The Balanced Budget Act (BBA) of 1997 (Public Law 105-33) required the creation of a prospective payment system for home health services. The Omnibus Consolidated and Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for 1999 (Public Law 105-277) established the effective date of the system, using dates of service on or after October 1, 2000.
