Nature of the Action 1.

In furtherance of their conspiracy, defendants and their co-conspirators also agreed to regularly exchange detailed and non-public information about the compensation each is paying or will pay to its RN employees. The agreement to exchange such information has facilitated the formation, implementation and enforcement of defendants’ wage-fixing conspiracy. Pursuant to this agreement defendants and their co-conspirators in fact have exchanged such information, through meetings, telephone conversations and written surveys.

  • Readmissions Year 2 Data FORMATTED.Xlsx
    Medicare Readmission Penalties by Hospital (Year 2) Medicare will begin applying these readmissions penalties to reimbursements from Oct. 1, 2013, through Sept. 30, 2014. This chart shows the first year of penalties, which are being applied from Oct. 1, 2012, through Sept. 30, 2013; the penalties for the upcoming year; and the annual change. Maryland hospitals were not penalized because the state has a unique reimbursement arrangement with Medicare. Also exempt are certain cancer hospitals, critical access hospitals as well as hospitals dedicated to psychiatry, rehabilitation, long‐term care and veterans. In addition, hospitals with fewer than 25 cases in each of three categories ‐‐ heart failure, heart attack and pneumonia ‐‐ are exempt from the penalties. Medicare calculated penalties for some hospitals that are not on its list of currently registered hospitals. Those hospitals are noted with a (1) in the footnote column. Some may no longer be open.

We started with highly regarded national education programs that communicated the appropriate use of antibiotics and the critical role that beta-blockers play in preventing future heart attacks. We developed and implemented a centralized approach to data collection that has now forever changed provider credentialing. We introduced an innovative e-prescribing initiative. Most recently, we launched a multi-stakeholder collaboration that is advancing system interoperability and driving consistent information exchange between health plans and providers. Through each, CAQH has created lasting impact. Our work in 2008 further positioned CAQH as a nonprofi t alliance that achieves what it sets out to accomplish. Both the Committee on Operating Rules for Information Exchange® (CORE) and the Universal Provider Datasource® (UPD) reached important milestones last year. CAQH solutions generated heightened interest and support from stakeholders throughout the industry. As a result, we were able to increase momentum toward realizing our vision of a healthcare system in which administrative processes are effi cient and easily understood by patients, caregivers and providers. CORE CORE effectively moved beyond the proof-of-concept stage when it fi nalized the Phase II rules in September. In addition to offering connectivity and other data-exchange infrastructure standards, the Phase II rules address information critical to the healthcare revenue cycle. These data elements include more robust patient eligibility and benefi ts information, and year-to-date patient fi nancial liability.

  • Medicare Readmission Chart with September 2012 Update
    Medicare Readmission Penalties by Hospital (September Update) Medicare will apply the readmissions penalty to reimbursements beginning on Oct. 1. This chart shows both the original penalties released by Medicare in August and the corrected numbers Medicare released on Sept. 28. Maryland hospitals were not penalized because the state has a unique reimbursement arrangement with Medicare. In addition, hospitals with fewer than 25 cases in each of three categories-- heart failure, heart attack and pneumonia--are exempt from the penalties. These hospitals are noted in the "Penalty Eligibility Status."
