United States Seventh Circuit
Univ. of Chicago Med. Ctr. v. Sebelius, 09-3429
In University of Chicago Medical Center's claim for $2.8 million in Medicare reimbursements for indirect medical education (IME), based on its total full-time equivalent residents (FTEs) for the 1996 fiscal year that reflected the time medical residents spent conducting educational research unrelated to the care of Medicare patients, a grant of summary judgment in favor of the hospital is affirmed as, pursuant to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the hospital should have received reimbursement as part of its IME adjustment for pure research in 1996.
