Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The IPF PPS (Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Prospective Payment System) is Medicare's method of payment for services received by beneficiaries in inpatient psychiatric facilities, not Community Mental Health Centers (CMHCs). CMHCs are typically reimbursed through other mechanisms, such as the Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) or through state Medicaid programs, depending on the services provided.
