Abstract

This final rule changes the way we calculate interest on Medicare overpayments and underpayments to providers, suppliers, health maintenance organizations, competitive medical plans, and health care prepayment plans to be more reflective of current business practices. This change reduces the amount of interest assessed on overpayments and underpayments and simplifies the way the interest is calculated. This change in the way we calculate interest also applies to Medicare Secondary Payer debt.

TennCare--a failure of politics, not policy: a conversation with Gordon Bonnyman. Interview by Robert E. Hurley.

Gordon Bonnyman is the indefatigable advocate who has spent the past dozen years both championing and challenging TennCare, Tennessee's controversial Medicaid program. As the executive director of the Tennessee Justice Center, Bonnyman has advocated for TennCare during three gubernatorial administrations; this advocacy reached new levels of intensity in 2005, when Gov. Phil Bredesen introduced major cutbacks to the program. Bonnyman's prominent role in shaping TennCare and, according to some, stymieing changes to it publicly pitted him against Governor Bredesen in the battle to "save" TennCare.
