The bill prohibits the use of an inpatient-only list for designating hospital outpatient services under the Medicare program.

  • 42 U.S.C. 1395l(t)(1)

    ``(C) Prohibition on use of an inpatient-only list.--In designating outpatient hospital services pursuant to subparagraph (B)(i), the Secretary may not refuse to so designate such a service based solely on the Secretary's determination that such service may only be safely furnished in an inpatient setting.''.

    This addition prevents the Secretary from denying outpatient status to services solely because they are deemed to require inpatient care.
