Form CMS 2552-10 is used by hospitals participating in the Medicare program to report the health care costs to determine the amount of reimbursable costs for services rendered to Medicare beneficiaries.
Revising the Hospital and Hospital Health Care Complex Cost Report (MCR) -- prior to inclusion of the FORM CMS-339 -- to streamline data collection, clarify instructions and definitions, and eliminate obsolete worksheets decreased the burden.
Incorporating Provider Cost Report Reimbursement Questionnaire, FORM CMS-339, in the revised MCR increased the burden.
The net effect of changes to the MCR is an increase in the burden. See Supporting Statement for elaboration of the burden changes.
