SUMMARY: This document corrects 

technical errors that appeared in the 

proposed rule published in the Federal 

Register on July 25, 2005 entitled 

‘‘Medicare Program; Proposed Changes 

to the Hospital Outpatient Prospective 

Payment System and Calendar Year 

2006 Payment Rates; Proposed Rule.’’

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background 

FR Doc. 05–14448 contains our 

proposed rule to update the Medicare 

Outpatient Prospective Payment System 

for calendar year (CY) 2006. We have 

identified a number of technical errors 

in the ‘‘Summary of Errors’’ section and 

are correcting them in the ‘‘Correction of 

Errors’’ section below. 

II. Summary of Errors 

A. Corrections Related to the Rural 

Adjustment Calculation 

The calendar year (CY) 2006 

Outpatient Prospective Payment System 

(OPPS) proposed rule that we published 

in the Federal Register on July 25, 2005 

included a proposed 6.6 percent 

adjustment for rural sole community 

hospitals. The calculations used to 

develop the conversion factor and 

budget neutrality scalar inadvertently 

incorporated this adjustment as 6.4 

percent. The rural adjustment is used in 

calculations that determine the scalar 

and conversion factor, and therefore 

affects the payment rates and 

copayment amounts published in the 

proposed rule. The corrected scalar is 

1.003753831, and the corrected 

conversion factor is $59.343. The 

various changes to the preamble are 

specified under section III. of this 

correction notice. In addition to 

preamble text changes, we are correcting 

specific tables and addenda which also 

reflected the inadvertent use of a 6.4 

percent rural adjustment factor, which 

we have described below. 

On page 42709, we published Table 

11. We are correcting the last column of 

this table to present the corrected 

proposed CY 2006 payment amounts. In 

section III. of this notice, we republish 

Table 11 as corrected. 

On pages 42761–42762, we published 

Table 33. In section III. of this notice, 

we republish Table 33 as corrected. 

On pages 42764–42775, we published 

Addendum A, which provides the 

payment rates and copayment amounts 

for Ambulatory Payment Classification 

(APC) groups used for payment 

purposes under the OPPS. A corrected 

Addendum A is posted on the OPPS 

Web site at http://www.cms.hhs.gov/ 

providers/hopps/2006p/1501p.asp. 

On pages 42776–42965, we published 

Addendum B, which provides the 

payment rates and copayment amounts 

for services payable under OPPS. A 

corrected Addendum B, including 

additional technical errors affecting 

HCPCS codes 78814, 78815, 78816, 

91035, and 95950 is posted on the OPPS 

Web site at http://www.cms.hhs.gov/ 

providers/hopps/2006p/1501p.asp. 

We are posting the corrected 

Addendum A and Addendum B on our 

Web site rather than publishing them in 

this notice because of the large volume 

of data included in these addenda. Hard 

copies of these tables are available by 

contacting the CMS staff member 

identified above. 

We note that as soon as we discovered 

these inadvertent errors that affected the 

payment rates noted in the proposed 

rule, we posted the corrections on the 

CMS Web site at: http:// 

www.cms.hhs.gov/providers/hopps/ 

2006p/1501p.asp. 

B. Other Corrections 

We also noted other typographical, 

formatting, and other technical errors in 

the proposed rule. 

On page 42714, we published Table 

15. The proposed ‘‘unadjusted’’ and 

‘‘adjusted’’ CY 2006 APC median cost 

for APC 0085 Level II Electrophysiologic 

Evaluation contained a typographical 

error and should read $2,123.38. We are 

correcting this under section III. of this 

notice. 

On page 42761, column 2 includes a 

comparison that discusses the 

differences in copayments from CY 2005 

to CY 2006. While the analysis of this 

example is correct, the example 

incorrectly identifies the comparison as 

being the ‘‘minimum unadjusted 

copayment’’ rather than the ‘‘national 

unadjusted copayment’’. We are making 

this correction under section III. of this 

notice to refer to the ‘‘national 

unadjusted copayment’’. 

On page 42737, we published Table 

26, which inadvertently excluded C2636 

(Brachytherapy linear source, Palladium 

–103, per 1 mm) which was accurately 

described in the text of page 42736 as 

a proposed separately payable 

brachytherapy source. In section III. of 

the notice we append the excluded row 

to correct table 26 as published. 

The other technical, typographical, 

formatting, and other errors that 

appeared on various other pages of the 

Federal Register are corrected as noted 

in section III. of this notice.
