Collaborative psychiatric consultation Faith Bauer, BCBSMN Andrea reported that DHS reviewed on two tracks as are for consulting physicians only. (See MN statutes.) Track 1, for 99499, need to include two additional providers in the guides Psychologist or Advance Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) certified in psychiatric mental health. This change can be done now with an effective date of 7/1/13. Track 2, DHS will have to change state plan coding for consulting psychiatrists and submit to federal for approval. State plan has 99499, with payment rates. Codes are not just for mental health services but also other services. After approval from feds, will change Will also look at primary care.

2 Recommendation: Add the following to the Coding Recommendation Grid with the intent to revise the MN Companion Guide in the next yearly update. Changes to the current guide in red. Effective 7/1/14. Chapter 12, Physician/Nonphysician Practitioners, Collaborative psychiatric consultation Coding for a consultation initiated by the primary care provider (MD, DO, NPP) to psychiatrist, psychologist or APRN for an opinion or advice regarding a patient should be reported using as follows: Primary Care HE AG Primary Care HE AG U4 (non-face-to-face) Primary Care HE AG U7 (by physician extender) Primary Care HE AG U4 U7 (non-face-to-face by physician extender) Consulting Psychologist or Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) certified in psychiatric mental health HE Consulting Psychologist or Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) certified in psychiatric mental health HE U4 (non-face-to-face) Consulting Psychiatrist HE AM Consulting Psychiatrist HE AM U4 (non-face-to-face) 5. Autism Early Intensive Intervention Benefit Andrea Agerlie, DHS 6. Modifier -25 on preventive medicine visits ( ) - JoAnne Wolf, Children s Physician Network Andrea suggested Close and re-open when decision made at DHS. TAG agreed to close at this time. Carolyn Larson noted that actions of the American Academy of Pediatrics last year caused the CCI policy to be temporary rescinded. However, the new effective date of the CCI policy is April 1, DHS must use the CCI edits. There is no current policy in the Companion Guide. Modifier-25 not addressed in companion guide. All payers accept the -25 modifier so this is not a compliance issue, it is a payment issue. Need to work directly with payers she s having problem with. Reporting is uniform and MCT view as payment issue because it is a CCI edit. Leave open for JoAnne s comments. 7. Issue Tracking Grid/Index 8. Doulas Shawnet Healy, DHS The original intent was to develop an index of issues discussed. The draft submitted by Judy Edward reflects what is sent to Executive. MCT will review both index drafts. Validate useful document to understand issue and status, easily updatable and searchable. If no, what suggestions to achieve the goal. Shawnet Healy volunteered to maintain the index. Doula services will be covered by DHS fee-for-service and managed care per MN statutes effective 7/1/14 (pending federal approval). Medical assistance will cover childbirth education and support service. Certified doula means continuous emotional and physical support throughout labor and birth, and intermittently during the prenatal and postpartum periods (subd. 4). MDH will send out SBAR to MCT. Visit our website at: 2
3 ALACE is no longer education doulas referred to another organization. DOMA is the primary education resource for doulas. SBAR pending but submitted to discuss because it is a new service and we need to discuss uniform billing method. Oregon has elected submission of the labor and delivery code. Oregon requires the service to be billed by the supervising physician. Discussion/questions: Claim type? Professional claim Provider number? Billed under the NPI of an enrolled provider. Doulas will not be enrolled. Place of service? Home Is this a package or bundle? Why can t it be bundled with OB/GYN or enrolled provider or certified nurse midwife? Doula should be able to charge for session with birth mother. Doula s has been doing their own private billing and receiving payment from the mother. No a global/ per session. It s the patient s choice. Will not allow duplication of services for doulas or lactation consultant (to assist postpartum). What is definition of a session? Per encounter/per day. The definition of the proposed code is per diem/per day. The session must be face-to-face. Suggested DHS define what per session means for doulas. Will their services be distinct? Yes, they will be separate from the normal OB/GYN care. Doula will have to maintain documentation of visits. Can the mother choose any doula? Yes; however, the doula must work with the primary practitioner. How will it look documentation-wise? Modifier to indicated doula service. Refer to DHS for documentation requirements. How will the doc or midwife know when doula has visited mother? The document should be shared with the primary practitioner. Is an MD s order required for doula services? No physician order is needed for a doula Will the services be audited? Yes Many provider contracting issues were discussed. From contracting standpoint, does the doula need to be identified? Has rate been established? How will doula bill partnership with that particular group? How will we know that doulas are linked with provider or how can association be confirmed? How will it work for doula s not connected with provider? What happens if OB/GYN or midwife does not want to work with that doula? Concern is that we have a lot of Everyday Miracles individual agencies are not tied to other organization may want to bill separately. How to have relationship with provider group or birth center? How will this cross-over to commercial? Will need amendments. Shawnet will send out to MCT. Shawnet will meet with doulas for additional information. Can now have larger discussion with code suggested; work with state plan. Possible coding was discussed. The following were initially proposed: S9445 patient education NEC; non-physician for antepartum and postpartum, usually about seven sessions); one to two for antepartum, two to four for postpartum, one for labor and Visit our website at: 3
4 delivery (NOTE: the numbers of sessions are not defined in the policy.) suggested for the doula service during labor and delivery. A modifier will be developed. Faith Bauer was not in favor of because this is a surgical code and additionally is subject to coding edits. Other possible codes to consider: unlisted E/M Unlisted special service, procedure or report 9. Family Planning Services Paula Bernini Feigal, Morning Star 10. Newborn Facility Service Fee Paula Bernini Feigal, Morning Star NOTE: Shawnet Healy sent the following information post meeting: In reviewing my folder on doulas I found that DHS assumed 30 hours of doula service per attended birth and this includes services rendered ante-partum, labor/delivery and post-partum. The fee range in the documentation is $16-$17 per hour. Would it make code selection easier to figure against a 30 hour criteria rather than session or per diem construct? Services are being denied for family planning services performed by qualified MHCP - MA patients seen by certified midwives. If listed as free-standing birth center per MHCP guideline the birth center is POS 25. POS 25 is the most appropriate code for place of service. Can bill professional services under POS 25 in companion guide? Based on guidelines 11 will not be appropriate. This is a payment and contract issue. Recommendation: Companion guide performing services under free-standing birth centers. Who s rendering the service? Because of the licensure of the facility (POS), the midwife cannot be paid for family planning services performed in a birthing center. (Tentative) POS 25 is correct based on MHCP requirements. Services provided in birth center. The codes recommended are room and board and is not allowed in a freestanding birthing center. The AUC did not determine that the revenue code. National standards (NUBC) that this type of bill is outpatient. Room and board (the nursery revenue code) is inpatient only. HCPCS codes are required with revenue code. This is noted in the Companion Guide and is part of the NUBC standards. Newborn care is specified in MN statutes (256D.0625 subd. 54. Recommendation: Add the following to the Coding Recommendation Grid with the intent to revise the 837I MN Companion Guide in the next yearly update. Changes to the current guide in red. Effective?. Freestanding Birth Centers (Not addressed in the Medicare Claims Processing Manual) Licensed birthing centers Medicare publishes limited billing information for free-standing birthing centers. Birth center means a facility licensed for the primary purpose of performing low-risk deliveries that is not a hospital or licensed as part of a hospital and where births are planned to occur away Visit our website at: 4
5 from the mother s usual residence following a low-risk pregnancy. See Minnesota Statutes, Sections and for more information. Low-risk deliveries, and services related to the delivery, performed in a free-standing birthing center should be reported on an 837I transaction including the following data: Type of Bill: 084x Special Facility Freestanding Birthing Center (NOTE: TOB 084x will be considered outpatient. HCPCS codes are required with submitted revenue codes.) Revenue Code: 0724 Birthing Center Note: Ancillary services and/or items relating to delivery or labor 0724 are included under this revenue code and should not be reported separately. HCPCS Code: Appropriate HCPCS code with revenue code 0724 for delivery HCPCS S4005 code with revenue code 0724 when labor does not result in delivery Appropriate HCPCS code with revenue code 0724 for newborn specific services Note: Professional services related to the mother s and newborn s cares are reported on the 837P only. 11.
