Gabriel Scott and Andrew Ruskin discuss how Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has recently promulgated rules implementing the provisions of the Consolidated Appropriations Act that affect a very large number of community hospitals. Specifically, due to CMS’s interpretation of Medicare graduate medical education reimbursement rules, many community hospitals are no longer eligible for these payments and don’t even know it. This episode discusses the dilemma that community hospitals might be facing and emphasizes the importance of meeting a 1 July 2022 deadline CMS has imposed that may allow these hospitals to press the reimbursement “reset button.”
