[Histonet] RE: Grandfather TC Change

[Weems, Joyce K.]

There's no negotiation that I know of.. we will probably just lose money because the DRG will not include those costs. We have good client pricing with our reference labs, but we won't know how this will affect us all until the dust settles. Maybe the DRG fairies will adjust the reimbursement to include those tests!!???

I'm interested if anyone is dealing with the expired Grandfather TC rule.  I'm mainly interested in how you may be negotiating with your hospital concerning the reimbursement difference. Any thoughts would be helpful.
