Popis:	The elimination of urban-rural differences in the Medicare prospective payment system (PPS) standard rates implies a need to re-examine all the PPS payment adjustments. Refinements for case mix, outliers, and the wage index can make a significant contribution to avoiding payment disparities in a single-rate system. However, changes in the adjustments for teaching and disproportionate-share (DSH) hospitals are also needed. The typically urban location of these hospitals makes it difficult to balance PPS payments and costs among major groups of urban and rural hospitals without some form of higher payment for all hospitals located in large urban areas.
