title: Medicare program; changes to the hospital inpatient prospective payment systems and fiscal year 1996 rates; corrections--HCFA. Correction to final rule.
abstract: In the September 1, 1995, issue of the Federal Register (60 FR 45778), we published a final rule with comment period revising the Medicare hospital inpatient prospective payment systems for operating costs and capital-related costs to implement necessary changes arising from our continuing experience with the system. In the addendum to that final rule with comment period, we announced the prospective payment rates for Medicare hospital inpatient services for operating costs and capital-related costs applicable to discharges occurring on or after October 1, 1995, and set forth update factors for the rate-of-increase limits for hospitals and hospital units excluded from the prospective payment systems. This document corrects errors made in that document.
