CMS Wage Index 2020 and the Occupational Mix Survey: Putting the Data to Work for Your Organization

3/23/2020

Compensation costs are one of the largest line expenses for healthcare providers. Make sure your payroll data is working hard to get you the most in Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) payments. For many hospitals around the country, managing the CMS annual wage index is a time-consuming process with big impacts on payment revenue. The complex and ever-changing nature of the index, coupled with local oversight and geographical differences in data, make the careful management of this process critical to healthcare institutions. Just a percentage point or two difference in the outcome can mean the difference in millions in additional reimbursement to providers.
