Wage Index Upcoming Dates

On January 31, 2024, CMS will release the revised FY 2025 wage index and occupational mix files as Public Use Files (PUFs) on the CMS FY 2025 Wage Index webpage. The data is desk reviewed and verified by the MACs before publication. Files for each urban and rural area’s average hourly wages for the FYs 2024 (final) and 2025 (preliminary) wage indexes will be available on the CMS Wage Index webpage.

Once the data has been uploaded, providers will have until February 16, 2024, to submit requests for corrections to errors in the January PUFs due to CMS or MAC mishandling of the wage index data, or revisions of desk review adjustments as included in the January PUFs.
