2 Introduction This section covers Medicaid transportation services provided by the following provider specialties. It addresses the following. Ambulance transportation by land (emergency or non-emergency) Ambulance transportation by air (emergency) Ambulance transportation by water (emergency or non-emergency) It also addresses the following processes. Co-payments Claims payment Prior authorization (PA) procedures Reconsideration requests and the appeals process Non-Emergency Record Keeping Requirements All transportation providers must enter into a Medicaid provider agreement and maintain the following records for a minimum of five years. Prior authorization documents Name and Medicaid ID number of the member Date, time, and geographical point of pick-up for each member trip Date, time, and geographical point of drop-off for each member trip Identification of the vehicle(s) and driver(s) transporting each member on each trip, and the total miles for the trip 1.2. Ambulance 1.3. Non-Emergent Transportation (NET) Non-emergent transportation (NET) is a ride provided so that a Medicaid member with no other transportation resources can be transported to receive Medicaid covered services. Non-emergent transportation does not include emergency transportation, such as ambulance trips to the emergency room in life threatening situations. Only the least expensive, most appropriate means of transportation will be authorized. Other necessary transportation related expenses may be authorized, such as meals (only exception - an overnight stay is required for travel), lodging, and medically necessary attendants for a Medicaid member to receive covered medical care or treatment. The Department of Health and Welfare (DHW) will not pay for transportation, lodging, or meals when those services are available and provided at no cost by family, friends, or organizations such as Red Cross, Easter Seal Society, Cancer Society, fraternal and church organizations, Ronald McDonald Houses, and other private or social agencies Freedom of Choice Members are allowed freedom of choice to seek care from the Medicaid provider of their choice. However, transportation miles will not be authorized beyond the round trip distance to the closest and most appropriate provider. May 2010 Page 1 of 12
3 See IDAPA Medicaid Basic Plan Benefits, Sections 870 Non-Emergency Definition through Section 875 Non-Emergency Transportation Service Provider Reimbursement, for rules governing transportation and Medicaid covered services for further information. A copy of the current transportation rules is available online at A paper copy can also be obtained by contacting the Administrative Procedures office for the State of Idaho during normal business hours at (208) Member Eligibility Transportation providers are responsible for checking Medicaid eligibility for the Medicaid members they are transporting and that the medical provider to whom the member is transported is a participating Idaho Medicaid provider. See General Provider and Member Information, Verifying Member Eligibility, for more information Criminal History Check Requirements The requirements for criminal history checks are listed in IDAPA Mandatory Criminal History and Background Check Requirements. Commercial Non-Emergency Transportation Providers must receive a criminal history clearance. The criminal history check requirements applicable to commercial non-emergency transportation providers are found in Section 874 of these rules. Non-Emergency transportation providers are required to have criminal history and background checks on their employees or contractors. All employees and contractors providing direct care services, or who have access to children or vulnerable adults, must register with DHW s Criminal History Unit, and receive an employer identification number. This must be done before criminal history and background applications can be processed Important Billing Instructions Dates of Service Dates of service must be within the Sunday through Saturday calendar week within a single detail line on the claim. The calendar week begins at 12:00 a.m. on Sunday and ends at 11:59 p.m. on Saturday. Consecutive dates of service that fall in one calendar week (Sunday through Saturday) can be billed on one claim detail line. Example A provider transports a member every day from Friday the 10 th to Tuesday the 14 th. Enter the date of service Friday the 10 th to Saturday the 11 th on the first detail line. Enter the date of service Sunday the 12 th to Tuesday the 14 th on the second detail line. Example A provider transports a member on the 10 th, 14 th, and 16 th. Enter each date on a separate detail line. May 2010 Page 2 of 12
4 Payment Medicaid transportation providers will be reimbursed at the current rate established by DHW or the actual cost of the service, whichever is less Long-Term Care Nursing Facilities Medicaid does not pay for local transportation to Medicaid covered services rendered to members who reside in a nursing home or intermediate care facility (for developmentally disabled)/ mentally retarded (ICF/MR). These transportation services are the responsibility of the facility. Medicaid may pay for necessary transportation to Medicaid covered services for mileage over 50 miles round trip for residents in long-term care facilities. In this case, the facility must be enrolled as a Medicaid, agency transportation provider or they must use another Idaho Medicaid transportation provider. This transportation must be prior authorized Prior Authorization (PA) All Emergency transportation services require authorization of payment from DHW (or its designee). Claims will not be paid unless the necessary PA was obtained prior to the transport. Non-medical waiver transportation services for developmental disabilities (DD), aged and disabled (A&D), and traumatic brain injury (TBI) require PA Obtaining Prior Authorization (PA) Follow these procedures to request a PA for non-emergent transportation. Make the request a minimum of 24 hours before any scheduled appointment time. o Allow for weekends and state holidays. Identify the Medicaid covered service. Calculate one-way miles and cost per unit, prior to the request. Use the DHW standardized Medicaid Non-Emergent Transportation Request form available online at Health PAS-OnLine or as paper copies by request from Provider Services. After a request for PA has been submitted to DHWs authorizing agent or designee, DHW will initiate a Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits to the member and the transportation provider indicating which procedures are authorized or denied. The procedure codes authorized on the notice must match the procedure codes billed on the claim form. The PA number is required in box 23 of the CMS-1500 claim form or in the PA field of the electronic claim form. Electronic and Paper claims PA numbers need to be entered at detail level in order for claims to be paid. To submit a PA request mail to Division of Medicaid Non-Emergent Transportation PO Box Boise, ID Fax: (208) May 2010 Page 3 of 12
5 For DD and Mental Health (MH) related requests call (208) (800) x 1172 (toll free) Fax: or (800) All other non-emergent medical and out-of-state transportation requests call (208) (800) x 1173 (toll free) Fax: or (800) Form Available The Transportation Request form is available online at Health PAS-OnLine or as paper copies by request from Provider Services Requests for Reconsideration Providers may request a reconsideration of a PA decision made by IDHW, by following these steps. Step 1 Carefully examine the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits to ensure that the requested services and procedure codes were actually denied. Occasionally a requested service/procedure code has been denied and the appropriate service/procedure code was actually approved on the next line in the notice. Step 2 If you disagree with the DHW decision, you can complete a written Request for Reconsideration, which is found on the second page of the Notice of Decision. Include any additional extenuating circumstances and specific information that will assist the authorizing agent in the reconsideration review. Attach a copy (front and back) of the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits. Step 3 Submit the written request directly to MT within 28 calendar days of the mailing date, on the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits. Medicaid transportation will review the additional information and return a second Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits to the requestor within five working days of receipt of the provider s Request for Reconsideration. If the reconsidered decision is still contested, the provider may then submit a written request for a contested case hearing. Medicaid consumers may request a fair hearing. The Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits includes instructions for providers and members to file a contested case or fair hearing. Step 4 Maintain copies (front and back) of all documents in your records for a period of five years Request for Hearing Step 1 Prepare a written request for a hearing which must include A copy of the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits on which the provider requested the reconsideration. A copy of the Request for Reconsideration letter from MT, which upheld the denial. May 2010 Page 4 of 12
6 Copies of any additional supporting documentation which should be considered at a hearing. Step 2 Mail or fax the information to Idaho Department of Health and Welfare Hearings, Medicaid Transportation PO Box Boise, ID Fax (208) Medicaid Transportation (MT) will submit all documentation to the hearing officer who will schedule a hearing. Contact MT with any questions about the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits, the reconsideration decision, or the appeal process Ambulance (Non-Hospital Based) Transportation Service Policy Overview Ambulance services are payable by Medicaid only if used in the event of a medical emergency or after PA has been obtained from Medicaid Ambulance Review. Medicaid Ambulance Review manages ambulance transportation services including PA of nonemergency ambulance transportation and medical review of emergency ambulance claims. Ambulance service must be medically necessary, as determined by Medicaid Ambulance Review, in order to be paid by Medicaid. See the Hospital Guidelines for more information Definition of Emergency Services Medical necessity is established when the member s condition is of such severity that use of any other mode of transport would endanger the member s life or health. An emergency exists when the severity of the medical situation is such that the usual PA procedures are not possible because the member requires immediate medical attention. See section Base Rate for Ambulances, for a description of ambulance levels of care Definition of Non-Emergency Service Medicaid defines a non-emergency ambulance service as scheduled ambulance transport, which is medically necessary due to the medical condition of the member, when any other form of transportation will place the member s life or health in serious jeopardy. This includes inter-facility transfers, nursing home to hospital transfers, and transfers to the member s home from the hospital. All scheduled, non-emergency ambulance transports must be approved prior to the transport. May 2010 Page 5 of 12
7 Co-Payment for Non-Emergency Use of Ambulance Idaho Medicaid implemented co-payment provisions of House Bill #663 passed by the 2006 Idaho legislature. Ambulance providers may bill Medicaid members a $3.00 (three dollar) co-payment for inappropriate ambulance service utilization when the following conditions are met. The Department of Health and Welfare determines that the Medicaid member s medical condition did not require emergency ambulance transportation. The Department of Health and Welfare determines that the Medicaid member is not exempt from making co-payments according to Federal statute. The Department of Health and Welfare will notify both the ambulance provider and the Medicaid member on the Notice of Decision letter when a member may be billed for a co-payment. Note Collection of the co-payment is at the discretion of the provider and is not required by Idaho Medicaid Licensing Requirements Medicaid ambulance service providers must hold a current license issued by the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Bureau and must comply with the rules governing EMS services. Ambulance services based outside the State of Idaho must hold a current license issued by that state s EMS licensing authority. Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Bureau (208) Fax (208) Billing Information Non-hospital based ambulance providers may bill electronically or on the CMS-1500 claim form. Forms are available from local form suppliers. Required attachments include third party payer Explanation of Benefits (EOB) for payments or denials Customary Fees Ambulance service charges to Medicaid cannot exceed the provider s charges to the public for the same service (usual and customary fee). Reimbursement for non-hospital based ambulance service is at the rate established by Idaho Medicaid. Transportation of nursing home or ICF/MR residents is the responsibility of the facility unless the medical condition of the member requires ambulance transport. All nonemergency ambulance transports must be prior authorized by Medicaid Ambulance Review Payment in Full The claimants certification, (reverse side of the CMS claim form) signed on each claim submitted for payment, indicates the Medicaid payment for the charges on that claim will be accepted as payment in full for the services rendered. The member is not responsible for the unpaid balance remaining on covered services, and should not be billed. May 2010 Page 6 of 12
8 Medicare Members If a member has Medicare coverage, the provider must first bill Medicare for services rendered. See General Billing Instructions, Third Party Recovery (TPR), for billing instructions Submitting Claims to Idaho Medicaid Providers must document the PA number on the claim form and submit the claim to Idaho Medicaid for payment. When billing electronically and paper, PA numbers must be entered at the detail level for each claim. The provider s claim must match the authorized services on the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits or the claim will be denied. Contact Medicaid Ambulance Review with questions, pertaining to the review of ambulance claims. Medicaid Transportation PO Box Boise, ID (208) Emergent Covered Services See CMS 1500 Instructions, Appendix O for covered services Air Ambulance Medicaid covers air ambulance services when one of the following occurs The point of pickup is inaccessible by a land vehicle. Great distances or other obstacles are involved in getting the member to the nearest appropriate facility and urgent medical care is needed. The member s condition and other circumstances necessitate the use of air ambulance. If ground ambulance services would suffice and be less costly, payment is based on the amount that would be paid for a ground ambulance. Air ambulance must be approved by Medicaid Ambulance Review in advance, except in emergency situations. Non-hospital based air ambulance services must be billed on the CMS-1500 claim form, using HCPCS codes. Only air ambulances that are owned or leased, and operated by a hospital are designated by Idaho Medicaid as hospital based. The services must be billed on a UB-04 claim form using revenue codes from the Hospital Guidelines Ground Ambulance Non hospital-based, ground ambulance services must be billed on a CMS-1500 claim form using HCPCS procedure codes. Ambulances that are owned or leased, and operated by a hospital are designated as hospital based. Those services must be billed on a UB-04 claim form using revenue codes found in the Hospital Guidelines. May 2010 Page 7 of 12
9 Base Rate for Ambulances Levels of Service Providers may report one of the following levels of service for transporting Medicaid members. Providers may also request payment for treat and release or respond and evaluate if the patient is not transported. The three levels of service are Basic Life Support (BLS) (emergency and non-emergency) Advanced Life Support (ALS) I (emergency and non-emergency) Ground specialty (above the level of Paramedic) ALS II (emergency and non-emergency) When reviewing and authorizing a particular level of service Medicaid Ambulance Review must consider if The requested level of service is equal to or below the level of EMS certification of the personnel providing care in the patient compartment of the vehicle. The certification level of the provider is documented on the patient care record. The type of care provided corresponds with the level of service requested. Each level of service corresponds with the Idaho Administrative Code acts and duties allowed for the pre-hospital care providers, as per IDAPA Pre-Hospital Advanced Life Support (ALS) Standards, available online at Separate fees are not allowed for components of Basic Life Support (BLS) or Advanced Life Support (ALS) care, such as starting IVs and administering oxygen. This includes all nondisposable equipment used in the treatment such as backboards, scoop stretchers, and cervical collars. Disposable (consumable) equipment and medications are included in the base rate payment for ground ambulance services and may not be billed separately. Basic Life Support (BLS) BLS includes all acts and duties that may be performed by a certified Emergency Medical Technician - Basic (EMT-B). The care may be provided by personnel with a higher level of certification (e.g., advanced EMT-A, EMT-paramedic, registered nurse), but if the care provided falls within the scope of practice for the EMT-B, the level of reimbursement is BLS. Common examples include patient assessment, bleeding control, spinal immobilization, the use of oxygen and splints. For a complete list of the skills and duties allowed for an EMT-B, refer to the Board of Medicine Rules for EMS personnel. For a complete list of the skills and duties allowed, refer to IDAPA Emergency Medical Services at Advanced Life Support (ALS) Level I (emergency and non-emergency) ALS Level I emergency and non-emergency includes the transportation by ambulance and the provision of at least one medically necessary ALS intervention or treatment. An ALS intervention is a procedure that is beyond the scope of practice of an EMT-B. Common examples include peripheral venous puncture, electrocardiogram (EKG) rhythm interpretation, and administration of various medications used in medical, respiratory, or behavioral emergencies. For a complete list of the skills and duties allowed, refer to IDAPA Emergency Medical Services at May 2010 Page 8 of 12
10 Advanced Life Support (ALS) Level II ALS Level II includes the transportation by ambulance and the medically necessary administration of at least three separate administrations of one or more medications by intravenous push/bolus or continuous infusion or one of the following medically necessary treatments. Manual defibrillation/cardioversion Endotracheal intubation Central venous line Cardiac pacing Chest decompression Surgical airway Intraosseous line Waiting Time and Extra Attendants Waiting time and extra attendants are not paid unless medically necessary and authorized by Medicaid Ambulance Review. Waiting time must be physician ordered Multiple Runs in One Day When the ambulance transports a member, returns to the base station, and transports the member a second time on the same date, two base rate payments and loaded mileage are allowed. Use modifier 76 on the second procedure code to prevent denials for duplicate claims. When the ambulance transports a member, the member is transferred to another facility, and the ambulance does not return to the base station, one base rate, waiting time, and loaded mileage are allowed Round Trip Medicaid allows round-trip charges when a hospitalized member is transported to another hospital to obtain specialized services not available at the original hospital, and the referral hospital is the nearest one that offers special services. Medicaid places restrictions on round-trip charges, depending on whether the ambulance returns to the base station between trips. When the ambulance does not return to base station, bill for one base rate, round-trip loaded miles, and waiting time (limited to one and one-half hours). When the ambulance does not wait but returns to the base station between trips, bill for two base rates and loaded round-trip mileage Physician in Attendance When a physician is in attendance, the documentation should justify the necessity and specialty type of the physician. The physician is responsible for the billing of their services Nursing Home Residents Ambulance services are covered only in an emergency situation or when prior authorized by Medicaid Ambulance Review. Payment for any non-covered, non-emergency service is the responsibility of the facility and ambulance providers may not bill Medicaid. May 2010 Page 9 of 12
11 Trips to Physician s Office Ambulance service from a member s home to a physician s office is not covered unless prior authorized by Medicaid Ambulance Review Treat and Release A treat and release payment may be authorized if the member is treated at the scene and not transported. Disposable supplies are included in the treat and release payment. Treat and release may be requested at the BLS or ALS level, depending on the treatment provided. See section Base Rate for Ambulances, for details on determining the appropriate level of service. Medicaid Ambulance Review may downgrade a claim to a treat and release payment if the member was transported but the transport is determined to not be medically necessary. No mileage will be paid Respond and Evaluate A respond and evaluate payment may be authorized if the ambulance responds to the scene and evaluates the member, but treatment or transport is not necessary. Medicaid Ambulance Review may downgrade a claim to a respond and evaluate payment if the member was transported, but the transport is determined to not be medically necessary. No mileage, supplies, nor other services will be paid in addition to payment for respond and evaluate. Contact Medicaid Ambulance Review at (208) (800) (toll free) Fax (208) or (800) Deceased Members Ambulance service for deceased members is covered when documented in the run sheet as follows If the member was pronounced dead after the ambulance was called but before pickup, a base rate will be allowed. If the member was pronounced dead while in route to or upon arrival at the hospital, a base rate and mileage will be allowed. If the member was pronounced dead by an authorized person before the ambulance was called, no payment will be made Ambulance Service Prior Authorization (PA) Overview All provider claims for ambulance services must be reviewed and authorized as medically necessary and appropriate by Medicaid Ambulance Review before Medicaid will reimburse the ambulance provider. Medicaid claims for ambulance services must include a PA number from Medicaid Ambulance Review, when submitted to Idaho Medicaid for payment. May 2010 Page 10 of 12
12 Non-Emergency Ambulance Transportation If non-emergency, scheduled travel by ambulance is medically necessary, PA is required before the transport occurs. PA is done by contacting Medicaid Ambulance Review prior to transport. For services that require PA, the PA number must be included on the claim or the claim will be denied. Examples of non-emergent ambulance transport may be from a hospital to a rehabilitation center or nursing home, or a bed-ridden member traveling from home to a scheduled medical appointment. A member s life and health must be in jeopardy if transported by any means other than ambulance to a scheduled destination Ambulance Procedure Codes All ambulance services by a non-hospital based ambulance should be billed on a CMS-1500 claim form or submitted electronically using the following HCPCS codes. It is not necessary to attach the run sheet to the claim. Payment for ambulance transport is for a one way trip in which the member is in the patient compartment of the vehicle, except when a round trip is authorized by Medicaid Ambulance Review Requests for Retrospective Review/Authorization To obtain a retrospective authorization for emergency services and transportation, fax or mail a copy of the completed claim form and patient care record to the Medicaid Ambulance Review. Attach a copy of the third party EOB if applicable. Upon receipt of the completed claim information The level of service requested by the provider is evaluated. The level of service billed cannot exceed the level of EMS certification unless the personnel providing care in the patient compartment have a higher level of certification than the ambulance license. The claim is evaluated for appropriate mileage. Disposable supplies are included in the base rate payment and may not be billed separately. Any potential denial or downgrade of the requested service is referred to an on-call emergency medicine physician for review prior to the denial or downgrade. An approved or denied decision is submitted to Idaho Medicaid and a Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits is generated to the member and the ambulance provider. The Notice of Decision will include a PA number procedure codes, dates of service, and number of units necessary for billing. Questions regarding Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits should be directed to Medicaid Ambulance Review at (208) (800) (toll free) Requests for Reconsideration (Appeals) Providers may appeal a PA decision made by DHW or its designee, by following these steps. Step 1 Carefully examine the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits to ensure that the service(s) and requested procedure code was actually denied. Occasionally a requested service/procedure code has been denied and the appropriate service/procedure code was actually approved on the next line in the notice. If the provider determines that an May 2010 Page 11 of 12
13 inappropriate denial of service has occurred, the next step is to submit a written Request for Reconsideration. Step 2 Prepare a written Request for Reconsideration, which includes any additional extenuating circumstances and specific information that will assist the authorizing agent in the reconsideration review. Step 3 Submit the written request directly to Medicaid Ambulance Review within 30 days of the date on the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits. Medicaid Ambulance Review will return a second Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits to the requestor within 30 days of receipt of the provider s Request for Reconsideration. If the reconsidered decision is still contested by the provider, the provider may then submit a written request for an appeal of the reconsideration review decision directly to DHW. A written appeal must be received within 28 days from the date on the Medicaid Ambulance Review reconsideration review decision, follow the steps below. Providers may fax all documentation but the fax must be followed with copies of original documents in the mail. Step 1 Prepare a written request for an appeal that includes Copy of the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits from Medicaid Ambulance Review. Copy of the Request for Reconsideration from the provider. Copy of the second Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits from Medicaid Ambulance Review showing that the Request for Reconsideration was performed. Explanation of why the Request for Reconsideration remains contested by the provider. Copies of all supporting documentation. Step 2 Mail the information to Hearings Coordinator Idaho Department of Health and Welfare/Administrative Procedures Section PO Box Boise, ID Fax: (208) Contact Medicaid Ambulance Review with any questions about the Notice of Decision for Medical Benefits, the reconsideration decision, or the appeal process.
