DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Office of the Secretary 

TRICARE, Formerly Known as the 

Civilian Health and Medical Program of 

the Uniformed Services (CHAMPUS); 

Fiscal Year 2012 Mental Health Rate 

Updates 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, 

Department of Defense. 

ACTION: Notice of updated mental health 

rates for Fiscal Year 2012. 

SUMMARY: This notice provides the 

updated regional per-diem rates for lowvolume mental health providers; the 

update factor for hospital-specific perdiems; the updated cap per-diem for 

high-volume providers; the beneficiary 

per-diem cost-share amount for lowvolume providers; and, the updated perdiem rates for both full-day and half-day 

TRICARE Partial Hospitalization 

Programs for Fiscal Year 2012. 

DATES: Effective Date: The Fiscal Year 

2012 rates contained in this notice are 

effective for services on or after October 

1, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: TRICARE Management 

Activity (TMA), Medical Benefits and 

Reimbursement Branch, 16401 East 

Centretech Parkway, Aurora, CO 80011– 

9066. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Elan 

Green, Medical Benefits and 

Reimbursement Branch, TMA, 

telephone (303) 676–3907. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The final 

rule published in the Federal Register 

(FR) on September 6, 1988, (53 FR 

34285) set forth reimbursement changes 

that were effective for all inpatient 

hospital admissions in psychiatric 

hospitals and exempt psychiatric units 

occurring on or after January 1, 1989. 

The final rule published in the Federal 

Register on July 1, 1993, (58 FR 35400) 

set forth maximum per-diem rates for all 

partial hospitalization admissions on or 

after September 29, 1993. Included in 

these final rules were provisions for 

updating reimbursement rates for each 

federal Fiscal Year. As stated in the final 

rules, each per-diem shall be updated by 

the Medicare update factor for hospitals 

and units exempt from the Medicare 

Prospective Payment System (i.e., this is 

the same update factor used for the 

inpatient prospective payment system). 

For Fiscal Year 2012, the market basket 

rate is 3.0 percent. This year, Medicare 

applied two reductions to its market 

basket amount: (1) A 1.0 percent 

reduction for economy-wide 

productivity required by section 3410(a) 

of the Patient Protection and Affordable 

Care Act (PPACA) which amended 

section 1886(b)(3)(B) of the Social 

Security Act, and (2) a 0.1 percent point 

adjustment as required by section 

1886(b)(3)(B)(xii) of the Act as added 

and amended by sections 3401 and 

10319(a) of the PPACA. These two 

reductions do not apply to TRICARE. 

Hospitals and units with hospitalspecific rates (hospitals and units with 

high TRICARE volume) and regionalspecific rates for psychiatric hospitals 

and units with low TRICARE volume 

will have their TRICARE rates for Fiscal 

Year 2012 updated by 3.0 percent 

Partial hospitalization rates for fullday and half-day programs also will be 

updated by 3.0 percent for Fiscal Year 

2012. 

The cap amount for high-volume 

hospitals and units also will be updated 

by the 3.0 percent for Fiscal Year 2012. 

The beneficiary cost share for lowvolume hospitals and units also will be 

updated by the 3.0 percent for Fiscal 

Year 2012. 

Per 32 CFR 199.14, the same area 

wage indexes used for the CHAMPUS 

Diagnosis-Related Group (DRG)-based 

payment system shall be applied to the 

wage portion of the applicable regional 

per-diem for each day of the admission. 

The wage portion shall be the same as 

that used for the CHAMPUS DRG-based 

payment system. For wage index values 

greater than 1.0, the wage portion of the 

regional rate subject to the area wage 

adjustment is 68.8 percent for Fiscal 

Year 2012. For wage index values less 

than or equal to 1.0, the wage portion 

of the regional rate subject to the area 

wage adjustment is 62 percent. 

Additionally, 32 CFR 199.14, requires 

that hospital specific and regional perdiems shall be updated by the Medicare 

update factor for hospitals and units 

exempt from the Medicare prospective 

payment system. 

The following reflect an update of 3.0 

percent for Fiscal Year 2012.
