Medicare program; ambulatory surgical centers: Health Care Financing Administration. Notice and request for comment.
HCFA is seeking specific information and suggestion for coverage and reimbursement under Medicare of certain surgical procedures that may be performed in ambulatory surgical centers. The information is needed to assist in the development of policies necessary to implement section 934 of the Omnibus Reconciliation Act (Pub. L. 96--499, December 5, 1980). That section, in part, provides new authority for payment under Medicare for procedures performed in these centers.
