RHC: AIR Payment Limit for CY 2022
From January 1-December 31, 2022, the Rural Health Clinic (RHC) Medicare payment limit per visit is $113.00. The national statutory payment limit per visit will increase each year from 2021 through 2028 for all RHCs, including independent RHCs and provider-based RHCs in a hospital with 50 or more beds. Beginning in 2029, we’ll update the payment limit per visit each year by the percentage increase in the Medicare economic index.
