Sumario:A design for a prospective payment system (PPS) for inpatient rehabilitation facilities that pay providers a predetermined, fixed price (per day, per episode, or per case).

A new assessment tool has been developed for PPS for rehabilitation facilities and this study provides an evaluation of it.
