Claims Processing/Submission Information Long Term Care Claims Web Claim Capabilities

Is the current claim for long term care room/board with the same date of service as a paid inpatient hospital stay claim?

Claims Processing/Submission Information Third Party Liability (TPL) Information Commercial/private insurance coverage other than Medicare or Medicaid under which the client may be covered Connecticut Medical Assistance Program is the payer of last resort Because of this, providers must investigate the possibility of clients having other insurance coverage and pursue payment prior to submitting their claim to HP Claims can potentially deny when a discrepancy in TPL data exists on the client s state profile A Third Party Liability Information Form should be sent to Health Management Systems (HMS), please reference chapter 5 for address information This form is available on the Information > Publications page of www.ctdssmap.com HMS will contact the insurance carrier and notify DSS of any discrepancy DSS will update client eligibility

Claims Processing/Submission Information TPL Information (cont.)

Ordering, Prescribing & Referring (OPR) Requirements & Edits

Ordering, Prescribing and Referring (OPR) Claim Edits Sections 6401 and 6501 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) mandate that ordering and referring providers who render services to HUSKY clients be enrolled in the Connecticut Medical Assistance Program (CMAP) The Department of Social Services (DSS) has implemented the following claim edits to validate that ordering and referring providers submitted on Institutional claims are enrolled in the CMAP 1035 - Referring provider not enrolled on date of service 1036 - Ordering provider not enrolled on date of service 1038 Referring provider missing when required Edits 1035, 1036 & 1038 will be bypassed if the attending provider is present on the claim and enrolled on the date(s) of service

OPR (Ordering, Prescribing, and Referring) DSS strongly recommends that billing providers encourage their ordering, prescribing, and referring providers to enroll in the CMAP in order to avoid claim denials Any claims submitted with an ordering, prescribing, or referring provider ID that is not on file with the CMAP will be denied. An abbreviated version of the enrollment application is available for providers who wish to participate as an ordering, prescribing, or referring provider only

OPR (Ordering, Prescribing, and Referring) DSS has made available a list of enrolled providers who are eligible to order services on behalf of CMAP clients, or who may make referrals for such clients. Included in this list are providers who are currently in the process of enrolling in CMAP. The list is being made available to assist billing providers with verifying providers CMAP enrollment status relative to the OPR requirement. This list is refreshed each week.

Which providers must be enrolled? DSS has issued the following list of required provider types for Nursing Homes and State Agencies: Physician Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) Physician Assistant (PA) The aforementioned provider types must be enrolled in order for any services billed by the Nursing Facility or ICF/IID to get reimbursed when an attending or referring practitioner is present on the claim.

Provider Enrollment Clarification: Providers that are attending or referring and are employed or contracted by your organization must be enrolled in CMAP. When enrolling in CMAP, the provider must select the enrollment option of Individual practitioner or Employed/Contracted by an organization and not Ordering/Prescribing/Referring provider only The Ordering/Prescribing/Referring enrollment option is strictly for those providers who is not an Individual practitioner or affiliated with an organization

Enrollment of Residents

Enrollment of Residents The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires that ordering, prescribing and referring (OPR) providers who render services to HUSKY clients be enrolled with CT Medicaid Within their scope of practice residents frequently order or prescribe, therefore; they need to be enrolled in CMAP Providers may reference Provider Bulletin 2014-48 Enrollment Requirements of Residents if additional information is needed The NPI of the attending physician supervising the care of the patient should be submitted on the claim if the ordering, prescribing, referring provider is a resident, as resident physicians are not permitted to enroll in CMAP

ICD -10 Readiness

ICD-10 ICD-10 Changes Delayed ICD-10 Changes Delayed : On July 31, 2014 Health and Human Services (HHS) issued a rule (CMS-0043-F) finalizing October 1, 2015, as the new compliance date for health care providers and health plans to transition to ICD-10. The rule requires HIPAA covered entities to continue to use ICD-9 through September 30, 2015 https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2014/08/04/2014-18347/administrativesimplification-change-to-the-compliance-date-for-the-international-classification-of The transition to ICD-10 is required for all providers, payers and vendors On October 1, 2015, the ICD-9 CM code sets used to report medical diagnoses will be replaced by ICD-10 CM code sets

ICD-10 ICD-10-CM: The clinical modification diagnosis classification system was developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Center for Healthcare Statistics (NCHS) for use in all U.S. health care treatment settings. (The CM codes increase from 13,000 to 68,000-plus in the ICD-10-CM code set) ICD-10 codes must be used on all HIPAA transactions with dates of service (DOS) on or after the ICD-10 implementation date Do make it a point to refer to the ICD-10 Implementation Information Important Message from the home page of our Web site www.ctdssmap.com frequently to keep abreast with the most recent ICD-10 developments ICD-10 Testing will still be made available for all Long Term Care Providers - If you would like to become a beta tester, please e-mail the CMAP testing team at CTICD10testing@hp.com

Patient Liability

Patient Liability Patient Liability (Applied Income) represents the amount a client is responsible to contribute toward their care each month If a claim is submitted and the patient liability exceeds the Medicaid allowed amount an A/R (accounts receivable) is created for the difference Patient liability amounts are calculated and determined by the Department of Social Services (DSS) Regional offices based on the client s income (pension, SS, etc.) healthcare expenses

Patient Liability When a claim is recouped the system will take the patient liability by way of a recoupment. If the claim is resubmitted, the system will pay the claim and include the patient liability in the claim payment If the provider does not resubmit the claim and is seeking reimbursement for the patient liability by way of a payout, the DSS Convalescent Unit must be contacted Proof(general ledger, patient account ledger) must be provided illustrating that the money is owed to the provider, and not the client

Patient Liability Mass adjustments due to patient liability changes within clients profiles will occur as those amounts are often retroactively changed by DSS. Changes do not require claim adjustments to be performed by providers Patient liability Mass adjustments are processed the first cycle of every month; appear on RA with an ICN region code 53 Claims will be automatically adjusted by HP and the necessary A/Rs and reimbursements will be generated

Hospice

Hospice A hospice benefit was made available to CT Medical Assistance Program Medicaid clients effective January 1, 2010 This benefit provides compassionate end-of-life care that includes medical and supportive services intended to provide comfort to an individual whose physician certifies that they are terminally ill (i.e. having a life expectancy of six months or less if the illness runs its normal course)

Hospice Eligibility and Billing When is a client eligible to receive the hospice benefit? A client in a Nursing Facility or ICF/IID may elect the hospice benefit Hospice Services are a covered service for all HUSKY A, HUSKY B, HUSKY C & HUSKY D clients To secure accurate reimbursement: Hospice clients may only be admitted to those facilities with which the hospice agency has a written agreement A client who resides in a Nursing Facility or ICF/IID must be authorized with a pay start of the institution in which they reside The Hospice agency submits the Nursing Facility or ICF/IID per diem rate charges directly to HP for hospice clients Long term care providers may bill the Department of Social Services for hospital and home leave days for a hospice client (RCCs 183, 185) Room and board charges are billed by and payable to the hospice agency only: Facility charges are paid to the hospice agency who in turn reimburses the facility at the rate agreed to in the written agreement between the hospice and Nursing Facility or ICF/IID If a long term care provider bills a revenue center code (RCC) 100 for a hospice client the claim will deny with an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) code 0704 Service not covered for hospice client

Hospice Patient Liability Patient liability is deducted from the first claim processed for the month in which patient liability is due If a client is in the hospital: Hospice agency submits claims for the client s care Nursing Facility or ICF/IID submits a claim for client s bed reserve Patient liability is deducted from the first claim that processes; at the header of the claim, not the detail Hospice agency and Nursing Facility or ICF/IID providers need to make arrangements to reconcile patient liability
