|
A market basket increase of 3.0% for Medicare severity-adjusted diagnosis-related group (“MS-DRG”) operating payments for hospitals reporting specified quality measure data and that are meaningful users of electronic health record technology; CMS also finalized certain adjustments to the 3.0% market basket increase that result in a net operating payment update of 3.1% (before budget neutrality adjustments), including:
|
•
|
A multifactor productivity reduction required by the ACA of 0.4%; and
|
•
|
A 0.5% increase required under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015;
|
•
|
Updates to the three factors used to determine the amount and distribution of Medicare uncompensated care disproportionate share (“UC-DSH”) payments; in addition to adjusting the UC-DSH amounts, CMS will base the distribution of the FFY 2020 UC-DSH amounts on uncompensated care costs reported by hospitals in the 2015 cost reports, which reflects changes to the calculation of a hospital’s share of the UC-DSH amounts by: (1) removing low income days; and (2) using a single year of uncompensated care cost in lieu of the three-year averaging methodology used in recent years;
|
•
|
A 0.7% net increase in the capital federal MS-DRG rate;
|
•
|
An increase in the cost outlier threshold from $25,769 to $26,473; and
|
•
|
Changes in the calculation of the wage index areas that include:
|
•
|
Increasing the wage index for hospitals with a wage index below the 25th percentile and applying a uniform budget neutrality factor to the IPPS base rates to offset the estimated increase in IPPS payments to hospitals with wage index values below the 25th percentile;
|
•
|
A refinement to the calculation of the “rural floor” wage index; and
|
•
|
A one-year stop-loss transition for a hospital that experiences a decline of greater than 5% in its wage index.
|
•
|
An estimated net increase of 2.7% for the OPPS rates based on an estimated market basket increase of 3.2% reduced by a multifactor productivity adjustment required by the ACA of 0.5%;
|
•
|
A continuation of the reduced payment amount for separately payable drugs acquired with a discount under CMS’ 340B program (“340B Drugs”) equal to a rate of average sales price (“ASP”) minus 22.5%; CMS is also soliciting comments on alternative payment policies for 340B Drugs, as well as the appropriate remedy for CYs 2018 and 2019, in the event that CMS does not prevail on appeal in the pending litigation discussed in greater detail below;
|
•
|
A prior authorization process for five categories of services;
|
•
|
A 2.7% increase to the ASC payment rates; and
|
•
|
Codification of and additional standards relating to the requirements that hospitals disclose prices, including negotiated prices for certain services.

1.
|
I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Tenet Healthcare Corporation (the “Registrant”);
|
2.
|
Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;
|
3.

Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;
|
4.
|
The Registrant’s other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the Registrant and have:
|
(a)
|
Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the Registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;
|
(b)
|
Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;
|
(c)
|
Evaluated the effectiveness of the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and
|
(d)
|
Disclosed in this report any change in the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Registrant’s most recent fiscal quarter (the Registrant’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting; and
|
5.
|
The Registrant’s other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the Registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of the Registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):
|
(a)
|
All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Registrant’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and
|
(b)
|
Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
