Good morning, CMS is proposing refinements to the SNF PPS. They are asking for comments. Basically they are proposing 9 (increasing from 44 RUGs to 53)new categories that will constitute a combination of rehabilitation and extensive services. There is some interesting "clarification" of "concurrent therapy" on page 74 (#7). You can review the proposed changes: http://www.cms.hhs.gov/providers/snfpps/cms-1282-p-display.pdf
