A part of the Federal Balanced Budget Act of 1997 required HCFA (now CMS) to create a new Medicare "Outpatient Prospective Payment System" (OPPS) for hospital outpatient services -analogous to the Medicare prospective payment system for hospital inpatients known as "Diagnosis Related Groups" or DRGs.
