Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, issued late on May 29, 2009 proposed regulatory changes regarding Medicare reimbursement for long-term acute care hospitals.CMS issued an interim final rule in which CMS is revising the relative payment weights that would apply to all discharges occurring between June 1, 2009 and September 30, 2009.

Based on our analysis of the new rules,consider sell on entire remaining position on HMA right here around $6.08 and on THC around $3.77.

Our average cost on HMA is $1.38 and $1.11 on THC. These have turned out to be great trades.
