SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 508 of the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement and
Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) (Pub.
L. 108–173) permitted a qualifying
hospital to appeal the wage index
classification otherwise applicable to
the hospital and apply for
reclassification to another area of the
State in which the hospital was located
(or, at the discretion of the Secretary, to
an area within a contiguous State).
Hospitals were required to submit their
applications by February 15, 2004. In
the February 13, 2004 Federal Register
(69 FR 7340), we published a notice that
described our implementation of section
508 of MMA. The Congress limited the
reclassifications under section 508 of
MMA to a 3-year period beginning April
1, 2004 and ending March 31, 2007.
Section 106(a) of the Medicare
Improvements and Extension Act,
Division B of the Tax Relief and Health
Care Act of 2006 (MIEA–TRHCA) (Pub.
L. 109–432) extended any geographic
reclassification that was set to expire on
March 31, 2007 by 6 months until
September 30, 2007. In the March 23,
2007 Federal Register (72 FR 13799), we
published a notice explaining how we
would implement section 106 of MIEA–
TRHCA. We also explained that for a
subset of hospitals whose
