Calculation of Top Performer and Improvement Award Amounts Sample Clauses

Calculation of Top Performer and Improvement Award Amounts. Hospitals that receive an award in either the top performer or the improvement categories will be paid the same amount on a per discharge basis. The hospitals in these two categories will be determined for each clinical area, and the total number of Medicare fee-for-service patients discharged in that clinical area will be determined. The per patient award amount will be determined by dividing the total number of discharged patients into the available 60% of the incentive award amount. Payments to each hospital will depend on the number of discharged patients in the clinical category. The total incentive category amount for top performers and for improvement hospitals will not be identical since we expect that there will be different numbers of discharged patients in the two categories, but the amount per discharged Medicare beneficiary will be the same. Note: Any hospital that is in both the top performer and improvement categories will receive only one award for these categories.
