| There is no FY 2019 GEMs file. As stated in the FY 2016 IPPS/LTCH PPS final rule (80 FR 49388), the GEMs have been updated on an annual basis as part of the ICD-10 Coordination and Maintenance Committee meetings process and will continue to be updated for approximately 3 years after ICD-10 is implemented. |
We made the GEMs files available for FY 2016, FY 2017 and FY 2018.
An announcement was also made at the September 2017 ICD-10 Coordination and Maintenance Committee meeting that FY 2018 would be the last GEMs file update.
HHS is committed to making its websites and documents accessible to the widest possible audience, including individuals with disabilities.
