Creating Useful Resources for Your Hospital:

Relevant Industry Links

R-C Healthcare Management recommends two major resources for industry information.  You can obtain additional wage index data from these Web sites.

1. The CMS website contains Public Use Files (PUFs) that include the Worksheet S-3s submitted by hospitals nationwide and the resulting AHWs:

2. The other site we recommend is the Federal Register itself. The Federal Register is published daily at:

 http://www.gpoaccess.gov/fr/index.html

You can conduct a keyword search of the Federal Register under such topics as "Medicare" or "Wage Index."
