Summary
The bill would amend Medicare's rules for the rural emergency hospital designation so a facility can qualify based on its status at any point between January 1, 2015, and a specified end date, rather than a single date, and specifies that eligibility is not affected by a change to the facility's national provider identification number from a change in ownership.
