The Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services (CMS) is requesting the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) approval for the Review Choice Demonstration for
Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (IRF) Services. This
demonstration will assist in developing improved procedures for the
identification, investigation, and prosecution of potential
Medicare fraud. By ensuring that payments for IRF services are
appropriate through either pre-claim or postpayment review, this
demonstration also works toward the prevention and identification
of potential fraud, waste, and abuse, as well as protecting the
Medicare Trust Funds from improper payments while reducing Medicare
appeals. CMS proposes performing the demonstration in Alabama,
Pennsylvania, Texas, and California, as well as IRFs in any state
that bill to the Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC)
jurisdictions JJ, JL, JH, and JE.
