panel meeting and the transition to one
meeting of the panel per year (81 FR
31941).
II. Request for Nominations; Criteria for
Nominees
The Panel shall consist of a chair and
up to 15 members who are full-time
employees of hospitals, hospital
systems, or other Medicare providers
that are subject to the OPPS. For
supervision deliberations, the Panel
shall also include members that
represent the interests of Critical Access
Hospitals (CAHs), who advise the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS) only regarding the level
of supervision for hospital outpatient
therapeutic services. (For purposes of
the Panel, consultants or independent
contractors are not considered to be fulltime employees in these organizations.)
The HOP Panel currently consists of
13 panel members. Two additional
vacancies will occur in CY 2018. The
list of HOP Panel members is located in
the FACA database, Advisory Panel on
Hospital Outpatient Payment Committee
page, on the FACA database website at:
https://www.facadatabase.gov/
committee/committee.aspx?cid=
1791&aid=76.
Panel members serve on a voluntary
basis, without compensation, according
to an advance written agreement;
however, for the meetings, CMS
reimburses travel, meals, lodging, and
related expenses in accordance with
standard Government travel regulations.
CMS has a special interest in ensuring,
while taking into account the nominee
pool, that the Panel is diverse in all
respects of the following: Geography;
rural or urban practice; race, ethnicity,
sex, and disability; medical or technical
specialty; and type of hospital, hospital
health system, or other Medicare
provider subject to the OPPS.
Appointment to the HOP Panel shall be
made without discrimination on the
basis of age, race, ethnicity, gender,
sexual orientation, disability, and
cultural, religious, or socioeconomic
status.
Based upon either self-nominations or
nominations submitted by providers or
interested organizations, the Secretary,
or his or her designee, appoints new
members to the Panel from among those
candidates determined to have the
required expertise. New appointments
are made in a manner that ensures a
balanced membership under the FACA
guidelines. This notice requests
nominations for HOP Panel members on
a continuous basis. Nominations for a
person not serving on the committee
may be reconsidered as committee
vacancies arise, but should be updated

and resubmitted no later than 3 years
after the original nomination submittal
to continue to be considered for
committee vacancies. CMS will consider
the nominations submitted in response
to the notice published in the Federal
Register on December 23, 2016, entitled
‘‘Medicare Program; Renewal of the
Advisory Panel on Hospital Outpatient
Payment and Solicitation of
Nominations to the Advisory Panel on
Hospital Outpatient Payment’’ (81 FR
94378), unless they are withdrawn or
the nominees’ qualifications have
changed. Nominations will be
considered as vacancies occur.
The Panel must be balanced in its
membership in terms of the points of
view represented and the functions to
be performed. Each panel member must
be employed full-time by a hospital,
hospital system, or other Medicare
provider subject to payment under the
OPPS (except for the CAH members,
since CAHs are not paid under the
OPPS). All members must have
technical expertise to enable them to
participate fully in the Panel’s work.
Such expertise encompasses hospital
payment systems; hospital medical care
delivery systems; provider billing
systems; APC groups; Current
Procedural Terminology codes; and
alpha-numeric Health Care Common
Procedure Coding System codes; and
the use of, and payment for, drugs,
medical devices, and other services in
the outpatient setting, as well as other
forms of relevant expertise. For
supervision deliberations, the Panel
shall have members that represent the
interests of CAHs, who advise CMS only
regarding the level of supervision for
hospital outpatient therapeutic services.
It is not necessary for a nominee to
possess expertise in all of the areas
listed, but each must have a minimum
of 5 years of experience and currently
have full-time employment in his or her
area of expertise. Generally, members of
the Panel serve overlapping terms up to
4 years, based on the needs of the Panel
and contingent upon the rechartering of
the Panel. A member may serve after the
expiration of his or her term until a
successor has been sworn in.
Any interested person or organization
may nominate qualified individuals.
Self-nominations will also be accepted.
Each nomination must include the
following:
• Letter of Nomination stating the
reasons why the nominee should be
considered.
• Curriculum vitae or resume of the
nominee that includes an email address
where the nominee can be contacted.
• Written and signed statement from
the nominee that the nominee is willing

to serve on the Panel under the

• The hospital or hospital system
name and address, or CAH name and
address, as well as all Medicare hospital
and or Medicare CAH billing numbers
of the facility where the nominee is
employed.

I. Background
daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS) is responsible for
administering the Medicare and
Medicaid programs and coordination
and oversight of private health
insurance. Administration and oversight
of these programs involves the
following: (1) Furnishing information to
Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries,
health care providers, and the public;
and (2) maintaining effective
communications with CMS regional
offices, state governments, state
Medicaid agencies, state survey
agencies, various providers of health
care, all Medicare contractors that
process claims and pay bills, National
Association of Insurance Commissioners
(NAIC), health insurers, and other
stakeholders. To implement the various
statutes on which the programs are
based, we issue regulations under the
authority granted to the Secretary of the
Department of Health and Human
Services under sections 1102, 1871,
1902, and related provisions of the
Social Security Act (the Act) and Public
Health Service Act. We also issue
VerDate Sep<11>2014
20:14 Jan 25, 2018
Jkt 244001
various manuals, memoranda, and
statements necessary to administer and
oversee the programs efficiently.
Section 1871(c) of the Act requires
that we publish a list of all Medicare
manual instructions, interpretive rules,
statements of policy, and guidelines of
general applicability not issued as
regulations at least every 3 months in
the Federal Register.
II. Format for the Quarterly Issuance
Notices
This quarterly notice provides only
the specific updates that have occurred
in the 3-month period along with a
hyperlink to the full listing that is
available on the CMS website or the
appropriate data registries that are used
as our resources. This is the most
current up-to-date information and will
be available earlier than we publish our
quarterly notice. We believe the website
list provides more timely access for
beneficiaries, providers, and suppliers.
We also believe the website offers a
more convenient tool for the public to
find the full list of qualified providers
for these specific services and offers
more flexibility and ‘‘real time’’

assessing a website proves to be
difficult, the contact person listed can

addenda so that a reader may access the
subjects published during the quarter
covered by the notice to determine

Addendum 1: Medicare and Medicaid Manual Instructions
(October through December 2017)
The CMS Manual System is used by CMS program components,
partners, providers, contractors, Medicare Advantage organizations, and
State Survey Agencies to administer CMS programs. It offers day-to-day
operating instructions, policies, and procedures based on statutes and
regulations, guidelines, models, and directives. In 2003, we transformed the
CMS Program Manuals into a web user-friendly presentation and renamed
it the CMS Online Manual System.

How to Obtain Manuals
The Internet-only Manuals (IOMs) are a replica of the Agency's
official record copy. Paper-based manuals are CMS manuals that were
officially released in hardcopy. The majority of these manuals were
transferred into the Internet-only manual (10M) or retired. Pub 15-1, Pub
15-2 and Pub 45 are exceptions to this rule and are still active paper-based
manuals. The remaining paper-based manuals are for reference purposes
only. If you notice policy contained in the paper-based manuals that was
not transferred to the 10M, send a message via the CMS Feedback tool.
Those wishing to subscribe to old versions of CMS manuals should
contact the National Technical Information Service, Department of
Commerce, 5301 Shawnee Road, Alexandria, VA 22312 Telephone
(703-605-6050). You can download copies of the listed material free of
charge at: https://cms.gov/manuals.
How to Review Transmittals or Program Memoranda
Those wishing to review transmittals and program memoranda can
access this information at a local Federal Depository Library (FDL). Under
the FDL program, government publications are sent to approximately 1,400
designated libraries throughout the United States. Some FDLs may have
EN26JA18.017
arrangements to transfer material to a local library not designated as an
FDL. Contact any library to locate the nearest FDL. This information is
available at https://www.gpo.gov/libraries/
In addition, individuals may contact regional depository libraries
that receive and retain at least one copy of most federal government
publications, either in printed or microfilm form, for use by the general
public. These libraries provide reference services and interlibrary loans;
however, they are not sales outlets. Individuals may obtain information
about the location of the nearest regional depository library from any
library. CMS publication and transmittal numbers are shown in the listing
entitled Medicare and Medicaid Manual Instructions. To help FDLs locate
the materials, use the CMS publication and transmittal numbers. For
example, to find the manual for January 2018 Quarterly Average Sales
Price (ASP) Medicare Part B Drug Pricing Files and Revisions to Prior
Quarterly Pricing Files use (CMS-Pub. 100-04) Transmittal No. 3878.
Addendum I lists a unique CMS transmittal number for each
instruction in our manuals or program memoranda and its subject number.
A transmittal may consist of a single or multiple instruction(s). Often, it is
necessary to use information in a transmittal in conjunction with
information currently in the manual. For the purposes of this quarterly
notice, we list only the specific updates to the list of manual instructions
that have occurred in the 3-month period. This information is available on
our website at www.cms.gov/Manuals.

Addendum III: CMS Rulings
(October through December 2017)
CMS Rulings arc decisions of the Administrator that serve as
precedent final opinions and orders and statements of policy and
interpretation. They provide clarification and interpretation of complex or
ambiguous provisions of the law or regulations relating to Medicare,
Medicaid, Utilization and Quality Control Peer Review, private health
insurance, and related matters.
The rulings can be accessed at mq;.11 w ,, w. ~.:m~. t;uv 1f'-~:t;;m
title, the date the publication was issued, and the effective date of the
decision. An NCD is a determination by the Secretary for whether or not a
particular item or service is covered nationally under the Medicare Program
(title XVIII of the Act), but does not include a determination of the code, if
any, that is assigned to a particular covered item or service, or payment
determination for a particular covered item or service. The entries below
include information concerning completed decisions, as well as sections on
program and decision memoranda, which also announce decisions or, in
some cases, explain why it was not appropriate to issue an NCD.
Information on completed decisions as well as pending decisions has also
been posted on the CMS website. For the purposes of this quarterly notice,
we are providing only the specific updates that have occurred in the 3month period. This information is available at: www.cms.gov/medicarecoverage-database/. For questions or additional information, contact

Addendum V: FDA-Approved Category B Investigational Device
Exemptions (IDEs) (October through December 2017)
Addendum V includes listings of the FDA-approved
investigational device exemption (IDE) numbers that the FDA assigns. The
listings are organized according to the categories to which the devices are
assigned (that is, Category A or Category B), and identified by tl1e IDE
number. For the purposes of this quarterly notice, we list only the specific
updates to the Category BIDEs as of the ending date of the period covered

For questions or additional information, contact John Manlove (410-7866877).
Under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 360c) devices
fall into one of three classes. To assist CMS under this categorization
process, the FDA assigns one of two categories to each FDA-approved
investigational device exemption (IDE). Category A refers to experimental
IDEs, and Category B refers to non-experimental IDEs. To obtain more
infonnation about the classes or categories, please refer to the notice
published in the April21, 1997 Federal Register (62 FR 19328).

(October through December 2017)
All approval numbers are available to the public at Reginfo.gov.
Under the review process, approved information collection requests are
assigned Ol'v!B control numbers. A single control number may apply to
several related information collections. This information is available at
www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. For questions or additional
information, contact William Parham (410-786-4669).
Addendum VII: Medicare-Approved Carotid Stent Facilities,
(October through December 2017)
Addendum VII includes listings of Medicare-approved carotid
stent facilities. All facilities listed meet CMS standards for perforrning
carotid artery stenting for high risk patients. On March 17, 2005, we issued
our decision memorandum on carotid artery stenting. We determined that
carotid artery stenting with embolic protection is reasonable and necessary
only if performed in facilities that have been determined to be competent in
performing the evaluation, procedure, and follow-up necessary to ensure
optimal patient outcomes. We have created a list of minimum standards for
facilities modeled in part on professional society statements on competency.
All facilities must at least meet our standards in order to receive coverage
for carotid artery stenting for high risk patients. For the purposes of this
quarterly notice, we are providing only the specific updates that have
occurred in the 3-month period. This information is available at:
https://www. ems. gov/MedicareApprovedFacilitie/CASF/list. asp#TopOfPage

A provider can use either of two mechanisms to satisfy the data
reporting requirement. Patients may be enrolled either in an Investigational
Device Exemption trial studying ICDs as identified by the FDA or in the
ACC-NCDR ICD registry. Therefore, for a beneficiary to receive a
Medicare-covered ICD implantation for primary prevention, the beneficiary
must receive the scan in a facility that participates in the ACC-NCDR ICD
registry. The entire list of facilities that participate in the ACC-NCDR ICD
registry can be found at www.ncdr.com/webncdr/common
For the purposes of this quarterly notice, we are providing only the
specific updates that have occurred in the 3-month period. Tlris infonnation
is available by accessing our website and clicking on the link for the

Addendum IX: Active CMS Coverage-Related Guidance Documents
(October through December 2017)
CMS issued a guidance document on November 20, 2014 titled
"Guidance for the Public, Industcy, and CMS Staff: Coverage with
Evidence Development DocU111ent". Although CMS has several policy
vehicles relating to evidence development activities including the
investigational device exemption (IDE), the clinical trial policy, national
coverage determinations and local coverage determinations, this guidance
document is principally intended to help the public understand CMS' s
implementation of coverage with evidence development (CED) through the

American College of Cardiology's National Cardiovascular Data
Registry Sites (October through December 2017)
Addendum VIII includes a list of the American College of
Cardiology's National Cardiovascular Data Registry Sites. We cover
implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) for certain clinical
indications, as long as information about the procedures is reported to a
central registry. Detailed descriptions of the covered indications are
available in the NCD. In January 2005, CMS established the ICD
Abstraction Tool through the Quality Network Exchange (QNet) as a
temporary data collection mechanism. On October 27, 2005, CMS
announced that the American College of Cardiology's National
Cardiovascular Data Registry (ACC-NCDR) ICD Registry satisfies the data
reporting requirements in the NCD. Hospitals needed to transition to the
ACC-NCDR ICD Registry by April2006.
Effective January 27, 2005, to obtain reimbursement, Medicare
NCD policy requires that providers implanting ICDs for primary prevention
clinical indications (that is, patients without a history of cardiac arrest or
spontaneous arrhythmia) report data on each primary prevention ICD
procedure. Details of the clinical indications that are covered by Medicare
and their respective data reporting requirements arc available in the
Medicare NCD Manual, which is on the CMS website at

Addendum XI: National Oncologic PET Registry (NOPR)
(October through December 2017)
Addendum XI includes a listing of National Oncologic Positron
Emission Tomography Registry (NOPR) sites. We cover positron emission
tomography (PET) scans for particular oncologic indications when they are
performed in a facility that participates in the NOPR.
In January 2005, we issued our decision memorandum on positron
emission tomography (PET) scans, which stated that CMS would cover
PET scans for particular oncologic indications, as long as they were
performed in the context of a clinical study. We have since recognized the
National Oncologic PET Registry as one of these clinical studies.
Therefore, in order for a beneficiary to receive a Medicare-covered PET
scan, the beneficiary must receive the scan in a facility that participates in
the registry. There were no additions, deletions, or editorial changes to the
listing of National Oncologic Positron Emission Tomography Registry
(NOPR) in the 3-month period. This information is available at

Addendum XII: Medicare-Approved Ventricular Assist Device
(Destination Therapy) Facilities (October through December 2017)
Addendum XII includes a listing of Medicare-approved facilities
that receive coverage for ventricular assist devices (V ADs) used as
destination therapy. All facilities were required to meet our standards in
EN26JA18.027
order to receive coverage for VADs implanted as destination therapy. On
October 1, 2003, we issued our decision memorandum on VADs for the
clinical indication of destination therapy. We determined that V ADs used
as destination therapy are reasonable and necessary only if performed in
facilities that have been determined to have the experience and
infrastructure to ensure optimal patient outcomes. We established facility
standards and an application process. All facilities were required to meet
our standards in order to receive coverage for V ADs implanted as
destination therapy.
For the purposes of this quarterly notice, we are providing only the
specific updates to the list of Medicare-approved facilities that meet our
standards that have occurred in the 3-month period. This information is

I. Background
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is responsible
for administering the Medicare and Medicaid programs and coordination
and oversight of private health insurance. Administration and oversight
of these programs involves the following: (1) Furnishing information to
Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries, health care providers, and the
public; and (2) maintaining effective communications with CMS regional
offices, state governments, state Medicaid agencies, state survey
agencies, various providers of health care, all Medicare contractors
that process claims and pay bills, National Association of Insurance
Commissioners (NAIC), health insurers, and other stakeholders. To
implement the various statutes on which the programs are based, we
issue regulations under the authority granted to the Secretary of the
Department of Health and Human Services under sections 1102, 1871,
1902, and related provisions of the Social Security Act (the Act) and
Public Health Service Act. We also issue various manuals, memoranda,
and statements necessary to administer and oversee the programs
efficiently.
Section 1871(c) of the Act requires that we publish a list of all
Medicare manual instructions, interpretive rules, statements of policy,
and guidelines of general applicability not issued as regulations at
least every 3 months in the Federal Register.
II. Format for the Quarterly Issuance Notices
This quarterly notice provides only the specific updates that have
occurred in the 3-month period along with a hyperlink to the full
listing that is available on the CMS website or the appropriate data
registries that are used as our resources. This is the most current up-
to-date information and will be available earlier than we publish our
quarterly notice. We believe the website list provides more timely
access for beneficiaries, providers, and suppliers. We also believe the
website offers a more convenient tool for the public to find the full
list of qualified providers for these specific services and offers more
flexibility and ``real time'' accessibility. In addition, many of the
websites have listservs; that is, the public can subscribe and receive
immediate notification of any updates to the website. These listservs
avoid the need to check the website, as notification of updates is
automatic and sent to the subscriber as they occur. If assessing a
website proves to be difficult, the contact person listed can provide
information.
III. How to Use the Notice
This notice is organized into 15 addenda so that a reader may
access the subjects published during the quarter covered by the notice
to determine whether any are of particular interest. We expect this
notice to be used in concert with previously published notices. Those
unfamiliar with a description of our Medicare manuals should view the
manuals at https://www.cms.gov/manuals.
