Benchmark: Medicare IRF Prospective Payment System Updates for FY 2025

Take this benchmark to assess how much you would benefit from taking the course on Medicare Program; Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Prospective Payment System (IRF PPS) for FY 2025. In a few minutes, you’ll gauge your readiness across five areas the rule reshapes: how payments are calculated, what’s changing in the wage index and rural adjustment, what the Quality Reporting Program (QRP) adds and removes, how equity-focused data affect care planning, and what compliance steps protect your revenue. You’ll come away with: a quick snapshot of where your understanding is solid or thin; a sense of the trade-offs (efficiency vs. equity, compliance vs. flexibility, transparency vs. risk selection); and a short list of topics to prioritize in the course—like case-mix documentation, EHR mapping for new data elements, budgeting for geographic changes, and strategies to avoid payment penalties. Use this as a pre-course diagnostic to target what matters most to your role and to turn the course into an actionable implementation plan.
