CMS finalizes updates to the Increasing Organ Transplant Access Model for Performance Year 2, revising how participating Medicare kidney transplant hospitals are measured and paid under the model. The rule also makes a technical correction to the regulatory text.
§ 02 Why this matters
The final rule changes operational and payment terms for hospitals participating in the IOTA Model for PY2, affecting Medicare performance measurement and payment adjustments. The technical correction alone would be immaterial, but the PY2 model revisions create compliance and revenue-cycle impacts for covered transplant providers.
