Therapy Cap Values for Calendar Year 2010 MLN Matters 6660 - Revised

This article was revised on November 24, 2009, to reflect a revised CR 6660 that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services issued on November 23, 2009. As a result of the revised CR, the article was revised to include Regional Home Health Intermediaries as an additional contractor type involved with this issue. The CR release date, transmittal number, and Web address for accessing CR 6660 were also changed. Also, carriers were added as a contractor type involved as they were inadvertently not included in the original article. All other information remains the same.
