Medicare reimbursement varies significantly across hospital settings which creates substantial differences in payment rates, financial incentives, and operational considerations. Understanding how Medicare reimburses different types of facilities is essential for making informed financial and operational decisions throughout the year.

Join Ovation Healthcare’s Vice Presidents of Healthcare Finance and Reimbursement, David Perry and Patrick Nudo, for an overview of the major hospital types participating in Medicare, including Acute Care Hospitals, Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs), Sole Community Hospitals (SCHs), Medicare-Dependent Hospitals (MDHs), and Rural Emergency Hospitals (REHs). Participants will learn how Medicare payment methodologies differ across these sites of care and how the annual Medicare Cost Report ultimately determines the final settlement of those payments.
