April 29 Public Use File (PUF) for the FY 2025 Wage Index

July 24th, 2023 No comments

CMS published the Final Public Use File (PUF) for the FY 2025 Wage Index and Occupational Mix April 29, 2024. This file reflects the Worksheet S-3, Parts II and III wage data from cost reports for Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 (FY Beginning from 10/1/2020 to 9/30/2021).

Hospitals will have approximately 1 month (May 29, 2024) to verify their data and submit correction requests to both CMS and their MAC to correct errors due to CMS or MAC mishandling of the final wage and occupational mix data as posted in the April 29, 2024 PUF.  The PUF is available at the below link:
