Contiguous area hospitals are out-of-state hospitals located less than 75 miles outside the Oregon border. Unless such hospitals have an agreement or contract with the Agency of Medical Assistance Programs (Agency) for specialized services, contiguous area out-of-state hospitals shall receive DRG reimbursement or billed charges whichever is less. The unit value for contiguous out-of-state hospitals shall be set at the final unit value for the 50th percentile of Oregon hospitals (see Inpatient Rate Calculations for Other Hospitals, DRG Rate Methodology OAR 410-125-0141 for the methodology). Contiguous area out-of-state hospitals are also eligible for cost outlier payments. No capital or medical education payments shall be made. The hospital shall receive a disproportionate share reimbursement if eligible (see OAR 410-125-0150).
