For cost reporting periods ending on or after December 31, 2008, the new

regulations governing appeals before the Provider Reimbursement Review

Board (PRRB) require that, in order to appeal an issue to the PRRB, a provider

either (1) expressly claim a cost as an allowable cost on its cost report or (2) if

CMS policy indicates the cost is not allowable, include the cost on the cost

report as a protested amount. 42 C.F.R. ยง 405.1835(a)(1)(ii). The new PRRB

rules also state that for cost reporting periods ending on or after December 31,

2008, a provider must demonstrate how it followed the applicable procedures. Leslie Demaree Goldsmith of Ober|Kaler discusses.
