RE: FY 2015 IPPS Rule

In response to questions we’ve gotten recently about the provisions of the FY 2015 IPPS rule that affect new residency training programs, the AAMC drafted the attached “AAMC Summary of FY 2015 IPPS Provisions Affecting New Residency Training Programs.”

Comment letters on these (and all other IPPS) proposals are due to CMS on  June 30.  To the extent you have concerns about any of these proposals that you would like the AAMC to consider including in our own comment letter, please contact us as soon as possible (preferably prior to June 18).  The AAMC has not identified any significant problems with these proposals to date, but we welcome your input.

For more information, please contact Lori Mihalich-Levin at lmlevin@aamc.org or 202-828-0599.
