Section 2702(a) specifically requires that the Secretary identify current State practices that prohibit payment for HCACs and incorporate those practices or elements of those practices which she determines appropriate for application to the Medicaid program.

Information from the sections 413.65(b)(3) and (c) reports is needed to make these determinations. In addition, section 1866(b)(2) of the Act authorizes hospitals and other providers to impose deductible and coinsurance charges for facility services, but does not allow such charges by facilities or organizations which are not providerbased. Implementation of this provision requires that CMS have information from the required reports, so it can determine which facilities are providerbased.
