Under CMS 2370-F, are there circumstances in which the enhanced payment under section 1202 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will not be paid?

To the extent that physicians are already receiving payment for Medicaid services that is at least equal to the Medicare rate as required under section 1202 of the ACA, no additional payment under section 1202 should be made to either a managed care health plan or to a group practice or similar organization that employs physicians. The additional payment is to ensure that payment to the physician is at least equal to the 1202 Medicare rate.
