Teleconference/Webinar Title: Notification of Hospital Discharge Appeal Rights
Teleconference/Webinar Level: Intermediate
Teleconference/Webinar Description:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a final rule, called Notification of Hospital Discharge Appeal Rights on November 27, 2006, (CMS-4105-F). This final rule responds to the many comments (about 500) received on a proposed rule that was published in the Federal Register on April 5, 2006. The new law becomes effective on July 1, 2007. The proposed rule set forth requirements for how hospitals must notify Medicare beneficiaries who are hospital inpatients about their hospital discharge appeal rights. Notice is required for both original Medicare beneficiaries and for beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare health plans. This program will address the new regulation in detail and strategies to ensure compliance.
