§ 403.754 — Monitoring Expenditure Level

(a) Tracking expenditures. Starting in FFY 1999 CMS begins monitoring Medicare payments to RNHCIs.

(b) Carry forward. The difference between the trigger level and Medicare expenditures for a FFY results in a carry forward that either increases or decreases the unadjusted trigger level described in § 403.750(d). In no case may the carry forward exceed $50,000,000 for an FFY.
