Medicare program; clarification of Medicare's accrual basis of accounting policy--HCFA. Final rule.

Medicare program; clarification of Medicare's accrual basis of accounting policy--HCFA. Final rule.

Abstract

This final rule revises the Medicare regulations to clarify the concept of "accrual basis of accounting" to indicate that expenses must be incurred by a provider of health care services before Medicare will pay its share of those expenses. This rule does not signify a change in policy but, rather, incorporates into the regulations Medicare's longstanding policy regarding the circumstances under which we recognize, for the purposes of program payment, a provider's claim for costs for which it has not actually expended funds during the current cost reporting period.
