• Overview– Mandated by Congress in the Balanced Budget Act
of 1997, to replace the existing cost-based payment methodology.
– Went into effect on August 1, 2000.– Applies to the majority of hospital outpatient
departments.

• Background information– Prior to August 1, 2000 Medicare paid for services
performed in the hospital outpatient under a number of different payment methods.
• As hospital actual charges increased, beneficiaries ended paying a higher percentage of the hospital bill leading Medicare to change to this new payment system.
