that its supervising physicians and technicians
are licensed and certified in each of the States in which it is
furnishing services.
E. Reasonable Compensation Equivalent Limit Update Factor
1. Background
Section 1887(a)(2)(B) of the Act provided for the reasonable
compensation equivalent limits used to determine the reasonableness of
costs incurred by providers for professional services furnished by
physicians for the benefit of provider patients in a hospital or
skilled nursing facility. Regulations set forth at Sec. 415.70 (Limits
on compensation for physician services in providers), paragraph (b),
concerning the methodology for establishing limits, established a
methodology for determining reasonable annual compensation equivalents,
considering average physician incomes by specialty and type of
location, to the extent possible using the best available data. The
regulations also expanded the application of the reasonable
compensation equivalent limits to include comprehensive outpatient
rehabilitation facilities. The initial and still current methodology
for establishing reasonable compensation equivalent limits is based on
an internal working paper (``A Methodology for Determination of
Reasonable FTE Compensation for Hospital-Based Physicians'' by James R.
Cantwell and William J. Sobaski (Working Paper No. OR-32, revised
December 1982)) developed by HCFA's Office of Research
[[Page 33182]]
and Demonstrations. Copies of this paper are available on request from:
ORD Publications, Office of Research and Demonstrations, Health Care
Financing Administration, Room C3-20-11, 7500 Security Boulevard,
Baltimore, MD 21244, (410) 786-6588. The inflation factor employed in
the methodology used to develop the initial limits and, subsequently,
to update those limits to reflect increases in net physician
compensation was the CPI-U.
2. Proposed Change in the Methodology Used to Develop Reasonable
Compensation Equivalent Limits
The methodology currently employed to update the physician fee
schedule uses an inflation factor distinct from the CPI-U, which is
used to update the reasonable compensation equivalent limits. To
achieve a measure of consistency in the methodologies employed to
determine reasonable payments to physicians for physicians' direct
medical and surgical services furnished to individual patients and
reasonable compensation levels for physicians' services that benefit
provider patients generally, we are proposing a revision in the
methodology used to update the reasonable compensation equivalent
limits that would entail the adoption of the physician fee schedule's
inflation factor (the MEI) to update the reasonable compensation
equivalent limits. For cost reporting periods beginning on or after
January 1, 1998, updates to the reasonable compensation equivalent
limits would be calculated using the MEI.
F. Payment to Participating and Nonparticipating Suppliers
In the November 1991 final rule (56 FR 59625) that implemented
section 1848 of the Act, we included the specific regulations
describing the calculation of payments for physician services. However,
we inadvertently omitted references to the payment calculation for
nonparticipating physicians. (Nonparticipating physicians and suppliers
are those who have not agreed to accept Medicare assignment for all of
the services they provide to Medicare beneficiaries.) The following
technical proposals are being made to correct this oversight and to
conform the regulations to the language in the Act and the program
instructions.
We are proposing to revise Sec. 414.2 (Definitions) to define a
``participating supplier'' as being a supplier under the general
definition of ``supplier'' in Sec. 400.202 (Definitions specific to
Medicare), which includes physicians as suppliers, when they have an
agreement with us to participate in Part B of Medicare in effect on the
date of the service. Similarly, we are proposing to define
``nonparticipating supplier'' as a supplier that does not have an
agreement with us to participate in Part B of Medicare in effect on the
date of the service.
Section 1842(h) of the Act permits suppliers to sign an agreement
with Medicare in which they agree to accept assignment on all claims
for services they furnish to Medicare beneficiaries. In exchange for
this agreement, they receive benefits not available to nonparticipating
suppliers, including, but not limited to, assistance with electronic
billing, inclusion in a directory of participating suppliers, and a
higher fee schedule amount for their services (but only in the case of
physicians' services). Suppliers may sign the agreements before the
beginning of a calendar year and are bound by the agreement for the
year or until they choose to revoke it, effective with the beginning of
a calendar year. Suppliers that sign the agreement are called
``participating suppliers.'' Those that do not sign the agreement or
who revoke their agreement are called ``nonparticipating suppliers.''
We are proposing to revise Sec. 414.20 (Formula for computing
payment amounts) to clarify that the formula computes the fee schedule
amount, which may differ from the payment basis, as discussed below,
and to clarify that the fee schedule amount for a nonparticipating
supplier is 95 percent of the fee schedule amount for a participating
supplier. We are also proposing to revise the heading of Sec. 414.20 to
read, ``Formula for computing fee schedule amounts'' to reflect more
accurately the content of the section.
The fee schedule amount that applies to the service for which
payment is claimed is determined by the participation status of the
supplier who submits the claim. Section 1848(b)(1) of the Act states
that the fee schedule amount is the product of the RVUs for the
service, the GPCI, and the CF, and this formula, as it applies to a
participating supplier, is reflected in proposed Sec. 414.20(a).
However, section 1848(a)(3) of the Act specifies that as an incentive
to participate in Medicare, the fee schedule amount for
nonparticipating suppliers is 95 percent of what the fee schedule
amount would be were the supplier a participating supplier. Therefore,
we are proposing in Sec. 414.20(b) that the fee schedule amount for a
nonparticipating supplier for a physician service is 95 percent of the
fee schedule amount for a participating supplier.
We are proposing to revise Sec. 414.48 (Limits on actual charges of
nonparticipating suppliers) to clarify that the limiting charge is 115
percent of the fee schedule amount for nonparticipating physicians as
calculated in Sec. 414.20(b).
In new Sec. 414.21 (Medicare payment basis), we are proposing to
clarify that Medicare payment is based on the lesser of the
physician's, supplier's, or other person's actual charge or the
applicable Medicare fee schedule or reasonable charge amount. The
Medicare-allowed amount will differ from the fee schedule amount when
the supplier's actual charges for the service are less than the fee
schedule amount applicable to the claim. Moreover, our payment amount
is the applicable percentage of the allowed amount that we pay (for
example, 80 percent in the case of most supplier services).
Specifically, sections 1848(a)(1) and 1834(a)(1)(B) of the Act
require that we base payment on the lesser of the actual charge for the
service or the fee schedule amount. Therefore, when the actual charge
for the service is less than the applicable fee schedule amount, our
payment basis is the actual charge (not the fee schedule amount).
Similarly, when the actual charge is more than the fee schedule amount,
our payment basis is the fee schedule amount.
G. Increase in Work Relative Value Units for Global Surgical Services
to Account for the 1997 Increases for Work Relative Value Units in
Evaluation and Management Services
1. Background
As part of the 5-year review of all physician work RVUs, we
increased most of the work RVUs for evaluation and management services
for hospital and office or other outpatient visits. We revised the work
RVUs for evaluation and management services partly in recognition of
the increase in preservice and postservice work.
In addition to the procedure itself, a global surgical service
includes the related pre- and postoperative evaluation and management
visits a surgeon provides within a defined period of time. In response
to the increases in work RVUs for evaluation and management services,
many surgical specialty societies contended that the decision not to
raise the work RVUs for global surgical services unfairly penalizes
physicians whose clinical activities focus primarily on the performance
of surgical procedures. These surgical specialty societies
[[Page 33183]]
expressed the view that evaluation and management services related to a
procedure have been subjected to the same increasing complexity as
nonprocedural evaluation and management services due to factors such as
reduced inpatient lengths of stay, same day admissions for major
surgery, and increased utilization of home health care programs
requiring far more involved and extensive postservice planning and
management. Furthermore, these societies believed that the amount of
preoperative and postoperative work required in the provision of
evaluation and management services is the same whether it is performed
separately or as part of the global surgical package. Subsequently,
many have encouraged further study of this issue.
As indicated in the discussion of this issue in the November 22,
1996 final rule for the 1997 physician fee schedule (61 FR 59533
through 59534), we stated that we had requested a recommendation from
the RUC on adjusting work RVUs in relation to global surgical services
to be consistent with the 1997 increases in work RVUs for the
evaluation and management services and would subsequently consider an
adjustment in the physician fee schedule.
2. Proposal
Since our request, we have received a recommendation from the RUC
to adjust global surgical fees to be consistent with 1997 increases in
the evaluation and management services. Upon further examination of
this issue, we are proposing to increase global surgical services
payments. We considered the following two options to facilitate this
adjustment:
Conduct a detailed analysis of each global surgical
service. We rejected this option since it is not feasible to complete
in a limited time frame.
Create an across-the-board approach. This is consistent
with the recommendation from the RUC based on an analysis performed by
Daniel Dunn, Ph. D., of Integrated Healthcare Information Services,
Inc., ``Incorporating the 1997 Changes in Work RVUs for E&M Services
into the Work RVUs for Global Surgery: Report to the American Medical
Association/Specialty Society Relative Value Update Committee (RUC),''
February 28, 1997. (Copies of the report may be obtained from the
American Medical Association, Department of Physician Payment Systems,
515 North State Street, Chicago, IL 60610.) Dr. Dunn's analysis
includes data from both the Harvard and the RUC surveys. We believe an
appropriate adjustment for global surgical services can be achieved by
using data from several different sources. We have created a database
that includes the number and level of postoperative hospital and office
visits for a large number of global surgical services. The database
includes the length of stay and postoperative visit count from the
Harvard resource-based relative value scale study and the most recent
estimates from the RUC data, updated, when available, by the CPEPs'
length-of-stay postoperative visit counts. These CPEPs met in 1996 to
assess practice expense components of physician services. We are
increasing global evaluation and management services by the same
percentage that we applied to evaluation and management services in
1996 with the exception that we would increase only the preservice and
postservice of the global surgical service by 12 percent (we used 25
percent for evaluation and management services in 1996) recognizing
that some economies of repetition occur in postoperative visits that
take place over a relatively short time span. We received a
recommendation from the RUC that the 12 percent increase was supported
by all members of the RUC. We agree with the RUC recommendation. This
methodology would effect a systematic increase in total work
accomplished during the global surgical period. Malpractice expense
RVUs are unchanged. All other increases would be the same as for
evaluation and management services. Given our proposed increases, the
RVUs for CPT code 19180 (Mastectomy, simple, complete) would increase
from 8.09 RVUs to 8.80 RVUs, and the RVUs for CPT code 47610
(Cholecystectomy with exploration of common bile duct) would increase
from 15.00 RVUs to 15.83 RVUs.
H. Caloric Vestibular Testing
We are proposing to change the work and malpractice RVUs for CPT
code 92543, caloric vestibular testing. Our current work, practice
expense, and malpractice expense RVUs for that code are established at
a level to reflect the relative resources used to provide or interpret
four irrigations--that is, two irrigations to each ear, one cool and
one warm. According to the article ``Caloric Vestibular Testing,'' CPT
Assistant, Vol. 6, No. 5, May 1996, page 5, physicians usually perform
four irrigations. However, that same article states the AMA's
interpretation that when one unit of CPT code 92543 is billed, that
represents only one irrigation, and that, therefore, when four
irrigations are performed, the physician should bill for four CPT code
92543 services. We have issued contrary instructions to physicians
indicating that when they furnish from one to four irrigations, they
are to bill only one unit of CPT code 92543. We have continued to
receive complaints that our having an interpretation different from
that of the AMA causes confusion for physicians. Therefore, we are
proposing to adopt the AMA's interpretation and reduce the work and
malpractice RVUs for CPT code 92543 global service and CPT code 92543-
26, and the malpractice RVUs for CPT code 92543-TC to 25 percent of
what they would otherwise be. Therefore, beginning in 1998, when a
physician performs and interprets four irrigations, the physician would
bill Medicare for four units of CPT code 92543 (that is, the global
service). When a physician interprets four irrigations, the physician
would bill four units of CPT code 92543-26. When a physician or
supplier performs four irrigations, the physician or supplier would
bill four units of CPT code 92543-TC.
As part of the overall proposal of resource-based practice expense
RVUs for all codes, we would establish practice expense RVUs for CPT
code 92543 global service, -26, and -TC based on the assumption that
one unit of the service equals one irrigation or the interpretation of
one irrigation.
I. Clinical Consultations
1. Background
There are two CPT codes for clinical consultations, CPT codes 80500
(Clinical pathology consultation; limited, without review of patient's
history and medical records) and 80502 (Clinical pathology
consultation; comprehensive, for a complex diagnostic problem, with
review of patient's history and medical records), which were added to
the CPT in 1985. The pathologists reported a scenario in which the
attending physician does not directly request a clinical consultation
but the pathologist nevertheless provides a consultation. According to
the pathologists, there are specific individual laboratory tests that
are ordered by the attending physician, and the pathologist's
consultation is necessary for the tests to have any meaning.
Pathologists contend that physicians in their hospitals do not have the
capability to interpret these test results and, therefore, should
request a clinical consultation. They further argue that it is
inefficient and medically inappropriate to send the test results back
to the attending physician without a consultation and then have
[[Page 33184]]
the attending physician formally request a consultation.
The use of standing orders was designed to streamline the passage
of information from the laboratory physician to the attending physician
and allow the Medicare carrier to pay for the clinical consultation.
Pathologists argue that it is burdensome for them to ask the attending
physician to initiate a formal request for a consultation so that
Medicare will allow payment for the service.
Pathologists state that, between 1984, the date the clinical
consultation policy was initiated, and 1992, the beginning of the
physician fee schedule, the Medicare carriers were not uniformly
applying the clinical consultation policy. Moreover, the pathologists
assert that there were a limited number of clinical laboratory tests
for which a pathologist interpretation was routinely needed and that
these services should be paid outside of the ``clinical consultation''
benefit.
Beginning in 1992, we defined a new service, called a ``clinical
laboratory interpretation service'' and established the criteria for
payment for it. We have identified approximately 20 laboratory codes
for which Medicare carriers could recognize an interpretation by the
pathologist.
It is our view that many of the services that were previously paid
as clinical consultations could now be appropriately paid as clinical
laboratory interpretation services. It is also our view that clinical
consultations should represent those unusual situations in which the
attending physician needs assistance with a combination of laboratory
tests and the attending physician can, therefore, request a
consultation from the laboratory physician.
The Florida carrier has informed us that approximately 10 percent
of that State's hospital pathologists account for 70 percent of the
allowed charges for clinical consultations. Further, it is the
hospitals' and the pathologists' use of standing order policies that
are contributing to the increased utilization of clinical
consultations. Under these standing order policies, a clinical
consultation is routinely generated for a specific clinical laboratory
test, and a consultation report is forwarded to the patient's attending
physician. The attending physician is often unaware that the patient is
being billed for this service.
Until we finalize this more specific policy, we have instructed the
Florida carrier that it may use the general authority with respect to
reasonableness and medical necessity as a basis to deny payments for
unnecessary clinical consultations.
We are, therefore, proposing to eliminate the policy that has been
in effect since 1984 that allows a standing order to be used in place
of an individual request by the attending physician.
2. Proposal
The regulations set forth at Sec. 415.130 (Conditions for payment:
Physician pathology services), paragraph (b) (Clinical consultation
services), require that a clinical consultation meet four criteria
before it can be paid. One of these criteria is that the clinical
consultation must be requested by the patient's attending physician.
Based on a stipulation made by our attorneys in settling a lawsuit with
the College of American Pathologists in 1984, we have allowed a
standing order policy to be used as a substitute for the individual
request by the patient's attending physician. We are proposing that
effective January 1, 1998, we would not accept a standing order as a
substitute for the individual request by the attending physician. We
would instruct the Medicare carriers to enforce Sec. 415.130(b) as it
is presently written.
J. Actual Charges
In Sec. 400.202 (Definitions specific to Medicare), we are
proposing to define the ``actual charge'' to be the lesser of the
amount the physician, supplier, or other person charges for the service
to a particular beneficiary or the amount the physician, supplier, or
other person has voluntarily agreed to accept as payment in full under
a particular private plan contract that also covers the beneficiary
when Medicare is primary and the private plan is secondary.
This definition of ``actual charge'' will apply to all services
covered under Part B of Medicare for which the actual charge is a
factor in the determination of the Medicare payment basis (for example,
physician services, durable medical equipment, or ambulance services)
that are billed by a supplier as defined in Sec. 400.202 and paid by a
Medicare carrier. The proposed definition of ``actual charges'' will
not apply to payments made on behalf of beneficiaries who are enrolled
in both Medicare and Medicaid when the Medicaid payment is less than
the Medicare allowed amount.
We refer to ``physician, supplier, or other person'' throughout the
preamble to conform to the statutory language that applies to
individuals and entities that bill Medicare carriers for Part B covered
services and to clarify that the policy applies to physicians as well
as other entities and persons who are included in the definition of
``supplier'' set forth at Sec. 400.202.
We are proposing the change because we have recently received
numerous questions regarding the meaning of the term ``actual charge''
in cases in which beneficiaries are also enrollees of private plans
that are secondary to Medicare and that pay physicians, suppliers, or
other persons a discounted payment on a fee-for-service basis under a
contract. We are proposing these changes to protect beneficiaries and
to permit Medicare to share in the savings when physicians, suppliers,
or other persons have agreed to accept less than the Medicare fee
schedule or reasonable charge amounts as payment in full.
It is increasingly common for Medicare beneficiaries to be insured
not only by Medicare but also by private plans in which physicians,
suppliers, or other persons have signed agreements to accept the
private plan's allowed payment amount as payment in full for the
services to the plan's enrollees (for example, preferred provider
plans). Increasingly, these private plans pay physicians, suppliers, or
other persons less than Medicare pays for the same service for the same
beneficiary, and the physician, supplier, or other person has
voluntarily agreed to accept this lower amount because it is in his,
her, or its interest to do so. For example, in exchange for accepting a
payment lower than the Medicare payment amount, the physician,
supplier, or other person may gain access to a patient population, may
introduce a new physician or supplier to the community, or may expand
referral opportunities.
When Medicare is the primary payer and the private plan is the
secondary payer, an agreement by a physician, supplier, or other person
to accept from the private plan as payment in full a payment amount
that is less than the physician fee schedule amount may mean that the
retiree will have greater out-of-pocket expenses for the same service
after he or she enrolls in Medicare Part B than he or she had without
Medicare. However, because many private plans cover items and services
that are very expensive to beneficiaries (for example, prescription
drugs, eyeglasses and hearing aids, and preventive medical care),
beneficiaries may want to continue the private plan coverage. Also,
many private plans and employers require that individuals enroll in
Medicare Part B as a condition of continuing enrollment in the private
plan.
In a hypothetical example, a 65-year-old Medicare beneficiary also
has health insurance coverage under a private plan
[[Page 33185]]
that he has carried over into retirement. The private plan offers a
wider range of coverage than Medicare (for example, self-administered
prescription drugs that would otherwise cost the beneficiary $300 per
month). Upon entitlement to Medicare, the beneficiary enrolled in Part
B, and Medicare is the primary payer; the private plan is secondary.
The beneficiary must enroll and remain enrolled in Medicare Part B, or
he will be dropped from the private plan.
In this example, the beneficiary had a procedure performed by a
physician who participates in the private plan, and the physician is
paid on a fee-for-service basis and has agreed to accept the plan's
payment amount as payment in full. Under the terms of the private
plan's contract with the physician, the physician can charge the
beneficiary a $5 copayment per encounter. In this case, the physician's
charge to uninsured individuals is $1,500, the physician fee schedule
amount is $1,000, and the private plan's negotiated payment amount
(which the physician has agreed to accept as payment in full for the
plan's enrollees) is $800. The physician is a Medicare-participating
physician. The physician also participates in other private insurance
plans in which he has agreed to accept as payment in full a negotiated
amount less than the physician fee schedule amount; the least he has
agreed to accept as payment in full under any agreement with an insurer
is $700 for the procedure in the example.
In this example, the physician currently submits a bill to Medicare
(the primary payer) of $1,500 for the procedure, and Medicare pays him
or her $800 (80 percent) after comparing the current actual charge
shown on the claim ($1,500) to the physician fee schedule amount
($1,000) and basing payment on the lesser amount as required by law.
The physician then tries to collect the Medicare coinsurance of $200
from the private plan. The private plan refuses to pay the physician
any part of the $200 coinsurance. The physician collects the $5
copayment from the beneficiary and also tries to bill the beneficiary
for $195 since the private plan did not pay the Medicare coinsurance.
Thus, the beneficiary could be exposed to large financial liabilities
in these situations.
We are proposing to recognize as the ``actual charge'' for that
service to that beneficiary the amount the physician agreed to accept
as payment in full for the beneficiary ($800) because the beneficiary
is an enrollee in the plan. Medicare would pay the physician $640 (80
percent of the $800 he agreed to accept as payment in full), the plan
would pay $155 of the coinsurance (the difference between the 20
percent Medicare coinsurance and the beneficiary's $5 copayment), and
the beneficiary would pay his $5 copayment. The beneficiary would be
responsible only for the $5 copayment he owes under the private plan,
as if he or she did not have Medicare. The physician would receive the
full amount that he or she had already agreed with the plan to accept
as payment in full for the beneficiary. The private plan would be
responsible for paying the coinsurance based on the lower of the
Medicare physician fee schedule amount or the payment the plan
negotiated with the physician, except for the $5 copayment for which
the beneficiary continues to be liable. Medicare would share in the
savings negotiated by the private plan for the beneficiary who is
enrolled in that plan.
There is no definition of ``actual charge'' in the Medicare
statute, and some would argue that ``actual charge'' means whatever
amount the physician, supplier, or other person who furnishes the
service states it is, regardless of whether he, she, or it charges the
beneficiary or the beneficiary's private plan that amount or makes any
effort to collect it. In fact, because of the prevalence of
participation in private plans, the physician, supplier, or other
person might never charge or expect to collect this amount from anyone.
However, we believe that the law grants us broad authority to
interpret the term in a manner that is reasonable and consistent with
the Medicare law. Thus, we are proposing through rulemaking to define
the term ``actual charge'' in the context of what the physician,
supplier, or other person has voluntarily agreed to accept as payment
in full for the service furnished to the beneficiary. We believe that
the term ``actual charge'' can be interpreted as the amount that the
physician, supplier, or other person actually expects to collect from a
responsible party under a voluntary agreement to provide services for
an agreed-upon price, regardless of what amount is shown on a claim for
payment. We have already applied this concept for purposes of routine
waivers of coinsurance (see section 5220 of the Medicare Carrier
Manual). We have a longstanding policy that construes the routine
waiver of coinsurance as lowering the ``actual charge'' from the amount
shown on the bill. In this circumstance, the actual charge is what the
physician, supplier, or other person actually expects to receive for
the service: when he, she, or it waives the coinsurance, the ``actual
charge'' for the service is the 80 percent of the Medicare payment
amount that the physician expects to receive. Our proposed rule would
extend this longstanding analysis to the negotiated rate situation.
Our proposal deems the negotiated rate specific to the private plan
in which the beneficiary is an enrollee to be the ``actual charge''
since the physician, supplier, or other person has voluntarily agreed,
before the provision of the service, to accept the lower negotiated
rate as payment in full and to charge the beneficiary no more than the
copayment specified in the contract. If we adopt this proposal, the
physician, supplier, or other person would have to put the negotiated
rate that applies to the private plan in which the beneficiary is an
enrollee on the Medicare claim as his or her submitted charge. When the
applicable negotiated rate is lower than the rate Medicare would pay
for the service, and, as such, is deemed to be the ``actual charge,''
the lower negotiated rate would be shown on the claim for Medicare
payment as the actual charge, and Medicare's payment would be based on
the lower negotiated rate. Conversely, when the applicable negotiated
rate for the item or service is higher than the Medicare payment for
the service and is deemed to be the ``actual charge,'' it would be
shown as the submitted charge on the claim to Medicare, and payment
would be based on the applicable Medicare fee schedule or reasonable
charge profile.
However, there are alternative ways that we could address this
issue: we could define the ``actual charge'' as being the lower of the
lowest amount the physician, supplier, or other person has agreed to
accept as payment in full from any insurer with whom he, she, or it has
a contract. Under this alternative, the ``actual charge'' in our
example would be $700, the lowest charge that the physician has
voluntarily agreed to accept as payment in full. Medicare would pay
$560, the managed care plan would pay $135, and the beneficiary would
pay $5. The beneficiary would be responsible for paying the physician
only the $5 copayment. The physician would receive an amount equivalent
to the lowest amount for which he is willing to provide the service,
which might be less than the amount he has agreed to accept for that
particular beneficiary if the beneficiary were not enrolled in the plan
with the lowest negotiated payment. This approach would ensure that
Medicare would not pay more than the lowest amount for which the
physician, supplier, or other person is willing to furnish the item or
service in the competitive market to any patient covered by any third
party
[[Page 33186]]
payor. This alternative would effectively apply the market forces to
payment by Medicare by defining the ``actual charge'' as the lowest of
all amounts for which the physician will provide the service. While
this approach would provide Medicare with the advantage of the
physician's, supplier's, or other person's best price in the
competitive market, that price may be lower than that for which the
physician, supplier, or other person has agreed to furnish items or
services to patients covered in the beneficiary's plan.
On balance, we believe that our proposed definition of the term
``actual charge'' is consistent with the Medicare statute, provides the
best protections for beneficiaries and Medicare, and continues to
ensure that the physician, supplier, or other person receives the
payment that he or she has voluntarily agreed to accept as payment in
full for the service when furnished to the beneficiary to whom that
payment applies.
III. Collection of Information Requirements
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, we are required to
provide 60-day notice in the Federal Register and solicit public
comment before a collection of information requirement is submitted to
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. In
order to fairly evaluate whether an information collection should be
approved by OMB, section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 requires that we solicit comment on the following issues:
The need for the information collection and its usefulness
in carrying out the proper functions of our agency.
The accuracy of our estimate of the information collection
burden.
The quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected.
Recommendations to minimize the information collection
burden on the affected public, including automated collection
techniques.
We are soliciting public comment on each item for the following
section of this document that contains information collection
requirements:
Sec. 410.33 (Independent Diagnostic Testing Facility (IDTF))
(1) The IDTF must maintain documentation of sufficient physician
resources during all hours of operation to assure that the required
physician supervision is furnished. The supervising physician must
evidence proficiency in the performance and interpretation of each
type of diagnostic procedure performed by the IDTF. The proficiency
may be documented by certification in specific medical specialties
or subspecialties or by criteria established by the carrier for the
service area in which the IDTF is located. In the case of a
procedure requiring the direct or personal supervision of a
physician as set forth in Sec. 410.32(b)(3)(ii) or (b)(3)(iii), the
IDTF's supervising physician must personally furnish this level of
supervision whether the procedure is performed in the IDTF or, in
the case of mobile services, at the remote location. In the case of
procedures requiring direct supervision, the supervising physician
may oversee concurrent procedures.
(2) The IDTF must maintain documentation available for review
certifying that nonphysician personnel have the training and
proficiency as evidenced by licensure or certification by the
appropriate State health or education department or, in the absence
of a State licensing board, a national credentialing body.
(3) An IDTF that operates across State boundaries must maintain
documentation that its supervising physicians and technicians are
licensed and certified in each of the States in which it is
furnishing services.
The public reporting burden for these record keeping
requirements is minimal. There are 500 IDTFs each requiring 10
minutes to maintain documentation. The total public burden is 84
hours.
Please mail copies of any comments on these information collection
and recordkeeping requirements directly to the following:

IV. Response to Comments
Because of the large number of items of correspondence we normally
receive on Federal Register documents published for comment, we are not
able to acknowledge or respond to them individually. We will consider
all comments we receive by the date and time specified in the ``DATES''
section of this preamble, and, if we proceed with a subsequent
document, we will respond to the comments in the preamble to that
document.
V. Regulatory Impact Analysis
We have examined the impacts of this proposed rule under Executive
Order (E.O.) 12866, the Unfunded Mandates Act of 1995, and the
Regulatory Flexibility Act. E.O. 12866 directs agencies to assess all
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, when
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public
health and safety effects; distributive impacts and equity). A
regulatory impact analysis (RIA) must be prepared for major rules with
economically significant effects ($100 million or more annually).
Although this proposed rule would result in aggregate savings for
calendar year 1998 of $95 million, the greatest share of that amount,
$55 million, is a result of a specific provision of section 1848(b)(2)
of the Act, as discussed in V.B.2 of this preamble.
The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 also requires (in section
202) that agencies prepare an assessment of anticipated costs and
benefits before proposing any rule that may result in an annual
expenditure by State, local, or tribal governments, in the aggregate,
or by the private sector, of $100 million. The proposed rule has no
consequential effect on State, local, or tribal governments. We believe
the private sector costs of this rule fall below these thresholds, as
well.
A. Regulatory Flexibility Act
Consistent with the provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act we
analyze options for regulatory relief for small businesses and other
small entities. We prepare a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis (RFA)
unless we certify that a rule would not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities. The RFA is to include
a justification of why action is being taken, the kinds and number of
small entities the proposed rule will affect, and an explanation of any
considered meaningful options that achieve the objectives and would
lessen any significant adverse economic impact on the small entities.
For purposes of the Act, all physicians are considered to be small
entities. Thus, we have prepared the following analysis, which,
together with the rest of this preamble, meets all three assessment
requirements. It explains the rationale for and purposes of the rule,
details the costs and benefits of the rule, analyzes alternatives, and
presents the measures we propose to minimize the burden on small
entities.
B. Resource-Based Practice Expense Relative Value Units
Our proposal requires the development of a methodology for
implementing resource-based practice expense RVUs for each physician
service. The methodology must consider the staff, equipment, and
supplies used
[[Page 33187]]
in the provision of medical and surgical services in various settings.
We are required to implement the new practice expense RVUs by January
1, 1998.
The resource-based practice expense RVUs are calculated, in the
aggregate, to be budget neutral with respect to the current practice
expense RVU system. (Section 1848(c)(2)(B) of the Act requires that
adjustments to the physician fee schedule provisions in a year may not
cause the amount of expenditures for the year to differ by more than
$20 million from what expenditures would have been in the absence of
these changes. If the $20 million threshold would be exceeded, we make
adjustments to preserve budget neutrality.)
We anticipate that the reduction of net Medicare income for some
physician practices will result in a volume and intensity response that
will cause overall physician expenditures to increase by 2.4 percent,
requiring an offsetting 2.4 percent reduction in the CFs to maintain
budget neutrality. As in previous years, we will increase the Medicare
volume performance standard targets for physician spending by the
anticipated volume and intensity response. Because we will increase the
targets, if the anticipated volume and intensity response does not
occur, the Medicare volume performance standard system will return the
reduction to the CFs in the form of higher updates.
1. Impact on Specialties
The following table, ``Resource-Based Practice Expense Relative
Value Units (RVUs) Impact on Total Allowed Charges by Specialty for the
Two Indirect Allocation Options,'' shows the percentage change in
Medicare physician income from the current RVUs to the new RVUs by
specialty for both the direct cost and pass through indirect allocation
methodologies. The specialties are ranked according to the allowed
charge impact of the changes in Medicare fees under the direct cost
allocation methodology. The impact of the changes on the total income
(Medicare and non-Medicare) for a given specialty will be less than the
impact displayed in the table if physicians furnish services to
Medicare and non-Medicare patients.
The magnitude of the Medicare impact depends on the mix of services
the specialty furnishes. In general, those specialties that furnish
more office-based services are expected to experience larger increases
in Medicare payments than specialties that provide fewer office-based
services. For example, under the revised physician fee schedule,
thoracic surgeons can expect a reduction in Medicare payments of 28
percent. By contrast, family practice physicians can expect an increase
in payments of 12 percent.
The table also includes the impact of increasing the work RVUs for
global surgical services and the impact of the 2.4 percent volume and
intensity adjustment.

2. Impact on Physician Net Income
Table 2, ``Estimated Change in Physician Net Income By Specialty,''
illustrates the increases and decreases in total net income by
physician specialty assuming the resource-based practice expense RVU
system is implemented without a transition period. The table shows only
net income after considering changes for Medicare. Total net income
could differ from the amounts in the table because of other payers'
responses to Medicare's resource-based practice expense RVU system.

Total payments amounts represent national amounts (amounts before the application of the geographic practice
cost indices and include proposed changes for work and practice expense.
4. Impact on Beneficiaries
Although changes in physician payments when the physician fee
schedule was implemented in 1992 were large, we detected no problems
with beneficiary access to care. We are concerned, nevertheless, about
the financial impact from the resource-based practice expense RVUs on
certain specialties and the beneficiary's access to care. As stated
earlier, we favor a transition period.
5. Impact on Hospitals
Payment for certain outpatient hospital services can be affected by
physician fee schedule allowances. The budget neutrality provision for
practice expense RVUs does not apply to payments for hospital services.
Specifically, outpatient radiology and certain other outpatient
diagnostic services, such as electrocardiograms and
electroencephalograms, are paid under a statutory formula (section
1833(a)(2)(E) of the Act) in which payment for services during a
hospital's cost reporting period is determined in the aggregate and is
based on the lesser of:
Reasonable costs less the Part B deductibles and
coinsurance.
Customary charges less Part B deductible and coinsurance.
Blended amounts.
The blended amount for outpatient radiology services is based on 42
percent of the lower of the hospital's costs or charges and 58 percent
of the allowance for the combined PC and TC service.
The blended amount for outpatient diagnostic services is based on
50 percent of the lower of the hospital's costs or charges and 50
percent of the allowance for the combined PC and TC service.
The interaction of the resource-based expense RVUs with the
outpatient hospital payment policy will result in savings to the
Medicare program as follows:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C. Geographic Practice Cost Index Changes
Section 1848(e)(1)(A) of the Act requires that payments under the
Medicare physician fee schedule vary among payment areas only to the
extent that area costs vary as reflected by the area GPCIs. The GPCIs
measure area costs differences in the three components of the physician
fee schedule: physician work, practice expenses (employee wages, rent,
medical supplies, and equipment), and malpractice insurance. Section
1848(e)(1)(C) of the Act requires that the GPCIs be reviewed and, if
necessary, revised at least every 3 years. The first GPCI revision was
implemented in 1995. The next revision will be implemented in 1998.
Section 1848(e)(1)(C) of the Act also requires that the GPCI revisions
be phased in equally over a 2-year period.
Addendum D, comparing the proposed and 1997 rental indices, and
Addendum E, comparing the proposed and 1997 malpractice GPCIs, are
comparisons of the pure indices changes unadjusted for budget
neutrality. The proposed GPCIs would be implemented in a budget-neutral
manner. They would not change the total national fee schedule payments
that would have been made in 1998 had the current GPCIs been retained.
The revised GPCIs will redistribute payments among fee schedule areas.
Fee schedule payments are the product of the RVUs, the GPCIs, and
the CF. The original GPCIs were used in computing the original 1992
budget-neutral CF. Updating the GPCIs changes
[[Page 33190]]
the relative position of fee schedule areas compared to the national
average. Since the changes represented by the proposed GPCIs could
result in total payments either greater or less than payments that
would have been made if the GPCIs were not revised, it was necessary to
adjust the GPCIs for budget neutrality. The revised 1995 through 1997
GPCIs would have resulted in slightly lower national payments than the
1992 through 1994 GPCIs. Since sections 1848(e)(3), (4), and (5) of the
Act require that each of the fee schedule components--work, practice
expense, and malpractice expense-- be separately adjusted by their
respective GPCIs, it is necessary to adjust each of the GPCI components
separately. Therefore, we adjusted the 1995 through 1997 GPCIs as
follows: work by 1.00074; practice expense by 1.00125; and malpractice
expense by 1.02307. The cumulative (including the 1995 through 1997
adjustments) budget-neutrality adjustment for the 1997 through 2000
GPCIs will be included in the final rule.
An estimate of the overall effects of GPCI changes on fee schedule
area payments can be demonstrated by a comparison of area geographic
adjustment factors or GAFs. The GAFs are a weighted composite of each
area's work, practice expense, and malpractice expense GPCIs using the
GPCI cost share weights. While not actually used in computing the fee
schedule payment for a specific service, the GAFs are useful in
comparing overall area costs and payments. The actual effect on payment
for any actual service will deviate from the GAF to the extent that the
service's proportions of work practice expense, and malpractice expense
RVUs differ from those of the GAF. Addendum F shows the estimated
effects of the proposed GPCIs on area GAFs in descending order. Only 2
of the 89 fee schedule areas change by at least 2 percent. Only 12
areas change by from 1 to 1.9 percent. The remaining 75 areas are
estimated to experience payment changes of less than 1 percent. These
are very minor changes that would be expected in that we are revising
only the rent indices, comprising 10.3 percent of the total GPCI, and
the malpractice expense indices, comprising 4.8 percent of the GPCI.
Thus, we are revising only about 15 percent of the GPCI.
The index changes as shown in Addenda D, E, and F represent changes
in the ``pure'' data constructed indices and are not adjusted for
budget neutrality. We do not at this time have proposed revised GPCIs
for 1998 and 1999 available for comment as we are awaiting more recent
payment data to ensure the accuracy of the adjustment. However, the
effects of the budget-neutrality adjustment will likely be
insignificant. As mentioned earlier, the budget-neutrality adjustments
for the 1995 GPCI revisions ranged from 1.0007 to 1.02307. Since we are
only revising about 15 percent of the GPCI components this time, the
budget-neutrality adjustment will likely be even less than in 1995. As
Addendum F shows, the largest unadjusted GAF change is 2.4 percent,
with over 80 percent of the GAFs changing by less than 1 percent. The
budget-neutrality adjustments are unlikely to measurably change the
estimated effects in Addendum F. Commenters can assume that Addendum F
accurately reflects the effects of the proposed revised GPCIs.
D. Fee Schedule for Clinical Psychologist Services
Before January 1, 1997, the clinical psychologist fee schedule was
derived from the reasonable charge payment system and was updated by an
economic index different from that used for the physician fee schedule.
As a result, relative to physicians, Medicare allowances for certain
clinical psychologist services in many localities were artificially
high or low. Moreover, there were wide geographic variations in
Medicare rates for clinical psychologists as well as for clinical
social workers, whose rates are set, by statute, at 75 percent of
clinical psychologists' rates.
Effective January 1, 1997, the fee schedule for clinical
psychologist services is linked to the physician fee schedule. The fee
schedule for clinical psychologist services is set at 100 percent of
the physician fee schedule amount for the corresponding service. This
payment policy was prompted by the creation of new psychotherapy codes
that make a distinction between services that include or exclude
medical evaluation and management.
Both previous and current clinical psychologist fee schedules were
implemented through carrier instruction. Because the final rule
following this proposed rule will codify current payment policy, there
will be no impact on Medicare program or beneficiary expenditures.
E. Diagnostic Tests
Our proposal specifies the level of physician supervision required
for diagnostic tests furnished in settings in which such services are
payable under the physician fee schedule. All of these tests would
require at least a general level of physician supervision (that is,
responsibility for the equipment and nonphysician personnel). The
following services would be excepted from this provision:
Diagnostic mammography procedures regulated by the FDA.
Certain tests performed by qualified audiologists as
discussed earlier.
Certain testing services performed by qualified
independent psychologists as discussed earlier.
This proposed policy may result in some program savings due to the
denial of payments for tests that are not reasonable and necessary
because the required level of physician supervision was not furnished.
However, we do not have data on which to base an estimate of savings.
We expect that, if the proposal is adopted, most testing entities that
did not previously furnish testing with the level of physician
supervision required under the proposal would modify the way they
furnish testing services to conform to the new policy.
Our proposal would create a new type of entity known as an
independent diagnostic testing facility (IDTF) with specific national
standards. It would replace the existing IPL. Since the current IPL
national policy is based on State law and local Medicare carrier
policy, it is likely that some IPLs in certain areas would be more
affected by this proposal than others. We do not have any data upon
which to base any estimates of savings at this time. We anticipate that
there will be many comments on this proposed change, and we expect to
have more information about the effects of this proposal after we
review the comments. There are wide-spread allegations of unnecessary
testing furnished by IPLs under the current policy. Our proposal is
designed to assist Medicare carriers in addressing these allegations.
F. Reasonable Compensation Equivalent Limit Update Factor
The methodology currently employed to update the physician fee
schedule uses an inflation factor distinct from the CPI-U used to
update the reasonable compensation equivalent limits. To achieve a
measure of consistency in the methodologies employed to determine
reasonable payments to physicians for physicians' direct medical and
surgical services furnished to individual patients and reasonable
compensation levels for physicians' services that benefit provider
patients generally, we are proposing to revise the methodology used to
update the reasonable compensation equivalent limits by adopting the
physician fee schedule's inflation factor (the MEI) to update the
reasonable compensation equivalent limits. For cost reporting periods
[[Page 33191]]
beginning on or after January 1, 1998, updates to the reasonable
compensation equivalent limits would be calculated using the MEI.
Because we are not proposing an actual update to the reasonable
compensation equivalent limits at this time that is based on the MEI
for cost reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 1998, we do
not expect this change in policy to have an impact on Medicare program
or beneficiary expenditures at this time.
G. Payment to Participating and Nonparticipating Suppliers
We are proposing to revise the definitions at Sec. 414.2
(Definitions) to define a ``participating supplier'' as being a
supplier as defined in Sec. 400.202, which includes physicians as
suppliers, when they have an agreement with HCFA to participate in Part
B of Medicare in effect on the date of the service. Similarly, we are
proposing to define ``nonparticipating supplier'' as a supplier that
does not have an agreement with HCFA to participate in Part B of
Medicare in effect on the date of the service.
We are also proposing to revise Sec. 414.20 (Formula for computing
payment amounts) to clarify that the formula in the section computes
the fee schedule amount, which may differ from the payment basis, and
to clarify that the fee schedule amount for a nonparticipating supplier
is 95 percent of the fee schedule amount for a participating supplier.
We are also proposing to revise the heading of Sec. 414.20 to read
``Formula for computing fee schedule amounts'' to reflect more
accurately the content of the section.
We are proposing to revise Sec. 414.48 (Limits on actual charges of
nonparticipating suppliers), which describes the Medicare limiting
charge for nonparticipating suppliers to clarify that the limiting
charge is 115 percent of the fee schedule amount for nonparticipating
physicians as calculated in 414.20(b).
The proposed changes to Secs. 414.2, 414.20, and 414.48 would have
no impact on Medicare payment, beneficiaries, physicians, other
suppliers of physician services, Medicare carriers, or other insurers.
We believe that Medicare carriers are currently properly calculating
the fee schedule amounts for participating and nonparticipating
suppliers and are paying based on those properly calculated amounts.
These changes are intended to conform our regulations to the law and
current practice.
H. Increase in Work Relative Value Units for Global Surgical Services
To Account for the 1997 Increases for Work Relative Value Units in
Evaluation and Management Services
In our November 22, 1996 final rule with comment period, as part of
the 5-year review of all physician work RVUs, we increased most of the
work RVUs for evaluation and management services for hospital and
office or other outpatient visits. We revised the work RVUs for
evaluation and management services partly in recognition of the
increase in preservice and postservice work. At that time, we made no
adjustments to the work RVUs assigned to global surgical services,
which, in addition to the surgical procedure, include the related pre-
and postoperative evaluation and management visits a surgeon provides
within a defined period of time.
Upon further examination of this issue, we are proposing to
increase the work RVUs for global surgical services to be consistent
with the 1997 increases in the work RVUs for evaluation and management
services.
Because the increases in the work RVUs for global surgical services
will cause an increase in payments for those services, we must reduce
all work payments by 0.6 percent to maintain budget neutrality.
I. Caloric Vestibular Testing
We are proposing to reduce the work and malpractice RVUs for CPT
code 92543 global service and CPT code 92543-26, and the malpractice
RVUs for CPT code 92543-TC to 25 percent of what they would otherwise
be. Therefore, beginning in 1998, when a physician performs and
interprets four irrigations, the physician would bill Medicare for four
units of CPT code 92543 (that is, the global service). When a physician
interprets four irrigations, the physician would bill four units of CPT
code 92543-26. When a physician or supplier performs four irrigations,
the physician or supplier would bill four units of CPT code 92543-TC.
As part of the overall proposal of resource-based practice expense
RVUs for all codes, we would establish practice expense RVUs for CPT
code 92543 global service, -26, and -TC based on the assumption that
one unit of the service equals one irrigation or the interpretation of
one irrigation.
We expect the proposed changes to the RVUs for caloric vestibular
testing to have no impact on Medicare program or beneficiary
expenditures because this is actually a change in coding interpretation
rather than a change in value. Medicare has interpreted one unit of CPT
code 92543 to mean up to four irrigations and has established its RVUs
based on that interpretation. The AMA interprets one unit to mean one
irrigation. Therefore, when the usual service is furnished (that is, a
total of four irrigations--two to each ear), Medicare instructed
physicians to bill for that as one unit of service, while the AMA's
instructions considered it four. We are now, in a budget-neutral
fashion, adopting the AMA interpretation to reduce billing confusion
regarding this code. The change is being made by having what used to be
one service--for Medicare purposes--now equal four services, while at
the same time establishing the RVU levels at 25 percent of what they
would have otherwise been.
J. Clinical Consultations
The regulations set forth at Sec. 415.130 (Conditions for payment:
Physician pathology services), paragraph (b) (Clinical consultation
services), require that a clinical consultation meet four criteria
before it can be paid. One of these criteria is that the clinical
consultation must be requested by the patient's attending physician. We
have allowed a standing order policy to be used as a substitute for the
individual request by the patient's attending physician. We are
proposing that, effective January 1, 1998, we would not accept a
standing order as a substitute for the individual request by the
attending physician. We would instruct the Medicare carriers to enforce
Sec. 415.130(b) as it is presently written.
The national allowed charges for CPT code 80500 (Clinical pathology
consultation; limited, without review of patient's history and medical
records) for 1996 are $5.6 million. Of this amount, 70 percent of total
allowed charges are from seven States. These are: Florida, Texas,
Oklahoma, Illinois, Kentucky, California, and Missouri. Florida
accounts for $2.5 million or 45 percent of the total.
We believe that the use of standing orders is clearly contributing
to increased payments for clinical consultations in Florida relative to
other States. We do not know the prevalence of standing orders in other
States but, generally, the data do not seem to indicate a widespread
problem.
We estimate that the our policy to eliminate standing orders will
result in savings of $2 to $3 million nationwide for clinical
consultations and that almost all of this will be attributable to
Florida.
[[Page 33192]]
K. Actual Charges
In new Sec. 414.21 (Medicare payment basis), we are proposing to
state that Medicare payment is based on the lesser of the physician's,
supplier's, or other person's actual charge or the physician fee
schedule amount. This comports with section 1848(a)(1) of the Act. In
Sec. 400.202 (Definitions specific to Medicare), we are proposing to
define the actual charge to be the lesser of the amount the physician,
supplier, or other person charges for the service or the amount the
physician, supplier, or other person has agreed to accept as payment in
full under any contract that applies to the beneficiary for whom
Medicare payment is being claimed.
It is difficult to estimate the impact of this proposal because we
do not have data on the number of persons who would be affected and the
average discount given by physicians and suppliers in affected plans.
However, with a plausible set of assumptions, the proposal would result
in savings to the Medicare program as follows:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Calendar year incurred (in millions)
-----------------------------------------------------
1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 Total
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Medicare savings.......................................... 40 44 48 53 59 245
Medicare savings (after premium offset)................... 30 33 36 40 44 183
Beneficiary coinsurance savings........................... 10 11 12 13 15 61
Beneficiary savings through premium reduction............. 10 11 12 13 15 61
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Although there will be some impacts on individual plans and
beneficiaries, we are unable to determine the aggregate impact on the
premiums for private plans that are secondary to Medicare and that have
negotiated rates that are less than the Medicare fee schedule because
we do not have information regarding the total number of enrollees
(including non-Medicare persons) among whom any increased costs would
be shared.
L. Elimination of the Separate Budget-Neutrality Adjuster for the Work
Relative Value Units
As discussed in the November 22, 1996 final rule (61 FR 59532) for
the 1997 physician fee schedule, we intend to eliminate the separate
8.3 percent budget-neutrality adjustment to the work RVUs that resulted
from changes made during the 5-year review of work RVUs. We propose to
accomplish this by increasing the practice and malpractice expense RVUs
by 8.3 percent and reducing the CFs by 8.3 percent. This allows us to
eliminate the separate adjuster while not changing the payment for any
service. Also, we will raise the practice expense and malpractice
expense RVUs by an additional 0.6 percent and reduce the CF by an
additional 0.6 percent to account for the increases in the work
payments for the global surgical services that are related to the 5-
year review of work RVUs. These increases are not reflected in the
practice and malpractice expense RVUs found in Addendum C.
M. Rural Hospital Impact Statement
Section 1102(b) of the Act requires the Secretary to prepare a
regulatory impact analysis if a rule may have a significant impact on
the operations of a substantial number of small rural hospitals. This
analysis must conform to the provisions of section 603 of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act. 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 proposed rule would have little direct effect on payments to
rural hospitals since this rule would change only payments made to
physicians and certain other practitioners under Part B of the Medicare
program and would make no change in payments to hospitals under Part A.
We do not believe the changes would have a major, indirect effect on
rural hospitals.
Therefore, we are not preparing an analysis for section 1102(b) of
the Act since we have determined, and the Secretary certifies, that
this rule would not have a significant impact on the operations of a
substantial number of small rural hospitals.
In accordance with the provisions of Executive Order 12866, this
regulation was reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget.
The final rule following publication of this proposed rule will be
subject to congressional review and will be forwarded to the Congress
for a 60-day review period.

C. Part 410 is amended as set forth below:
1. The authority citation for part 410 continues to read as
follows:
Authority: Secs. 1102 and 1871 of the Social Security Act (42
U.S.C. 1302 and 1395hh), unless otherwise indicated.
2. Section 410.32 is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 410.32 Diagnostic x-ray tests, diagnostic laboratory tests, and
other diagnostic tests: Conditions.
(a) Ordering diagnostic tests. All diagnostic x-ray tests,
diagnostic laboratory tests, and other diagnostic tests must be ordered
by the physician who treats the beneficiary, that is, the physician who
furnishes a consultation or treats a beneficiary for a specific medical
problem and who uses the results in the management of the beneficiary's
specific medical problem. Tests not ordered by the physician who treats
the beneficiary are not ``reasonable and necessary'' (see
Sec. 411.15(k)(1) of this chapter).
(1) Chiropractic exception. A physician may order an x-ray to be
used by a chiropractor to demonstrate the subluxation of the spine that
is the basis for a beneficiary to receive manual manipulation
treatments even though the physician does not treat the beneficiary.
(2) Mammography exception. A physician who meets the qualification
requirements for an interpreting physician under section 354 of the
Public Health Service Act as provided in Sec. 410.34(a)(7) may order a
diagnostic mammogram based on the findings of a screening mammogram
even though the physician does not treat the beneficiary.
(3) Application to nonphysician practitioners. Nonphysician
practitioners (that is, clinical nurse specialists, clinical
psychologists, clinical social workers, nurse-midwives, nurse
practitioners, and physician assistants) who furnish services that
would be physician services if furnished by a physician, and who are
operating within the scope of their authority under State law and
within the scope of their Medicare statutory benefit, may be treated
the same as physicians treating beneficiaries for the purpose of this
section.
(b) Diagnostic x-ray and other diagnostic tests.
(1) Basic rule. Except as indicated in paragraph (b)(2) of this
section, all diagnostic x-ray and other diagnostic tests covered under
section 1861(s)(3) of the Act and payable under the physician fee
schedule must be furnished under the appropriate level of supervision
by a physician as defined in section 1861(r) of the Act. Services
furnished without the required level of supervision are not
``reasonable and necessary'' (see Sec. 411.15(k)(1) of this chapter).
(2) Exceptions. The following diagnostic tests payable under the
physician fee schedule are excluded from the basic rule set forth in
paragraph (b)(1) of this section:
(i) Diagnostic mammography procedures, which are regulated by the
Food and Drug Administration.
(ii) Diagnostic tests personally furnished by a qualified
audiologist as defined in section 1861(ll)(3) of the Act.
(iii) Diagnostic psychological testing services personally
furnished by a qualified independent psychologist as defined in program
instructions.
(3) Levels of supervision. Except where otherwise indicated, all
diagnostic x-ray and other diagnostic tests subject to this provision
and payable under the physician fee schedule must be furnished under at
least a general level of physician supervision as defined in paragraph
(b)(3)(i) of this section. In addition, some of these tests also
require either direct or personal supervision as defined in paragraphs
(b)(3)(ii) or (b)(3)(iii) of this section, respectively. When direct or
personal supervision is required, physician supervision at the
specified level is required throughout the performance of the test.
(i) ``General supervision'' means the procedure is furnished under
the physician's overall direction and control, but the physician's
presence is not required during the performance of the procedure. Under
general supervision, the training of the nonphysician personnel who
actually perform the diagnostic procedure and the maintenance of the
necessary equipment and supplies are the continuing responsibility of
the physician. Examples of procedures in this category are x-ray
procedures described in paragraphs (c)(3)(i) and (c)(3)(ii) of this
section and electrocardiograms.
(ii) ``Direct supervision'' in the office setting does not mean
that the physician must be present in the room when the procedure is
performed; however, the physician must be present in the office suite
and immediately available to furnish assistance and direction
throughout the performance of the procedure. Examples of procedures in
this category are magnetic resonance imaging procedures, computerized
axial tomography procedures, nuclear medicine procedures, procedures in
which contrast materials are used, and x-rays other than skeletal,
abdominal, and chest x-rays.
(iii) ``Personal supervision'' means a physician must be in
attendance in the room during the performance of the procedure.
Examples of procedures in this category include cardiovascular stress
tests, cardiac catheterization, and radiological supervision and
interpretation procedures.
(c) Portable x-ray services. Portable x-ray services furnished in a
place of residence used as the patient's home are covered if the
following conditions are met:
(1) These services are furnished under the general supervision of a
physician, as defined in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this section.
(2) The supplier of these services meets the requirements set forth
in part 486, subpart C of this chapter, concerning conditions for
coverage for portable x-ray services.
(3) The procedures are limited to--
(i) Skeletal films involving the extremities, pelvis, vertebral
column, or skull;
(ii) Chest or abdominal films that do not involve the use of
contrast media; and
(iii) Diagnostic mammograms if the approved portable x-ray
supplier, as defined in subpart C of part 486 of this chapter, meets
the certification requirements of section 354 of the Public Health
Service Act, as implemented by 21 CFR part 900, subpart B.
(d) Diagnostic laboratory tests. Medicare Part B pays for covered
[[Page 33194]]
diagnostic laboratory tests that are furnished by any of the following:
(1) A participating hospital or participating RPCH.
(2) A nonparticipating hospital that meets the requirements for
emergency outpatient services specified in subpart G of part 424 of
this chapter and the laboratory requirements specified in part 493 of
this chapter.
(3) The office of the patient's attending or consulting physician
if that physician is a doctor of medicine, osteopathy, podiatric
medicine, dental surgery, or dental medicine.
(4) An RHC.
(5) A laboratory, if it meets the applicable requirements for
laboratories of part 493 of this chapter, including the laboratory of a
nonparticipating hospital that does not meet the requirements for
emergency outpatient services in subpart G of part 424 of this chapter.
(6) An FQHC.
3. New Sec. 410.33 is added to read as follows:
Sec. 410.33 Independent Diagnostic Testing Facility.
(a) General rule. (1) Effective for diagnostic procedures performed
on or after January 1, 1998, carriers will pay for diagnostic
procedures under the physician fee schedule only when performed by a
physician, a group practice of physicians, an approved supplier of
portable x-ray services, or an independent diagnostic testing facility
(IDTF). An IDTF may be a fixed location, a mobile entity, or an
individual nonphysician practitioner. It is independent of a
physician's office or hospital.
(2) Exceptions. The following diagnostic tests that are payable
under the physician fee schedule and furnished by a nonhospital testing
entity are not required to be furnished in accordance with the criteria
set forth in paragraphs (b) through (e) of this section:
(i) Diagnostic mammography procedures, which are regulated by the
Food and Drug Administration.
(ii) Diagnostic tests personally furnished by a qualified
audiologist as defined in section 1861(ll)(3) of the Act.
(iii) Diagnostic psychological testing services personally
furnished by a qualified independent psychologist as defined in program
instructions.
(b) Supervising physician. (1) An IDTF must have one or more
supervising physicians who are responsible for the direct and ongoing
oversight of the quality of the testing performed, the proper operation
and calibration of the equipment used to perform tests, and the
qualification of nonphysician personnel who use the equipment. This
level of supervision is that required for general supervision set forth
in Sec. 410.32(b)(3)(i).
(2) The supervising physician must evidence proficiency in the
performance and interpretation of each type of diagnostic procedure
performed by the IDTF. The proficiency may be documented by
certification in specific medical specialties or subspecialties or by
criteria established by the carrier for the service area in which the
IDTF is located. In the case of a procedure requiring the direct or
personal supervision of a physician as set forth in
Sec. 410.32(b)(3)(ii) or (b)(3)(iii), the IDTF's supervising physician
must personally furnish this level of supervision whether the procedure
is performed in the IDTF or, in the case of mobile services, at the
remote location. The IDTF must maintain documentation of sufficient
physician resources during all hours of operations to assure that the
required physician supervision is furnished. In the case of procedures
requiring direct supervision, the supervising physician may oversee
concurrent procedures.
(c) Nonphysician personnel. Any nonphysician personnel used by the
IDTF to perform tests must demonstrate the basic qualifications to
perform the tests in question and have training and proficiency as
evidenced by licensure or certification by the appropriate State health
or education department. In the absence of a State licensing board, the
technician must be certified by the appropriate national credentialing
body. The IDTF must maintain documentation available for review that
these requirements are met.
(d) Ordering of tests. All procedures performed by the IDTF must be
specifically ordered in writing by the physician who treats the
beneficiary, that is, the physician who is furnishing a consultation or
treating a beneficiary for a specific medical problem and who uses the
results in the management of the beneficiary's specific medical
problem. The order must specify the diagnosis or other basis for the
testing. The supervising physician for the IDTF may not order tests
performed by the IDTF, and the IDTF may not add any procedures based on
internal protocols without written order from the treating physician.
(e) Multi-State entities. An IDTF that operates across State
boundaries must maintain documentation that its supervising physicians
and technicians are licensed and certified in each of the States in
which it is furnishing services.
PART 414--PAYMENT FOR PART B MEDICAL AND OTHER HEALTH SERVICES
D. Part 414 is amended as set forth below:
1. The authority citation for part 414 continues to read as
follows:
Authority: Secs. 1102, 1871, and 1881(b)(1) of the Social
Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1302, 1395hh, and 1395rr(b)(1)).
2. Section 414.20 is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 414.20 Formula for computing fee schedule amounts.
(a) Participating supplier. The fee schedule amount for a
participating supplier for a physician service as defined in Sec. 414.2
is computed as the product of the following amounts:
(1) The RVUs for the service.
(2) The GAF for the fee schedule area.
(3) The CF.
(b) Nonparticipating supplier. The fee schedule amount for a
nonparticipating supplier for a physician service as defined in
Sec. 414.2 is 95 percent of the fee schedule amount as calculated in
paragraph (a) of this section.
3. A new Sec. 414.21 is added to read as follows:
Sec. 414.21 Medicare payment basis.
Medicare payment is based on the lesser of the actual charge, as
defined in Sec. 400.202 of this chapter, or the applicable fee schedule
amount.
4. In Sec. 414.22, the introductory text to the section and the
introductory text to paragraph (b) are republished, and new paragraph
(b)(4) is added to read as follows:
Sec. 414.22 Relative value units (RVUs).
HCFA establishes RVUs for physician work, physician practice
expense, and malpractice insurance.
* * * * *
(b) Practice expense RVUs. * * *
(4) For services furnished beginning January 1, 1998, the practice
expense RVUs are based on the relative practice expense resources
involved in furnishing the service.
(i) There are generally two levels of practice expense RVUs per
code. The lower practice expense RVU applies to services furnished to
hospital or ambulatory surgical center patients. The higher practice
expense RVU applies to services performed in a physician's office;
services, other than evaluation and management services, that are
furnished to patients in a nursing facility, in a facility or
institution other than a hospital or ambulatory surgical center, or in
the home; and other services furnished to facility patients for
[[Page 33195]]
which the facility payment does not include physician practice costs.
(ii) There is only one practice expense RVU per code for: services
that have a technical component practice expense RVU; a professional
component practice expense RVU; evaluation and management services,
such as hospital or nursing facility visits, that are furnished
exclusively in one setting; and major surgical services.
* * * * *
5. In Sec. 414.32, paragraph (b) is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 414.32 Determining payments for certain physician services
furnished in facility settings.
* * * * *
(b) General rule. If physician services of the type routinely
furnished in physician offices are furnished in facility settings
before January 1, 1998, the fee schedule amount for those services is
determined by reducing the practice expense RVUs for the service by 50
percent. For services furnished on or after January 1, 1998, see
Sec. 414.22(b)(4) concerning practice expense RVUs.
* * * * *
6. In Sec. 414.34, the introductory text to paragraph (a)(2) is
republished and a new paragraph (a)(2)(iii) is added to read as
follows:
Sec. 414.34 Payment for services and supplies incident to a
physician's service.
(a) Medical supplies. * * *
(2) If physician services of the type routinely furnished in
provider settings are furnished in a physician's office, separate
payment may be made for certain supplies furnished incident to that
physician service if the following requirements are met:
* * * * *
(iii) It is furnished before January 1, 1998.
* * * * *
7. In Sec. 414.48, paragraph (b) is revised to read as follows:
Sec. 414.48 Limits on actual charges of nonparticipating suppliers.
* * * * *
(b) Specific limits. For items or services paid under the physician
fee schedule, the limiting charge is 115 percent of the fee schedule
amount for nonparticipating suppliers. For items or services HCFA
excludes from payment under the physician fee schedule (in accordance
with section 1848(j)(3) of the Act), the limiting charge is 115 percent
of 95 percent of the payment basis applicable to participating
suppliers as calculated in Sec. 414.20(b).
8. Section 414.62 is added to read as follows:
Sec. 414.62 Fee schedule for clinical psychologist services.
The fee schedule for clinical psychologist services is set at 100
percent of the amount determined for corresponding services under the
physician fee schedule.

Addendum B--Proposed Statistical Linking Methodology
CPEP ``X'' gave labor time estimates for procedure code ``1'' that,
after applying the compensation rate, is valued at $5. CPEP X valued
procedure code ``2'' at $7. For CPEP ``Y,'' the compensation cost for
labor for procedure code 1 is $10. If we had averaged the CPEPs' values
for procedure code 1, the resulting value for procedure code 1 would be
$7.50. This would result in a switched ranking of procedure codes 1 and
2 for CPEP X. For example, if CPEP ``X'' ranked CPT code 99213 lower
than CPT code 99214, it is possible this ranking would be reversed
after we calculated the average values for CPT code 99213 across all
CPEPs.
Specifically, we estimated the following equation for procedure
codes that were rated in a given setting (that is, in or out of the
office) by more than one CPEP:
(1) LN(Labor costij = Codei +
CPEPj + Uij
Where:
Labor costij is the labor cost of redundant
Codei performed by CPEPj;
Codei is a dummy variable that takes on a value of 1 if
Codei was performed by CPEPij and has a value of
0 otherwise;
CPEPj is a dummy variable that takes on a value of 1 if
Codei was evaluated by CPEPj and has a value of 0
otherwise;
Uij is a random disturbance for the Codei in
CPEPj.
Because this was a dummy variable regression, one specialty dummy,
CPEP 7 was omitted and serves as the base
[[Page 33196]]
against which other CPEP data are standardized. CPEP 14 data were also
deleted from the linking process because they had no links.
We used Mosteller and Tukey's bi-weighting algorithm to reduce the
influence of observations with large residuals. (See Mosteller, F. and
Tukey, J.W.: A method of direct assessment. Data Analysis and
Regression: A Second Course in Statistics. Reading, MA. Addison-Wesley
Publishing Company, 1977, pages 357 through 358.) We terminated the
iteration process when none of the CPEP dummies changed in the fifth
place to the right of the decimal point. The bi-weighting algorithm
converged for both administrative and clinical costs by the fourth
iteration.
The coefficients of interest are the CPEP dummies. These dummies
were then used to scale their respective CPEP scales by exp(-
CPEPj) for each CPEPj, j=CPEP 1, * * *, CPEP 15,
excluding CPEP 7 and CPEP 14. Because the resulting labor cost
estimates are shifts of CPEPs relative to CPEP 7, they had to be
rescaled so the administrative labor cost estimates could be added to
the clinical labor cost estimates.
To facilitate this calculation, we used data analyses performed on
the 1995 AMA Socioeconomic Monitoring System Survey Data to calculate
the number of RVUs that would be attributed to administrative labor and
clinical labor. Separately for administrative and clinical labor, we
multiplied the resulting labor cost estimates for each code by its
respective frequency to calculate the total number of administrative
and clinical labor cost estimates. We compared this number to the
number of administrative and clinical labor cost estimates implied by
the current RVUs for practice expense and scaled the new estimates to
fit this estimate.
