The provisions of this policy apply to the Same Specialty Physicians and Other Health Care Professionals, which includes DME, Prosthetic and Orthotic vendors, renting or selling DME, Prosthetics or Orthotics. For purposes of this policy, Same Specialty Physician or Other Health Care Professional is defined as physicians and/or other health care professionals of the same group and same specialty reporting the same Federal Tax Identification number (TIN). Refer to the UnitedHealthcare Community Plan "Maximum Frequency per Day" policy for additional information pertaining to reimbursement for physician claims submitted with multiple units for the same CPT or HCPCS code on the same date of service. Reimbursement Guidelines Rental or Purchase Modifiers Some DME items are eligible for rental as well as for purchase. The codes representing these items are listed in Modifier Required Code in the Attachments section below and must be reported with the appropriate rental or purchase modifier in order to be considered for reimbursement. Rental guidelines are explained further in the sections titled Monthly Rental and Daily Rental.

See Attachments section at end of policy for list. Monthly Rental Monthly Rental Monthly rental of DME, orthotics, or prosthetics identified by the applicable code with a rental modifier RR and/or modifiers KH, KI, KJ, KR, LL appended will be reimbursed once per Calendar Month to the Same Specialty Physician or Other Health Care Professional. A Calendar Month is the period of duration from a day of one month to the corresponding day of the next month (please see Definitions) and is determined based on the From date reported on the claim. If a code is submitted with modifier RR and/or modifiers KH, KI, KJ, KR, LL with units greater than 1, or multiple times during the same Calendar Month, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan will only reimburse one monthly rate per Calendar Month to the Same Specialty Physician or Other Health Care Professional except where noted below. Modifiers RT and LT An additional rental rate will be allowed in the same Calendar Month for codes with a rental modifier when both modifiers RT and LT are submitted for the same HCPCS code on separate lines. Modifiers RT and LT may be used to report an item for the right or left side of the body and convey that multiples of that item are being utilized. Backup Ventilator One additional rental rate will be allowed in the same Calendar Month for a backup ventilator reported with a rental modifier plus modifier TW (backup equipment), appended to HCPCS codes

4 E0450, E0460, E0461, E0463 or E0464. Codes with Extension/Flexion, Supination/Pronation, or Each in the Description Up to two rental rates will be allowed in the same Calendar Month for codes with "extension/flexion," "supination/pronation" or "each" in the description. These codes describe services where multiple devices may be reported. If these codes are reported with modifiers RT and LT and multiple units, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan will consider for separate reimbursement up to two units for each side for a total of up to four rental rates in the same Calendar Month. For additional information, refer to the Questions and Answers section, Q&A #4, and the Attachments section. Reporting Monthly Rental Monthly rental of DME, Orthotics, or Prosthetics should be reported on a 1500 Health Insurance Claim Form (a/k/a ) or its electronic equivalent or its successor form according to the National Uniform Billing Committee (NUBC) and the National Uniform Claim Committee (NUCC) guidelines. The appropriate HCPCS code and rental modifier are submitted with one unit for each Calendar Month time span. The rental initiation date is entered in the "From" field, and the end date in the "To" field. In the following example, the rental for HCPCS code E1130 (Standard wheelchair, fixed full-length arms, fixed or swing-away detachable footrests), is initiated on 1/10/2013, and the item is rented for 3 months. The claim should be submitted as follows: Code Modifier Units From Date To Date E1130 RR 1 1/10/2013 2/9/2013 E1130 RR 1 2/10/2013 3/9/2013 E1130 RR 1 3/10/2013 4/9/2013 E1130-RR reported with 3 units, a From Date of 1/10/2013 and a To Date of 4/9/2013 on one line will result in reimbursement of only 1 unit. Daily Rental UnitedHealthcare Community Plan will allow a daily rental for the following items to the Same Specialty Physician or Other Health Care Professional. HCPCS codes E0935 (Continuous passive motion exercise device for use on knee only), and E0936 (Continuous passive motion exercise device for use other than knee) are reimbursed on a daily basis consistent with CMS guidelines. The following HCPCS codes are also reimbursed on a daily basis: E0193, Powered air flotation bed (low air loss therapy) E0194, Air fluidized bed E0277, Powered pressure-reducing air mattress E0304, Hospital bed, extra heavy-duty, extra wide, with weight capacity greater than 600 pounds, with any type side rails, with mattress E0371, Nonpowered advanced pressure reducing overlay for mattress, standard mattress length and width E0372, Powered air overlay for mattress, standard mattress length and width E0373, Nonpowered advanced pressure reducing mattress E1639, Scale, each E2402, Negative pressure wound therapy electrical pump, stationary or portable

5 Rental to Purchase Rental fees from a single vendor are payable up to either the purchase price of an item or a maximum number of rental months, whichever is less. The maximum number of rental months for comparison to the purchase price varies according to the vendor s contract. Once the Rent-to-Purchase maximum (or Rental Cap) specified in the contract is reached, the item is considered purchased and is not reimbursable. Daily rental items may also be subject to rental limits, depending on the vendor s contract. These rental limits do not apply to oxygen equipment or to ventilators. The vendor is responsible for complying with all the terms of their contract with UnitedHealthcare Community Plan, including the provision that requires the vendor to stop billing for rental of items when the maximum rental amount for those items specified in their contract has been reached. Identification of whether the equipment was rented or purchased must be documented by the use of the applicable modifier referenced in the Rental or Purchase Modifiers section above. Maintenance and Service Fees The UnitedHealthcare Community Plan allows for reimbursement of maintenance and service once every six months to the Same Specialty Physician or Other Health Care Professional. The appropriate HCPCS code appended with modifier MS (maintenance/service fee) is required to identify such services. The Maintenance and Service modifier (MS) must be reported on a separate line in order to be considered for separate reimbursement from the rental or purchase of the equipment. Maintenance and Service includes the following: regular routine maintenance and performance checks as required to maintain the warranty or performance standards re-education compliance with alerts and recalls necessary supplies in accordance with the applicable agreement back-up equipment emergency availability and replacement equipment when out-of-service for repair. For the purposes of this policy, maintenance and servicing does not apply to Orthotics or Prosthetics. HCPCS Codes A9900, A9901 and L9900 Delivery, set-up and supplies are included in the payment rates associated with a DME, Orthotic, or Prosthetic item. They are not reimbursable services when submitted alone or with another service. Therefore, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan will not separately reimburse the following codes: A9900 (Miscellaneous DME supply, accessory, and/or service component of another HCPCS code) A9901 (DME delivery, set up, and/or dispensing service component of another HCPCS code) L9900 (Orthotic and prosthetic supply, accessory, and/or service component of another HCPCS L code) State Exceptions Arizona Arizona has separately designated code and modifier lists.

Physicians and/or other health care professionals of the same group and same specialty reporting the same Federal Tax Identification number. Questions and Answers 1 Q: Why is a rental month defined as a Calendar Month when months vary as to their number of days? A: The rationale for reimbursing rental once per Calendar Month rather than once per 30 day period is due to the fact that some months are less or greater than 30 days. Vendor billing trends indicate that rentals are reported on a cycle billing method; i.e., item dispensed on 1/9/13, and rented for 3 continuous months. Resulting bills will be submitted with 1/9/13 and 2/9/13 and 3/9/13 dates of

7 2 3 service. Q: How should monthly rental of DME items be reported? REIMBURSEMENT POLICY A: According to the National Uniform Billing Committee (NUBC) and the National Uniform Claim Committee (NUCC), monthly rental of an item should be reported on a single claim line with one unit and a single calendar month date span that is, for one month, enter the rental initiation date in the From field and the end date of that month s rental in the To field. Rental charges for multiple months should not be reported on the same line. If two claims are submitted that show From dates in the same month for the same item from the Same Specialty Physician or Other Health Care Professional, only one claim will be allowed and the second claim for the same month will not be covered. See the policy section titled Reporting Monthly Rental for an example of how to report more than one month s rental for the same item. Note that each line in the example has a From date in a different month. Q: Why does UnitedHealthcare Community Plan pay a full Calendar Month rental rate when modifier KR is used, which indicates the item is only rented for a partial Calendar Month? A: Regardless of whether the item is used for a full Calendar Month or only a few days within a Calendar Month, UnitedHealthcare's Community Plan contracted rental rates will be allowed once per Calendar Month to the same vendor. For example, E0202 (Phototherapy (bilirubin) light with photometer) is reported with modifier KR and 7 units to indicate the number of days it was used in a Calendar Month. Regardless of the number of days it is used within that Calendar Month, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan pays a single monthly rate to the same vendor and does not prorate the services to allow a daily rate. This is consistent with the terms of our participating agreements. The exceptions to the above are the items listed in the section titled Daily Rental. 4 Q: How should a vendor report a device that has been provided for extension and flexion on both sides of the body, e.g., code E1800 (Dynamic adjustable elbow extension/flexion device, includes soft interface material)? A: Because two devices were used on both sides of the body, it is appropriate to report this as E1800-RR-RT with two units for the right side, and E1800-RR-LT with two units for the left side.
