In other words: Full Conversion Factor = Baseline OPPS conversion factor * (1 + OPD update factor) Reduced Conversion Factor = Baseline OPPS conversion factor * (1 + OPD update factor 0.02) Reporting Ratio = Reduced Conversion Factor/Full Conversion Factor Which is equivalent to: Reporting Ratio = (1 + OPD Update factor 0.02)/(1 + OPD update factor) In the CY 2009 OPPS/ASC final rule with comment period (73 FR 68771 through 68772), we established a policy that the Medicare beneficiary's minimum unadjusted copayment and national unadjusted copayment for a service to which a reduced national unadjusted payment rate applies would each equal the product of the reporting ratio and the national unadjusted copayment or the minimum unadjusted copayment, as applicable, for the service
