CAPTION

Discussion and presentation of the proposed Uniform Hospital Rate Increase Program.

BACKGROUND

Presentation by Carlos Zafarrini regarding the proposed UHRIP.  

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is currently seeking approval from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to implement the Uniform Hospital Rate Increase Program (UHRIP) for hospital services beginning September 1, 2017.  If approved, the rate increases would reduce hospitals' Medicaid shortfall in the managed care service delivery areas in which the program is implemented.
