It also provides the updated fixed loss cost outlier threshold, cost-to-charge ratios, and the data necessary to update the Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 rates. This notice also announces there will be no future Federal Register notices published for the annual DRG updates, as all information included in this notice will now be published on the Defense Health Agency's official Web site found at http://www.health.mil. As a result, FY 2017 is the last year for publication of the DRG notice.
