Details Information

Abstract: This proposed rule reflects the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ commitment to the general principles of the President’s Executive Order 13563 released January 18, 2011, entitled ‘‘Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review,’’ as this rule would: implement a new reconsideration process for administrative determinations to disallow claims for Federal financial participation (FFP) under title XIX of the Act (Medicaid); lengthen the time States have to credit the Federal Government for identified but uncollected Medicaid provider overpayments and provide that interest will be due on amounts not credited within that time period; make conforming changes to the Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) disallowance process to allow States the option to retain disputed Federal funds through the new administrative reconsideration process; revise installment repayment standards and schedules for States that owe significant amounts; provide that interest charges may accrue during the new administrative reconsideration process if a State chooses to retain the funds during that period. This proposed rule would also make a technical correction to reporting requirements for disproportionate share hospital payments, revise internal delegations of authority to reflect current CMS structure, remove obsolete language, and correct other technical errors.
