CHA Submits Comments for 2025 OPPS and PFS Proposed Rules

CHA highlighted pediatric considerations in response to certain provisions within the proposed rules, which could have a downstream impact on Medicaid.

On Sept. 9, 2024, CHA submitted comments in response to the 2025 Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) and Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) proposed rules. Although these are Medicare rules, CHA submits comments because Medicare policy can have a downstream impact on Medicaid policy. Therefore, we highlighted pediatric considerations in response to certain provisions within both rules.

The OPPS comments highlight the Medicaid continuous eligibility and CHIP policies included in the proposed rule, and the PFS proposed rule comments focus on various telehealth and mental health proposed policies.
