WASHINGTON – CMS has published the 2024 DMEPOS Fee-for-Service Fee Schedule. The fee schedule goes into effect on Jan. 1, 2024, and includes the 2.6% to 3% CPI-U adjustments announced earlier in the month. CMS is planning to revert back to fully adjusted rates in non-rural areas, effectively removing the current 75/25 blended reimbursement rates, says AAHomecare. Due to this, the rates for competitively bid items in non-rural areas will be considerably lower than the relief rates in effect today. AAHomecare and HME stakeholders continue to advocate for the extension of relief rates. Legislation to extend the 75/25 blended rate for suppliers in non-rural areas was approved by the House Energy & Commerce Committee on Dec. 6. Download the 2024 fee schedule here.
