Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 21 / Thursday, February 2, 2017 / Notices
CMS’ August 22, 2016 final rule. For
FY17, the market basket is 2.7 percent.
Note: Medicare’s FY17 market basket
index adjusts according to hospitals’
compliance with quality data and
electronic health record meaningful use
submissions. These adjustments do not
apply to the TRICARE Program.
E. Outlier Payments
Since TRICARE does not include
capital payments in our DRG-based
payments (TRICARE reimburses
hospitals for their capital costs as
reported annually to the contractor on a
pass through basis), we will use the
fixed loss cost outlier threshold
calculated by CMS for paying cost
outliers in the absence of capital
prospective payments. For FY17, the
TRICARE fixed loss cost outlier
threshold is based on the sum of the
applicable DRG-based payment rate plus
any amounts payable for IDME plus a
fixed dollar amount. Thus, for FY17, in
order for a case to qualify for cost outlier
payments, the costs must exceed the
TRICARE DRG base payment rate (wage
adjusted) for the DRG plus the IDME
payment (if applicable) plus $21,710
(wage adjusted). The marginal cost
factor for cost outliers continues to be
80 percent.

F. National Operating Standard Cost as
a Share of Total Costs
The FY17 TRICARE National
Operating Standard Cost as a Share of
Total Costs (NOSCASTC) used in
calculating the cost outlier threshold is
0.921. TRICARE uses the same
methodology as CMS for calculating the
NOSCASTC; however, the variables are
different because TRICARE uses
national cost to charge ratios while CMS
uses hospital specific cost to charge
ratios.
G. IDME Adjustment
Passage of the Medical Modernization
Act of 2003 modified the formula
multipliers to be used in the calculation
of IDME adjustment factor. Since the
IDME formula used by TRICARE does
not include disproportionate share
hospitals, the variables in the formula
are different than Medicare’s; however,
the percentage reductions that will be
applied to Medicare’s formula will also
be applied to the TRICARE IDME
formula. The multiplier for the IDME
adjustment factor for TRICARE for FY17
is 1.02.
H. Cost to Charge Ratio
TRICARE uses a national Medicare
cost-to-charge ratio (CCR). For FY17, the
Medicare CCR used for the TRICARE
DRG-based payment system for acute
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:31 Feb 01, 2017
Jkt 241001
care hospitals and neonates will be
0.2541. This is based on a weighted
average of the hospital-specific
Medicare CCRs (weighted by the
number of Medicare discharges) after
excluding hospitals not subject to the
TRICARE DRG system (Sole Community
Hospitals, Indian Health Service
hospitals, and hospitals in Maryland).
The Medicare CCR is used to calculate
cost outlier payments, except for
children’s hospitals. The Medicare CCR
has been increased by a factor of 1.0065
to include an additional allowance for
bad debt. The 1.0065 factor reflects the
provisions of the Middle Class Tax
Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012. For
children’s hospital cost outliers, the
CCR used is 0.2760.
I. Pricing of Claims
The final rule published on May 21,
2014 (79 FR 29085) set forth all final
claims with discharge dates of October
1, 2014, or later and reimbursed under
the TRICARE DRG-Based payment
system, are to be priced using the rules,
weights and rates in effect on as of the
date of discharge. Prior to this, all final
claims were priced using the rules,
weights, and rates in effective as of the
date of admission.
J. Updated Rates and Weights
The updated rates and weights are
accessible through the Internet at https://
www.health.mil/rates. The
implementing regulations for the
TRICARE/CHAMPUS DRG-based
payment system are in 32 CFR part 199.

[Docket No. PF17–3–000]
Cheniere Midstream Holdings, Inc.;
Notice of Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Impact Statement for
the Planned Midcontinent Supply
Header Interstate Pipeline Project,
Request for Comments on
Environmental Issues, and Notice of
Public Scoping Sessions
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will prepare an
environmental impact statement (EIS)
that will discuss the environmental
impacts of the Midcontinent Supply
Header Interstate Pipeline Project
(MIDSHIP Project) involving
construction and operation of facilities
by Cheniere Midstream Holdings, Inc.
(Cheniere Midstream) in Kingfisher,
Canadian, Grady, Garvin, Stephens,
Carter, Johnston, and Bryan Counties,
Oklahoma and leased capacity on
existing pipeline infrastructure in
Oklahoma, Texas, and Louisiana. The
Commission will use this EIS in its
decision-making process to determine
whether the project is in the public
convenience and necessity.
This notice announces the opening of
the scoping process the Commission
will use to gather input from the public
and interested agencies on the project.
You can make a difference by providing
us with your specific comments or
concerns about the project. Your
comments should focus on the potential
environmental effects, reasonable
alternatives, and measures to avoid or

lessen environmental impacts. Your
input will help the Commission staff
determine what issues they need to
evaluate in the EIS. To ensure that your
comments are timely and properly
recorded, please send your comments so
that the Commission receives them in
Washington, DC on or before February
27, 2017.
If you sent comments on this project
to the Commission before the opening of
this docket on November 9, 2016, you
will need to file those comments in
Docket No. PF17–3–000 to ensure they
are considered as part of this
proceeding.
This notice is being sent to the
Commission’s current environmental
mailing list for this project. State and
local government representatives should
notify their constituents of this planned
project and encourage them to comment
on their areas of concern.
If you are a landowner receiving this
notice, a pipeline company
representative may contact you about
the acquisition of an easement to
construct, operate, and maintain the
planned facilities. The company would
seek to negotiate a mutually acceptable
agreement. However, if the Commission
approves the project, that approval
conveys with it the right of eminent
domain. Therefore, if easement
negotiations fail to produce an
agreement, the pipeline company could
initiate condemnation proceedings
where compensation would be
determined in accordance with state
law.
A fact sheet prepared by FERC
entitled ‘‘An Interstate Natural Gas
Facility on My Land? What Do I Need
to Know?’’ is available for viewing on
the FERC Web site (www.ferc.gov). This
fact sheet addresses a number of
typically asked questions, including the
use of eminent domain and how to
participate in the Commission’s
proceedings.
Public Participation
For your convenience, there are four
methods you can use to submit your
comments to the Commission. The
Commission will provide equal
consideration to all comments received,
whether filed in written form or
provided verbally. The Commission
encourages electronic filing of
comments and has expert staff available
to assist you at (202) 502–8258 or
