Description
This contract will provide analytical and programming support to CMS in replicating and updating RAND's analyses associated with the Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (IRF) patient classification system.

As an extension of this work, this contract will also provide analytical and programming support to CMS to develop new payment policy approaches affecting the IRF patient population, to assess the impact of Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) resident population changes, and to update the IRF and SNF grouper methodology programming.
