The proposed 2022 Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System and ASC Payment System would remove 258 procedures from the ASC payable list if finalized later this year.
The proposed rule, released July 19, would roll back several policy changes that went into effect in January, including CMS' plan to eliminate the inpatient-only list. Click here for the musculoskeletal procedures that would return to the inpatient-only list.
CMS is accepting comments on the 2022 proposed rule through Sept. 17.
