The Form CMS-2552-10 cost report is
needed to determine a provider's reasonable costs incurred in
furnishing medical services to Medicare beneficiaries and
reimbursement due to or due from a provider.
While the burden per provider
has not changed, the overall hour burden has decreased due to a
decrease in the number of respondent by 14, from 6,171 to 6,157
hospitals. Additionally, the overall cost burden increased due to
the cost per response hourly rate increasing from $15 per hour to
$20 per hour.
