Compare and Contrast Payment Systems

Differentiate between the prospective payment systems for outpatient, home health,

physician and non-physician practitioners, and ambulatory surgical settings. In your

response ensure that you compare and contrast payment systems for each of the categories

listed.

Compare and Contrast

Inpatient and outpatient services have a different set of guidelines that are followed to

provide payment to health care organizations. Harrington (2020) explains that outpatient, home

health, physician/non-physician practitioners, and ambulatory surgery centers have separate rules

and regulations related to billing (p. 141). Health care administrators in each setting must be

able to differentiate between the different settings to meet site-specific regulations (Harrington,

2020, p. 141).

Biblical Principles

As health care workers, we should strive to provide quality, unbiased care to our patients.

It is not our decision to judge people from any walk of life as we do not know their history and

the extent of their unique situation. 1 Peter 2:24 states, “Who his own self bare our sins in his

own body in the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose

stripes ye were healed” (KJV, 2014). Proverbs 17:22 states, “A merry heart doeth good like a

medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones” (KJV, 2014).

Prospective Payment Systems

As of 1997, many Medicare payment systems were converted to Prospective Payment

Systems (PPSs) and was essentially started to curb runaway hospital costs (Schaum, 2013). A

Prospective Payment System (PPS) is a method of reimbursement in which Medicare payments

, are based on a predetermined, fixed amount (CMS, 2021). Under the PPS, payment amounts are

often set at a fixed amount and health care organizations will only receive a certain amount of

reimbursement for services rendered. According to CMS (2021), PPS that services rendered are

based on a classification system of a service like diagnosis-related groups for hospital inpatient

services (CMS, 2021). Outpatient health services are classified differently than inpatient

services. CMS (2021) explains that there are separate PPSs for reimbursement of outpatient

services like home health services, hospice services, psychiatric facilities, inpatient rehabilitation

facilities, long-term care facilities, and skilled nursing facilities. Under PPSs, if the hospital can

discharge a patient prior to the hospital expended the Medicare payment then the hospital can

keep the extra funds (Schaum, 2013). Furthermore, if the hospital spent more than the Medicare

Payment, the hospital is required to absorb those costs (Schaum, 2013). Due to reimbursement

coverage, hospitals had to learn quickly to discharge patients out of their care to other health care

agencies like home health agencies and skilled nursing facilities. Since hospitals are more apt to

discharge quickly, Medicare then began to receive higher payments to other sites of care like

physicians, hospital outpatient departments (HOPDs), ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), and

durable medical equipment (DME) companies (McMillan, Long, & Payne, 2019).

Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System

Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) is best defined as the system

through which Medicare decides how much money a hospital or community mental health center

will get for outpatient care to patients with Medicare (Medicare Interactive, 2021). The Centers

for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) started the OPPS in 2000 to pay for certain outpatient

services as a result of the Balanced Budget Act (BBA) of 1997 (CMS, 2019). OPPS applies to

hospital outpatient departments, however certain outpatient departments are excluded as they

only provide Medicare Part B services. Other health care entities that are excluded are critical

access hospitals (CAHs); Indian Health Services hospitals; and hospitals located in American
