EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This final report summarizes the results of our review of the Health Care Financing Administration's (HCFA) proposal to change the methodology for reimbursing separately billable drugs under Medicare's end stage renal disease (ESRD) program. Our results indicated that dialysis facilities purchase separately billable drugs significantly below the average wholesale price.
