Medicare cost limits ... is there any relief?
Medicare cost limits stem from 20-year-old legislation that determines "reasonable" rates for reimbursement. Although those rates have periodically been adjusted, they often do not represent a reasonable limitation on a provider's reimbursement. How can agencies challenge limits and appeal unfavorable rulings? What are the most successful means of appeal?
