13 DSH/Court Decisions Allina Health Services Impact?? Reopening letters will continue to be issued for the Allina case Alegent Health Immanuel Medical Center Impact?? 13
14 DSH Payments and the ACA Medicare DSH is to be reduced by 75% beginning in FFY 2014 Each IPPS hospital receive a distribution from a pool based on its share of national uncompensated care. The pool is based on 75% of current spending less other reductions S-10 likely source of uncompensated care data 14
15 DSH Payments and the ACA Accumulation of Medicare DSH listings will likely continue to be a requirement Listings will remain subject to audit CMS has yet to provide Audit guidance related to the DSH calculation under the ACA 15
16 Audit and Reimbursement PSR Update
17 PSR Update PSR Negative Charge Issue Issue started when FISS implemented CR 6712 around April 2010 CR 6712 implemented Medically Unlikely Edits (MUEs) 51 MUE is an edit applied to claim lines that exceed a certain number of units 17
18 PSR Update FISS programming initially labeled the claim line charges as denied. The 51 MUE programming identified the claim line as non-covered and the charges were subtracted a second time from the claim line. Example: Covered Charges $500 Denied Charges ($500) 51MUE Non covered ($500) Total Covered ($500) in some cases may be zero 18
19 PSR Update FISS initially reported that 51 MUE affected only outpatient hospital claims with the following bill types; 13X -outpatient hospital 14X - outpatient hospital non-patient 85X outpatient CAH FISS fixed the problem on June 6, 2011 on a prospective basis TDL11363 required mass adjustments in July 2011 to fix claims on a retro basis for 13X,14X and 85X The FISS mass adjustment utility didn t work: it couldn t adjust negative charges 19
20 PSR Update CMS issued instruction in early 2012 that addresses settlement of affected cost reports Contractors should review any significant overpayments that may be due to the negative-charge issue and hold settlement PS&R Negative charges should be changed to zero on asfiled cost reports to avoid a fatal error BCBSA distributed PS&R reports showing negative charges for each provider in March 2012 to help determine materiality Hold impacted cost reports open until issue has been resolved 20
21 PSR Update FISS fixed all claims for TOBs 13X,14X and 85X in January 2013 FISS did notfix 12X (inpatient B) claims CMS instructed MACs to mass adjust the 12X claims (completed in January 2014) Contractors will begin settling cost reports previously on hold for this issue Settlements expected to be completed by April 2014 as long as no new developments occur 21
22 PSR Update Negative Other amounts in PS&R may be occurring due to adjustments for Medicare Advantage claims or with uncompensated DSH Issues are expected to be addressed in a PSR fix to be released in late January 2014 RAC adjustments for PIP providers to be addressed via a field on the PS&R summary Awaiting CMS instructions regarding this fix and the impact on cost report settlement Outlier-Sequestration Prior to October 7, 2013 FISS was reducing outlier amounts by 2% PS&R took this reduced amount and added back the sequestration adjustment so Outlier in PS&R would balance FISS changed logic, but PS&R did not thus amounts are no longer balancing 22
23 Audit and Reimbursement Wage Index 2015
24 Wage Index 2015 Desk reviews started November 21, 2013 Pension Defined Benefit Plan 100% Review Desk Reviews completed January 29, 2014 Submission of findings to CMS Revised FY2015 PUF released February 20, 2014 First of multiple PUF file postings 24

27 Audit and Reimbursement Bad Debts
28 Palmetto GBA Procedures Bad Debt List The provider must submit a bad debt list that at minimum contains all data required per CMS Exh. 2. The bad debt list must agree with the amount claimed on the cost report. Differences will result in adjustment or require an amended cost report. Proper listings not obtained/incomplete may result in overpayment demands via tentative settlement or adjustment during desk review or audit. Provide listings in electronic format (Excel preferred) 28
29 Palmetto GBA Procedures Bad Debt List (cont) The bad debt listing must contain the data elements listed. Patient name HIC number Dates of service Indigency status and Medicaid number, if applicable Date first bill sent to beneficiary Date Collection Efforts Ceased/Write-off date Medicare remittance advice date Deductible and/or coinsurance Total Medicare write-off Medicaid remittance advice date (non-exhibit 5 element) 29
30 Palmetto GBA Procedures Collection Effort Review of Collection Effort Review the sample files for: Collection efforts are documented Write-off date is at least 120 days from the date of the FIRST BILL or last patient payment. Payments made by patients will restartthe 120 day cycle! Date of first bill is within a reasonable time frame of discharge; document rationale for late billing 30
31 Palmetto GBA Procedures Collection Effort Date of First Bill Although there are no CMS prescribed timeframes by which providers must issue the first bill, the later of 90 days of discharge or 45 days after the remittance advice from the primary payer (notwithstanding extenuating circumstances) are parameters expressed by CMS as reasonable In addition to applying the above parameters, the Medicare contractor must review the provider s policy on billing to ensure that the provider is meeting its own requirements, and that billing is applied to all payer classes consistently 31
32 Palmetto GBA Procedures Collection Effort Review of Collection Effort Collection effort includes actions such as subsequent billings, collection letters and telephone calls or other contacts Collection effort may include using or threatening to use court action to obtain payment Collection effort is consistent between payer class Efforts must be genuine, not token 32
33 Palmetto GBA Procedures Collection Effort Non-Medicare Accounts Select 5 non-medicare bad debt accounts and review to ensure collection efforts are similar: Are there more letters and contacts for non-medicare? Is the language in the non-medicare letters more aggressive? Are non-medicare accounts forwarded to collection agencies while Medicare accounts are not? 33
34 Palmetto GBA Procedures Other Payers Were other payment sources adequately pursued? Medicare Secondary Payor Third Party Liability Remittance advices Patient Account History notes 34
35 Palmetto GBA Procedures Indigent Determination Indigent Determinations Patient s file must contain documentation of the method by which the patient was determined to be indigent. Patient s total resource analysis (asset test) Providers must use their customary methods for determining the indigence of Medicare patients; they cannot have a different resource and income analysis for determining the indigence of Medicare patients. Comparison of patient s income to the federal poverty guidelines is not sufficient Determination should be made at time of admission or shortly thereafter 35
36 Palmetto GBA Procedures Collection Agency Use of Collection Agency A bad debt cannot be claimed as worthless if it is referred to the collection agency for additional collection effort and has not been returned to the provider as uncollectible. The bad debt can be claimed after the collection agency has deleted accounts from the patient s credit bureau file, ceased their efforts and informed the provider that the account was uncollectible. Note: If the account was referred to the credit bureau by the provider and not the collection agency, the provider does not have to ensure the account is deleted from the credit bureau file before claiming the bad debt. 36
37 Palmetto GBA Procedures Collection Agency Review the provider s contract with the collection agency to ensure that it is not in conflict with Medicare guidelines. If the provider uses multiple collection agencies, ensure amounts are not referred to different collection agencies based on financial class. 37
38 Palmetto GBA Procedures Collection Agency Use of Collection Agency Obtain a copy of the collection agency report that should include Patient name Date placed with agency Amount placed with agency Current balance Date account was returned to the provider from agency Disallow the bad debt if the provider cannot supply documentation from the collection agency that the nonindigent account was turned over to the collection agency 38
39 Palmetto GBA Procedures Collection Agency Disallow bad debts if there is no clear evidence that the accounts were returned from collection. Disallow the bad debts if the provider does not furnish documentation from the collection agency to support that the accounts were deleted from the patient s credit bureau file by FYE. An affidavit is testimonial evidence and is generally not sufficient documentation. The provider is responsible for obtaining and maintaining documentation from the collection agency at the time the account is returned. Request account history transaction details. 39
40 Provider Responsibilities Submit a complete and accurate bad debt list that agrees with the amount on the cost report. Ensure that amounts on the bad debt list are only for unpaid deductible and coinsurance. Do not include coinsurance for Part B professional fees or fee based services. Ensure that claims for bad debts have been reduced by patient and third party payments. Ensure that claims previously reimbursed have not been claimed again. 40
41 Provider Responsibilities Ensure that the bad debt list does not have duplicate current year or prior year write-offs. Submit a bill to the patient or responsible party shortly after discharge. Bill the state Medicaid agency timely for dual eligible beneficiary claims. Maintain a copy of the Medicaid remittance advice. 41
42 Provider Responsibilities Maintain auditable records to support the collection efforts and/ or indigent determinations. Ensure indigent determination considers total resources, and is not based solely on income. Ensure collection agency maintains documentation of referral and request for removal of accounts from credit bureau files. Generally the transaction details (account history) list when the account was referred to the credit bureau and when it was deleted from the credit bureau file Do not claim Medicare bad debts until the collection agency returns the account to the provider as non collectible. 42
43 Provider Responsibilities Maintain documentation of verification of no estate for deceased patients. County records Probate court Provide listing of Medicare recoveries and maintain audit trail to document accumulation of Medicare recoveries. Respond timely to requests from the Medicare contractor for bad debt documentation. 43
44 Provider Responsibilities Ensure the bad debt can be completely documented before putting it on a bad debt listing. Unusual circumstances do arise; document efforts to obtain information in the patient file. Be Proactive, rather than Reactive; contact Palmetto GBA for guidance if you are unsure whether the bad debt can be claimed and if alternative documentation will be sufficient. 44
