Title: Hospital Conditions of Participation: Requirements for Hospital Inpatient Psychiatric and Rehabilitation Units Excluded From the Prospective Payment System and LTCH Requirements (CMS-3177-P) 
Abstract: This rule proposes requirements for inpatient psychiatric units and inpatient rehabilitation facilities under the hospital conditons of participation (CoPs). This would allow accrediting organizations to deem these units as part of their hospital accreditation process providing a timely and cost effective survey and certification process under the CoPs. In addition, this rule would propose long term care hospital requirements mandated by the Medicare, Medicaid and SCHIP Extension Act of 2007.
