Novitas Solutions, Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) for Pennsylvania, continues to release inpatient rehabilitation facility review choice demonstration (IRF RCD) program updates, resources, upcoming educational opportunities, and important deadlines as IRFs in PA go through this implementation process.

Included in their most recent updates is:

  • Updated Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
  • An upcoming educational opportunity
    IRF RCD: Cycle 1 Progress — October 2, 2024, 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm
    Registration will be released soon and will be available here.

IRF RCD was initially implemented in Alabama in 2023, with the second round being implemented in Pennsylvania on June 17, 2024. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) created this process to ensure Medicare coverage and documentation requirements are likely met. This program reduces the number of Medicare appeals, improves provider compliance with Medicare program rules, does not alter the Medicare IRF benefit, and should not delay medically necessary care to Medicare beneficiaries.
