Two New E/M Codes in 2016 for Prolonged ServicesTwo New E/M Codes in 2016 for Prolonged Services provided by the Clinical Staff supervised by the Physician or NPP in an Office Setting (POS 11)Codes 99415, 99416 are used when a prolonged evaluation and management (E/M) service is provided in the office or outpatient setting that involves prolonged clinical staff face-to-face time beyond the typical face-to-face time of the E/M service, as stated in the code description. The physician or qualified health care professional (NPP) is present to provide direct supervision of the clinical staff. This service is billed in addition to the designated E/M services and any other services provided at the same session as E/M services. The staff in the physician?s office must be an expense to the physician practice. Example: Education for a new medication, therapy, or options for care that go far beyond the time spent on the E/M by the physician, but that does not have to be provided by the physician.Prolonged Services99415: Prolonged clinical staff service (the service beyond the typical service time) during an evaluation and management service in the office or outpatient setting, direct patient contact with physician supervision; first hour (List separately in addition to code for outpatient Evaluation and Management service) (Use 99415 in conjunction with 99201, 99202, 99203, 99204, 99205, 99211, 99212, 99213, 99214, 99215) (Do not report 99415 in conjunction with 99354, 99355) 99416: each additional 30 minutes (List separately in addition to code for prolonged service) (Use 99416 in conjunction with 99415) Prolonged service of less than 45 minutes total duration on a given date is not separately reported because the clinical staff time involved is included in the E/M codes. Example: Prolonged clinical staff services for 99214 begin after 25 minutes, and 99415 is not reported until at least 70 minutes total face-to-face clinical staff time has been performed.When face-to-face time is non-contiguous, use only the face-to-face time provided to the patient by the clinical staff. Code 99416 is used to report each additional 30 minutes of prolonged clinical staff service beyond the first hour. Code 99416 may also be used to report the final 15-30 minutes of prolonged service on a given date. Prolonged service of less than 15 minutes beyond the first hour or less than 15 minutes beyond the final 30 minutes is not reported separately. Codes 99415, 99416 may be reported for no more than two simultaneous patients. Facilities may not report 99415, 99416. 99415 will be reimbursed by Medicare at $9.77 and 99416 will be reimbursed at $1.26. Please remember the time needs to be documented when prolonged service is billedEvaluation and Management (E/M) Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)Documentation:Question: Where are the documentation guidelines for what constitutes a face to face visit for a shared service between a physician and an NPP?Answer: Guidelines regarding split/shared visits can be found within the CMS Internet-only manual (IOM), Publication 100-04 Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 12, and Section 30 Question: Where can I find more information about evaluation and management?Answer: Additional information about evaluation and management can be found in the First Coast Service Option website.medicare. Key Components-History:Question: If my office uses an E/M questionnaire for the Past, Family and Social History (PFSH) and Review of Systems (ROS), is it mandatory that the physician sign and date the form?Answer: It is mandatory that the physician?s documentation clearly indicates that the forms have been reviewed by him/her, and that any follow-up on positive and pertinent negative responses is documented. Source medicare. Question: Can I document the most clinically relevant systems and then say "all other systems reviewed are negative" in order to qualify for a complete (10 system) ROS? Answer: This would be allowed if all other systems were, indeed, reviewed and are negative, and if a complete ROS is medically necessary. Source medicare. Question: Can I use the HPI elements to describe acute or chronic diseases? For example, if I say, ?The patient is here to be evaluated for severe HTN discovered two weeks ago?, would I get credit for two HPI elements (severity, duration)? Answer: Yes, credit would be given as indicated. Source medicare. Examination:Question: Do you use the numeric conversion for the 1995 E/M guidelines (i.e., problem focused exam: one system and/or body area, EPF exam: 2-4 organ systems and/or body areas, Detailed exam: 5-7 body areas and/or organ systems, Comprehensive: 8 organ systems)? Answer: The 1995 guidelines do not specify exact numbers -- problem focused implies one system/area, and only comprehensive has a numeric indication (8). Source medicare.Medical Decision MakingQuestion: Is prescription drug management enough to establish a moderate level of risk for medical decision-making? Answer: The assessment of risk of selecting diagnostic procedures and management options is based on the risk during and immediately following any procedures or treatment. The highest level of risk in any one category determines the overall risk. Source medicare.Question: In medical-decision making, how does one determine further work-up under ?number of diagnoses?? Answer: A key element of the medical-decision making category includes management decisions made by the physician to determine a diagnosis and treatment. Evidence of further work-up within documentation would include: indicating a problem is worsening/probable and/or listing possible management options, advice sought, referrals or consultations, and the initiation of or change in treatment. Source medicare.Question: Can I refer to someone else?s dictated note and get credit for those parts of the history I reviewed? Answer: Yes - review of ?old records? is part of the medical decision-making process. Source medicare.Genetic Counselors Billing ComplianceFor Medicare and Medicaid:?Incident to? billing enables certain categories of non-physician health care providers to bill through a supervising physician. Medicare permits this type of billing for the following non-physician practitioners: Clinical Psychologists, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, Clinical Nurse Specialists, Nurse Midwives, and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists. Genetic Counselors are not included, therefore cannot bill Medicare using "Incident to". For Third-Party Contracted Plans Who Reimburse Genetic Counseling Services Provided by Genetic Counselors, the following are the requirements:The attending physician must see and evaluate the patient - first visit, order and review tests based on the findings; Then order the genetic counseling (performed by the Genetic Counselor under direct supervision) and billed with the appropriate Evaluation and Management code under the physician?s name and provider number.

These services may be rendered in several facility settings including, POS 19, 21, 22, 23 and 11.These are time-based codes, therefore TIME must be documented.ACP services may be billed on the same day as other evaluation and management services, during the same service period as transitional care management or chronic care management services and within global surgical periods, with modifier - 24. They may also be provided during an annual wellness visit (AWV) when billed separately with modifier -33 (preventive services). When these services are provided as part of an AWV, the Medicare the Part B deductible and coinsurance will be waived; when provided separately from an AWV, patients will be responsible for standard Part B deductible and co-insurance. ACP services may not be billed on the same day as critical care services, including neonatal and pediatric critical care.Medical Policy NewsScanning computerized ophthalmic diagnostic imaging (SCODI)The Medicare policy for Scanning Computerized Ophthalmic Diagnostic Imaging (SCODI) was revised to add ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes H40.032 and H40.033 to the ?ICD-10 Codes that Support Medical Necessity? to support Current Procedural Terminology (CPT?) code 92132.

The major provisions of this final rule include clarifications around: the meaning of overpayment identification; the required lookback period for overpayment identification; and the methods available for reporting and returning identified overpayments to CMS. For additional information click and on OIG Issues Guidance Related to Free and Discounted Prescription Drugs Provided to Patients HHS Office of Inspector General (OIG) recently clarified its guidance related to the provision of free or discounted prescription drugs in two contexts:hospital discounts or waivers of self-administered drugs in outpatient settings, and charity patient assistance programs for specialty drugs. OIG Guidance on Hospital Discounts or Waivers of Self-Administered Drugs Dispensed in Outpatient SettingsIn a Policy Statement dated October 29, 2015, OIG clarifies that hospitals will not be subject to administrative sanctions for discounting or waiving amounts owed by Medicare patients for self-administered drugs (SADs) in outpatient settings. Medicare Part B covers drugs that are furnished ?incident to? a physician?s service provided that the drugs are not usually self-administered by the patients who take them; therefore, SADs are typically not covered by the Part B in outpatient settings, including SADs that may be covered under Medicare Part D provided that the hospital complies with the following:Hospitals cannot market or advertise the waivers or discounts; The exception applies only to discounts on, or waivers of, amounts Medicare patients owe for non-covered SADs that the patients receive for ingestion or administration in outpatient settings; Hospitals must uniformly apply their policies regarding discounts or waivers on non-covered SADs (e.g. without regard to a beneficiary?s diagnosis or type of treatment); and Hospitals must not claim the discounted or waived amounts as bad debt or otherwise shift the burden of these costs to the Medicare or Medicaid programs, or other payers, or individuals. It is important to note that OIG makes clear that its Policy Statement does not require hospitals to discount or waive amounts owed by Medicare patients for non-covered SADs received in outpatient settings.Medicare Finalizes New Joint Replacement Hospital Payment ModelThe Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a final rule implementing the Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) payment model for lower-extremity joint replacement (LEJR) episodes of care. The model is scheduled to start April 2016 for hospitals in 67 geographic areas. LEJR episodes will begin with a hospitalization and end 90 days-post discharge. Episodes will include Part A and B services with the exception of unrelated clinical care. Depending on the participant hospital?s quality and episode spending during a performance year, hospitals may retrospectively receive an additional payment from Medicare or be required to repay Medicare for a portion of the episode spending. All providers and suppliers will continue to be paid under the usual payment system rules and procedures of the Medicare program for services throughout a performance year. To learn more about CJR, view CMS' fact sheet 2016 Inpatient-Only ListInpatient-only procedures are those that CMS has determined providers must perform on an inpatient basis because they are invasive and require at least 24 hours of postoperative recovery time or monitoring. These procedures are also performed on patients with serious underlying conditions. The complete list of inpatient-only procedures is available in the OPPS final rule and is updated annually.

For more information click here.Qualified Clinical Trial Cost Types That Are Not Billable to Subjects or InsuranceThe following qualified clinical trial cost types cannot be billed to subjects or insurance, and must be paid by the study sponsor or covered by other appropriate funding source:Any item/service that is: promised free in the informed consentcustomarily provided by the research sponsor free of charge for any enrollee in the trial The investigational item/service that is the objective of the clinical trial unless it is otherwise covered outside the study or by other CMS coverage determination. Protocol activity/items/services that are not for the direct clinical safety and management of the subject at the time of the order (e.g., consent, inclusion/exclusion labs/imaging/services, research-only protocol activity, monthly CT scans for a condition usually requiring only a single scan). ???Regulatory ComplianceFalse Claims ActImposes civil liability on any person who knowingly submits, or causes to be submitted, a false or fraudulent claim to the Federal Government. Protects the Federal Government from being overcharged or sold substandard goods or services. Penalties may include imprisonment, exclusion from federal healthcare programs and fines of up to three times the amount of damages sustained by the Government as a result of the false claims plus $11,000 per claim filed. Fines add up quickly because each claim can be a separate ground for liability. Examples of possible false claims include someone knowingly billing Medicare for services that were not provided, or for services that were not ordered by a physician, or for services that were provided at sub-standard quality where the government would not pay. Another example of a false claim would be billing Medicare or Medicaid for services that are covered or paid for by a study or grant.
