[EX Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Hood Bay Land Exchange Act of
1997''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

The Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act
established the Admiralty Island National Monument which is managed
by the Secretary of Agriculture, by and through the Forest Service.
(2) The Forest Service has established a policy of encouraging
the acquisition of private land inholdings within Admiralty Island
National Monument on a willing buyer/willing seller basis. Congress
has supported this policy, for example by passage of the Greens
Creek Land Exchange Act of 1996 which provided for a land exchange
of certain public and private lands in Admiralty Island National
Monument.
(3) Lands owned by Alaska Pulp Corporation, consisting of 54
acres, more or less, located in Hood Bay on Admiralty Island within
the boundaries of the Kootznoowoo Wilderness are available for
transfer to Federal ownership on a willing seller/willing buyer
basis. The acquisition of these lands would provide Federal
ownership of this valuable land in a critical area of Admiralty
Island National Monument.
(4) The United States is the owner of certain reversionary
interests to 143.87 acres, more or less, located adjacent to Silver
Bay near Sitka, Alaska, which interests were reserved in patent No.
1213671 issued to the Alaska Pulp Corporation on October 18, 1960.
The transfer of the reversionary interests of the United States in
such lands adjacent to Silver Bay to the Alaska Pulp Corporation
would facilitate future use and development of that land.
(5) The future acquisition by the United States of the Chaik
Bay property on Admiralty Island to be incorporated into the
Kootznoowoo Wilderness would be in the public interest.

(a) Report to Congress.--Not later than 12 months after the date of
the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Health and Human Services,
in consultation with physicians, administrators of inpatient
rehabilitation and acute care hospitals, Medicare beneficiaries, and
trade organizations representing inpatient rehabilitation hospitals and
units, shall submit to the Committee on Ways and Means of the House of
Representatives and the Committee on Finance of the Senate a report
that includes--
(1) an examination of the impact of the 75 percent rule on
the Medicare program and the specific impact of the rule on
Medicare beneficiaries; and
(2) alternatives to the 75 percent rule policy for
determining exclusion criteria for inpatient rehabilitation
hospital and unit designation under the Medicare program,
including determining clinical appropriateness of inpatient
rehabilitation hospital and unit admissions, and including
alternative criteria based solely on a measure of a patient's
functional status which is independent of diagnosis.
For the purposes of this section, the term ''75 percent rule'' means
the requirement of section 412.23(b)(2) of title 42, Code of Federal
Regulations, that 75 percent of the patients of a rehabilitation
hospital or converted rehabilitation unit are in 1 or more of 13 listed
treatment categories.
(b) Considerations.--In developing the report described in
subsection (a), the Secretary shall include the following:
(1) The effect of the 75 percent rule on access to
inpatient hospital rehabilitation care by Medicare
beneficiaries and the effectiveness of care available to such
beneficiaries in other health care settings.
(2) A comparative analysis of the overall Medicare system
costs, including Medicare expenditures to acute care hospitals,
home health agencies, skilled nursing facilities, and long-term
care hospitals, resulting from implementation of the 75 percent
rule.
(3) A analysis that compares the quality, cost, and patient
outcomes of inpatient rehabilitation services among different
post-acute care settings, including whether the Medicare
program and Medicare beneficiaries may incur higher costs of
care for the entire episode of illness because of factors such
as--
(A) readmissions to acute care hospitals that could
have been avoided absent the 75 percent rule; or
(B) extended lengths of stay in post-acute settings
other than a rehabilitation hospital or unit because
beneficiaries were denied access to care in such a
hospital or unit due to the 75 percent rule.

SEC. 3. TECHNICAL CORRECTION FOR INPATIENT REHABILITATION HOSPITALS AND
UNITS NOMENCLATURE.

(a) In General.--Section 1886(j) of the Social Security Act (42

facilities' costs'' and inserting ''costs of inpatient

Services shall, under regulation and Medicare program guidance, use the
term ''inpatient rehabilitation hospital/unit'' or ''IRH/U'' to refer
to entities receiving payment for inpatient rehabilitation services
under section 1886(j) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395ww(j)).

[EX A]: Amends the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 to revise the classification criterion used to determine whether a hospital or hospital unit is an inpatient rehabilitation facility under title XVIII (Medicare) of the Social Security Act.

Directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services, instead, to require in the classification criterion a compliance rate no greater than the 60% compliance rate that became effective for cost reporting periods beginning on or after July 1, 2006.

Requires the Secretary, for cost reporting periods beginning on or after July 1, 2008, to include patients with comorbidity in the inpatient population that counts towards such 60% compliance rate.

Requires the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and Medicare fiscal intermediaries, Medicare administrative contractors, recovery audit contractors, and other government agents to use and apply the criteria established in HCFA Ruling 85-2, as issued on July 31, 1985, as the sole standard for determining the medical necessity of servivces provided by inpatient rehabilitation hospitals and units to Medicare beneficiaries.

Educational Assistance Program and the ROTC model to solve the

students committed to serving the United States as primary care
doctors at the Department of Veterans Affairs.
