Administrative Bulletin 17-14 114.1 CMR 41.00: Rates of Payment for Services Provided to Industrial Accident Patients by Hospitals
Effective July 1, 2017
Publication of Payment on Account Factors (PAFs) for Hospital Services
The Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS), pursuant to 114.1 CMR 41.05(1) and (3) and in accordance with Section 123 of Chapter 224 of the Acts of 2012, is publishing the Payment on Account Factors (PAF) for acute and non-acute hospital services rendered to industrial accident patients. The PAF was computed using data from each hospital’s most recent complete fiscal year. The application of the PAF to all billed charges payable pursuant to 114.1 CMR 41.00 results in the payment of the average percentage of charges paid by the private sector to each hospital for its services. This payment calculation shall be deemed to meet the test of reasonable cost of medical services prescribed by M.G.L. c. 152, the Workers’ Compensation Act. No lesser amount shall be paid unless agreed to by the provider, insurer, and employer.
Provided below are the PAFs for acute and non-acute hospital services rendered on or after July 1, 2017.
