The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and its Medicare Administrative Contractors (MACs) are performing S-10 audits for all impacted hospitals—and new complexities are developing.

Additionally, new S-10 instructions and supporting documentation requirements have been released placing additional burdens on hospitals to meet stringent S-10 requirements upon cost report submission.
