Background: The DEPO fee schedules are updated on an annual basis in accordance with statute and regulations. The update process for the DEPO fee schedule is located in 60, hapter 23 of the edicare laims Processing anual (Pub ). B. Policy: This recurring update notification provides specific instructions regarding the 2009 annual update for the DEPO fee schedule. Payment on a fee schedule basis is required for durable medical equipment (DE), prosthetic devices, orthotics, prosthetics, and surgical dressings by 1834(a), (h), and (i) of the ocial ecurity ct. Payment on a fee schedule basis is required for parenteral and enteral nutrition (PEN) by regulations contained at 42 F The Division of Data ystems (DD) is scheduled to electronically release the 2009 DEPO Fee chedule file (filename: U00.@BF12393.DEPO.T V1107) to the Pricing, Data nalysis and oding (PD) ontractor, DE s, /B s, and local Part B carriers via s mainframe telecommunication system on November 7, The DD is scheduled to release a separate 2009 DEPO Fee chedule file (filename: U00.@BF12393.DEPO.T V1114.F) to the /B s, intermediaries, regional home health intermediaries, ailroad etirement Board (B), ndian Health ervice, and United ine Workers on November 14, The fee schedule file is scheduled to be available through the homepage by November 14, 2008, for interested parties like the tate edicaid gencies and managed care organizations. The 2009 fee schedule for PEN is scheduled to be released to the PD and DE s in a separate file (filename: U00.@BF12393.PEN.Y09.V1107) on November 7, The following codes are being deleted from the HP effective January 1, 2009, and are therefore being removed from the DEPO fee schedule files: L5993 L5994 L5995 L7611 L7612 L7613 L7614 L7621 L7622 For new codes added to the HP on January 1, 2009, DEPO fee schedule amounts will be established as part of the July 2009 DEPO Fee chedule Update, when applicable. The DE s shall establish local fee schedule amounts to pay claims for the new codes from January 1, 2009 through June 30, Please note that the HP codes listed as new codes in this are not yet final and are subject to change. The new codes are not to be used for billing purposes until they are effective on January 1, 2009.

4 For gap-filling purposes, the 2008 deflation factors by payment category are: for Oxygen, for apped ental, for Prosthetics and Orthotics, for urgical Dressings, and for Parental and Enteral Nutrition. The fee schedule amounts for HP code K0672 (ddition to Lower Extremity Orthosis, emovable oft nterface, ll omponents, eplacement Only, Each) are added to the fee schedule file on January 1, 2009, and are effective for claims submitted with dates of service on or after January 1, HP code E2295 (anual wheelchair accessory, for pediatric size wheelchair, dynamic seating frame, allows coordinated movement of multiple positioning features) was added to the HP file on January 1, Due to the expected low volume of edicare claims, will not be establishing fee schedule amounts for this code. ontractors shall establish local fee schedule amounts to pay claims for code E2295. s part of this update, we are revising the fee schedule amounts for HP codes L3905, L3808 and L3806. n the July Quarterly Update for 2008 (transmittal 1516, #6022) the fees for these codes were revised in order to correct fee schedule calculation errors. However, upon further review has determined that the gap-filled fees originally established for codes L3905, L3808 and L3806 in 2006 and 2007, respectively, were calculated correctly in accordance with the fee schedule gap-filling process outlined in section 60.3 of chapter 23 of the edicare laims Processing nternet Only anual. Thus, the fees for codes L3905, L3808 and L3806 contained in this update revert back to the fee schedule amounts in place prior to the July 2008 fee schedule update. laims for the above codes with dates of service on or after July 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008 that have already been processed will not be adjusted to reflect the revised fee schedule amounts if they are submitted for adjustments Fee chedule Updates following the Enactment of PP ection 154(a)(2) of the edicare mprovements for Patients and Providers ct (PP) of 2008 mandates a fee schedule covered item update of -9.5% for 2009 for items included in ound 1 of the DEPO ompetitive Bidding Program. The reduction applies to items furnished on or after January 1, 2009, in any geographical area. Therefore, where applicable, items selected for competitive bidding in 2008 will receive a - 9.5% update for 2009 with the exception of HP codes E1392, K0738, E0441, E0442, E0443 and E0444. These 6 oxygen generating portable equipment (OGPE) and oxygen contents codes will receive a 0% update for 2009 as the fees for these items are not adjusted by the covered item update specified in 1834(a)(14), and therefore, are not reduced by the -9.5%, even though they are competitive bid items. Non-competitive bid items will receive a 5.0% covered item update for list of the HP codes that were selected for competitive bidding in 2008 and are subject to the - 9.5% covered item update for 2009 can be found in ttachment. new HP modifier was added to the HP on January 1, 2009, and is effective for claims with dates of service on or after January 1, 2009: KE Bid Under ound One of the DEPO ompetitive Bidding Program for use with Non- ompetitive Bid Base Equipment To accommodate the fee schedule updates required per the PP, we are adding the KE modifier to the fee schedule for all power mobility device (PD) accessory items selected for competitive bidding in 2008 as part of this update. The KE modifier is a pricing modifier that suppliers must use to identify when the same accessory HP code can be furnished in multiple competitive and non-competitive bidding product categories. For example, HP code E0981 Wheelchair ccessory, eat Upholstery, eplacement Only, Each can be used with both competitively bid standard and complex rehabilitative power wheelchairs (K0813 thru K0829 and K0835 thru K0864), as well as with non-competitively bid manual wheelchairs (K0001 thru K0009) or a miscellaneous power wheelchair (K0898). ll fee schedules for PD accessory codes with the KE modifier will receive a 5% covered item update for 2009, whereas the fee schedules for the PD accessory codes without the KE modifier will receive the PP-required 9.5% reduction for uppliers shall be

5 instructed that if a competitively bid PD accessory code is used with a competitively bid standard PD base code (K0813 thru K0829) or complex rehabilitative PD base code (K0835 thru K0864), claims for the PD accessory code should be submitted without the KE modifier. uppliers should bill the accessory code with the KE modifier when the accessory is used in conjunction with a non-competitively bid manual wheelchair (K0001 through K0009) or a miscellaneous PD (K0898). n the case of the complex rehabilitative only PD accessory code E2373 K, suppliers should bill for the replacement only of E2373 without the KE modifier, but with the K modifier when the accessory is used with a competitively bid complex rehabilitative PD base code (K0835 thru K0864). When the replacement only code E2373 is used with a non-competitively bid manual or miscellaneous wheelchair, suppliers should bill code E2373 without the K modifier, but with the KE modifier. For the aforementioned reasons, we are also adding the KE modifier to the fee schedule for the following competitively bid HP codes: 4636, 4637, 7000, and E0776. uppliers shall be instructed that if codes 4636 and 4637 are used in conjunction with a competitively bid walker code (E0130, E0135, E0140, E0141, E0143, E0144, E0147, E0148, and E0149), claims for the replacement handgrip (4636) or tip (4637) should be submitted without the KE modifier. uppliers should bill codes 4636 and 4637 with the KE modifier when the codes are used with non-competitively bid cane or crutch codes. Likewise, suppliers should bill the disposable canister code 7000 without the KE modifier when this code is used in conjunction with the competitively bid negative pressure wound therapy pump code E2402. When code 7000 is used with a noncompetitively bid respiratory or gastric suction pump, suppliers should bill code 7000 with the KE modifier. imilarly, when an V pole (E0776) is used in conjunction with competitively bid enteral nutrient codes (B4149, B4150, and B4152 thru B4155), suppliers should bill code E0776 with the B modifier, but without the KE modifier. When code E0776 is used with non-competitively bid parenteral nutrient codes, suppliers should bill code E0776 without the B modifier, but with the KE modifier. Further instruction on the use of the KE modifier with codes competitively bid in 2008 is available in ttachment B. Note: uppliers should not use the KE modifier on any claims for payment for items that were included under ound 1 such as an accessory for a standard power wheelchair. s part of this update, we are also adding the KL modifier to the fee schedule for the following diabetic supply HP codes: 4233, 4234, 4235, 4236, 4253, 4256, 4258, and s indicated in transmittal 1263 (July Quarterly Update for 2007 DEPO Fee chedule, change request 5641), suppliers began using the KL modifier as an informational modifier to identify diabetic supplies (HP codes , 4253, 4256, 4258 and 4259) furnished via mail order on or after July 1, Effective January 1, 2009, the KL modifier has been changed from an informational modifier to a pricing modifier in the HP file. uppliers must use the KL modifier on all claims for the aforementioned diabetic supply codes that are furnished via mail order to beneficiaries. The KL modifier is not used with diabetic supply codes that are not delivered to the beneficiary s residence and are obtained from local supplier storefronts. nappropriate use of a competitive bidding modifier on a competitive bidding claim is in violation of the law and may lead to claims denial and/or other corrective actions. The use of a competitive bidding modifier does not supersede existing edicare modifier use requirements for a particular code, but rather should be used in addition, as required National onthly Payment mounts for tationary Oxygen Equipment s part of this update, we are implementing the 2009 national monthly payment rates for stationary oxygen equipment (HP codes E0424, E0439, E1390 and E1391), effective for claims with dates of service on or after January 1, We are revising the fee schedule file to include the new national 2009 monthly payment rate of $ for stationary oxygen equipment. s required by statute, the payment rates must be adjusted on an annual basis, as necessary, to ensure budget neutrality of the addition of the new oxygen generating portable equipment (OGPE) class. The revised 2009 monthly payment rate of $ includes the 9.5% covered item reduction ascribed to items selected for competitive bidding in 2008 which was applied after the budget

6 neutrality calculation. The previously announced payment amount for 2009 of $ did not include the 9.5% reduction and assumed a higher shift to OGPE. s a result of the above adjustments, we are also revising the fee schedule amounts for HP codes E1405 and E1406 as part of this update. ince 1989, the fees for codes E1405 and E1406 have been established based on a combination of the edicare payment amounts for stationary oxygen equipment and nebulizer codes E0585 and E0570, respectively. Update to hapter 23, ections 60 of the edicare laims Processing anual has made refinements to the fee schedule update process so that fee schedule amounts are now added to the national DEPO fee schedule files on a semiannual basis. Previously, the national DEPO fee schedule files were updated on a quarterly basis (January, pril, July and October) with the January notification serving to update the fee schedule with the covered item update, as well as to implement fee schedule amounts for new permanent codes. Under the new schedule, the January update applies the covered item update to the fee schedule, adds fees for temporary codes added in the previous calendar year, and instructs contractors to calculate fees for the new permanent codes. The July update adds the fees for the permanent codes added January 1, makes any necessary fee corrections and provides instructions for contractors to calculate fees for temporary codes added during the year. pril and October updates to the fee schedule may be implemented when determines they are necessary. For new codes added to the HP file, the DE s shall establish local fee schedule amounts to pay claims for the new codes until national fee schedule amounts are added. This update revises hapter 23, section 60 of the edicare laims Processing anual to reflect the new fee schedule update process. Billing nstructions for Power Wheelchair Harness (HP code E2313) The pril Quarterly Update for the 2007 DEPO Fee chedule included instructions for suppliers to submit claims for the electronics necessary to upgrade from a non-expandable controller to an expandable controller at initial issue using HP code E2399. This instruction was intended as a temporary measure until a new code could be added to describe the electronics/cables/junction boxes used when upgrading from a non-expandable controller at initial issue. HP code E2313 (Power Wheelchair ccessory, Harness For Upgrade to Expandable ontroller, ncluding all Fasteners, onnectors and ounting Hardware, Each) was added to the HP effective January 1, 2008, for use in paying claims for the electronics furnished when upgrading from a non-expandable controller at initial issue. Hence, suppliers shall submit claims for the electronics provided at initial issue using HP code E2313 for dates of service on or after January 1, 2008, and shall no longer use code E2399 for submission of such items. laims submitted for the electronics necessary to upgrade from a non-expandable controller to an expandable controller using HP code E2399 are invalid and shall be denied as contractor/supplier responsibility. HP ode E0760 Per the local coverage decision for Osteogenesis timulators, the WF categories for HP code E0760 Osteogenesis stimulator, low intensity ultrasound, non-invasive are being revised to add WF category (59), N required, effective 1/1/07..
