April 30, 2019 FFY 2020 PUF

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released the final FY 2020 wage index data public use files (PUFs) on APRIL 30, 2019.  The files are available for the limited purpose of identifying any potential data entry or transmission errors made by CMS or the A/B Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs), NOT for the initiation of new revision requests.   Hospitals should promptly review their final wage index data files and compare that to the data in the April 30, 2019 PUF to ensure that their Worksheet S-3 wage are accurate.  All requests from hospitals for corrections to their FY 2020 wage index data files must be submitted to and received (i.e., not postmarked) by both the A/B MACs and CMS on or before May 30, 2019.

The following file has been created and can be downloaded and used with the HFS Wage Index Verification Tool (located under Tools) for the Federal Fiscal Year 2020, April 30, 2019 PUF:
