Worksheet S-10: Calculating Hospital Uncompensated Care and Surviving an Audit (Room W205)

The accuracy of Worksheet S-10 reporting has never been more essential to hospitals, since this data source now drives significant provider reimbursement and is also subject to extensive MAC audits. This session will examine the latest Medicare DSH/uncompensated care calculations, as specified in the Inpatient Prospective Payment System Rule & Medicare DSH/Uncompensated Care calculations, provide trends and impacts associated with DSH hospitals, and offer a detailed discussion surrounding challenges hospitals encounter in calculating, accurately reporting, and documenting auditable support for their UC distributions.  Significant time will be spent on S-10 audits and best practices for completing Worksheet S-10 in accordance with the cost report instructions.
