On Tuesday, May 23, 2023, CMS released the preliminary FY 2025 Worksheet S-3, Parts II and III wage index PUF. The FY 2025 IPPS wage index will be calculated based on Federal FY 2021 hospital cost reports; that is, cost reports with fiscal year begin (FYB) dates of on or after October 1, 2020 and on or before September 30, 2021. The FY 2021 wage data will be used in the development of the proposed FY 2025 wage index, to be published in the Federal Register in Spring, 2024. Hospitals must review the file to confirm the inclusion and accuracy of their wage index and occupational mix data. Hospitals may request revisions to their preliminary data.
