handle is hein.congrec/cbo3063 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE July 25, 2016 H.R. 5713 Sustaining Healthcare Integrity and Fair Treatment Act of 2016 As ordered reported by the House Committee on Ways and Means on July 13, 2016 SUMMARY H.R. 5713 would modify Medicare's payments to Long-Term Care Hospitals (LTCHs) and would prohibit Medicare from paying for items or services furnished by certain newly enrolled providers in select areas of the country. CBO estimates that enacting the bill would, on net, increase direct spending by $25 million over the 2017-2021 period but would have no net effect over the 2017-2026 period. Pay-as-you-go procedures apply because enacting the legislation would affect direct spending. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues. CBO estimates that enacting the legislation would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2027. H.R. 5713 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal governments. ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT The estimated budgetary effect of H.R. 5713 is shown in the following table. The costs of this legislation fall within budget functions 550 (health) and 570 (Medicare).
