Report Description:
Under the inpatient psychiatric facility (IPF) prospective payment system (PPS), Medicare pays IPFs a standard per diem rate for inpatient services, modified for patient- and facility-level characteristics and length of stay. In addition, the IPF PPS includes an outlier payment policy that makes an additional payment in cases with unusually high costs to limit financial losses to IPFs.
