MedPAR Revenue Center Model Reimbursement Amount

SAS Name
RC_MODEL_REIMBRSMT_AMT

This this line-level field will be used to identify the "Net Reimbursement Amount" of what Medicare would have paid for the Global Budget Service reflected at the line level, from a hospital participating in the particular model.

Comments

This field is derived by accumulating the Revenue Center Model Reimbursement Amount (REV-CNTRMODEL-AMT) that is present on any line item on all claim records included in the stay (i.e., sum of the REV-CNTR-MODEL-AMT reported on the claims that comprised the stay).

For the participating hospitals in the PA model all inpatient and outpatient services (Facility/Technical Services) are considered part of the Model/Global Budget Services. Basically, all the services for a participating hospital would be global except for CAH Method II (85X) claim lines with revenue center codes 096X, 097X, and 098X. The CAH Method II professional services (rev codes 096X, 097X, and 098X) process as they do today, they have nothing to do with the model.

This field is first available in 2019.
