Special Instructions II. Provider Preventable s Payment Policy and Instructions f Submission of POA Indicats f Primary and Secondary Diagnoses Effective July 1, 2012 Keystone First modified its payment policy with respect to Provider Preventable s (PPC) to comply with the Patient Protection and Affdable Care Act of 2010 (ACA). The ACA defines PPCs to include two distinct categies: Health Care Acquired s; and Other Provider-Preventable s. It is Keystone First s policy to deny payment f PPCs. Health Care Acquired s (HCAC) apply to Medicaid inpatient hospital settings only. An HCAC is defined as condition occurring in any inpatient hospital setting, identified currently in the future, as a hospital-acquired condition by the Secretary of Health and Human Services under Section 1886(d)(4)(D) of the Social Security Act. HCACs presently include the full list of Medicare s hospital acquired conditions, except f DVT/PE following total knee hip replacement in pediatric and obstetric patients. Other Provider-Preventable s (OPPC) is me broadly defined to include inpatient and outpatient settings. An OPPC is a condition occurring in any health care setting that: (i) is identified in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania State Medicaid Plan; (ii) has been found by the Commonwealth to be reasonably preventable through application of procedures suppted by evidence-based guidelines; (iii) has a negative consequence f the Member; (iv) can be discovered through an audit; and (v) includes, at a minimum, three existing Medicare National Coverage Determinations f OPPCs (surgery on the wrong patient, wrong surgery on a patient and wrong site surgery). F a list of PPCs f which Keystone First will not provide reimbursement, please refer to the Appendix of this Manual. Submitting Claims Involving a PPC In addition to broadening the definition of PPCs, the ACA requires pays to make pre-payment adjustments. That is, a PPC must be repted by the Provider at the time a claim is submitted. There are some circumstances under which a PPC adjustment will not be taken, will be lessened. F example: o No payment reduction will be imposed if the condition defined as a PPC f a particular patient existed pri to the initiation of treatment f that patient by the Provider. Please refer to the Repting a Present on Admission section f details. o Reductions in Provider payment may be limited to the extent that the identified PPC would otherwise result in an increase in payment; and Keystone First can reasonably isolate f nonpayment the ption of the payment directly related to treatment f, and related to the PPC. Practitioner/Dental Providers If a PPC occurs, Providers must rept the condition through the claims submission process. Note that this is required even if the Provider does not intend to submit a claim f reimbursement f the services. The requirement applies to Providers submitting claims on the CMS-1500 837-P fms, as well as and dental Providers billing via ADA claim fm 837D fmats. F professional service claims, please use the following claim type and fmat: Claim Type: Rept a PPC by billing the procedure of the service perfmed with the applicable modifier: PA (surgery, wrong body part); PB (Surgery, wrong patient) PC (wrong site surgery) in 24D of the CMS 1500 claim fm. Dental Providers must rept a PPC on the paper ADA claim fm using modifier PA, PB PC on the claim line, rept modifiers PA, PB PC in the remarks section claim note of a dental claim fm. 44

Special Instructions Claim Fmat: Rept the E diagnosis codes, such as E876.5, E876.6 E876.7 in field 21 [and/] field 24E of the CMS 1500 claim fm. Inpatient/Outpatient Facilities Providers submitting claims f facility fees must rept a PPC via the claim submission process. Note that this repting is required even if the Provider does not intend to submit a claim f reimbursement of the services. This requirement applies to Providers who bill inpatient outpatient services via UB-04 837I fmats. F Inpatient facilities When a PPC is not present on admission (POA) but is repted as a diagnosis associated with the hospitalization, the payment to the hospital will be reduced to reflect that the condition was hospital-acquired. When submitting a claim which includes treatment as a result of a PPC, facility providers are to include the appropriate ICD-9 diagnosis codes, including applicable external cause of injury E codes on the claim in field 67 A Q. Examples of ICD-9 and E diagnosis codes include: Wrong surgery on crect patient E876.5; Surgery on the wrong patient, E876.6; Surgery on wrong site E876.7 If, during an acute care hospitalization, a PPC causes the death of a patient, the claim should reflect the Patient Status Code 20 Expired. F per-diem percent of charge based hospital contracts, claims including a PPC must be submitted via paper claim with the patient s medical recd. These claims will be reviewed against the medical recd and payment adjusted accdingly. Claims with PPC will be denied if the medical recd is not submitted concurrent with the claim. All infmation, including the patient s medical recd and paper claim should be sent to: Medical Claim Review c/o Keystone First Health Plan PO Box 7304 London, KY 40742 F DRG-based hospital contracts, claims with a PPC will be adjudicated systematically, and payment will be adjusted based on exclusion of the PPC DRG. Facilities need not submit copies of medical recds f PPCs associated with this payment type. F Outpatient Providers Outpatient facility providers submitting a claim that includes treatment required because of a PPC must include the appropriate ICD-9 diagnosis codes, including applicable external cause of injury E codes on the claim in field 67 A Q. Examples of ICD-9 and E diagnosis codes include: Wrong surgery on crect patient E876.5; Surgery on the wrong patient, E876.6; and Surgery on wrong site E876.7. 45

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) The benefits of billing electronically include: Reduction of overhead and administrative costs. EDI eliminates the need f paper claim submission. It has also been proven to reduce claim re-wk (adjustments). Receipt of clearinghouse repts makes it easier to track the status of claims. Faster transaction time f claims submitted electronically. An EDI claim averages about 24 to 48 hours from the time it is sent to the time it is received. This enables providers to easily track their claims. Validation of data elements on the claim fm. By the time a claim is successfully received electronically, infmation needed f processing is present. This reduces the chance of data entry errs that occur when completing paper claim fms. All the same requirements f paper claim filing apply to electronic claim filing. Imptant: Please allow f nmal processing time befe resubmitting the claim either through EDI paper claim. This will reduce the possibility of your claim being rejected as a duplicate claim.

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Specific Data Recd Requirements Claims transmitted electronically must contain all the same data elements identified within the Claim Filing section of this booklet. Emdeon any other EDI clearinghouse vend may require additional data recd requirements. Electronic Claim Flow Description In der to send claims electronically to the Plan, all EDI claims must first be fwarded to Emdeon. This can be completed via a direct submission through another EDI clearinghouse vend. Once Emdeon receives the transmitted claims, the claim is validated f HIPAA compliance and the Plan s Payer Edits as described in Exhibit 99 at Emdeon. Claims not meeting the requirements are immediately rejected and sent back to the sender via an Emdeon err rept. The name of this rept can vary based upon the provider s contract with their intermediate EDI vend Emdeon. Accepted claims are passed to the Plan, and Emdeon returns an acceptance rept to the sender immediately. Claims fwarded to the Plan by Emdeon are immediately validated against provider and member eligibility recds. Claims that do not meet this requirement are rejected and sent back to Emdeon, which also fwards this rejection to its trading partner the intermediate EDI vend provider. Claims passing eligibility requirements are then passed to the claim processing queues. Claims are not considered as received under timely filing guidelines if rejected f missing invalid provider member data. Providers are responsible f verification of EDI claims receipts. Acknowledgements f accepted rejected claims received from Emdeon other contracted EDI software vends, must be reviewed and validated against transmittal recds daily. Since Emdeon returns acceptance repts directly to the sender, submitted claims not accepted by Emdeon are not transmitted to the Plan. Imptant: Rejected electronic claims may be resubmitted electronically once the err has been crected. Imptant: Emdeon will produce an Acceptance rept * and a R059 Plan Claim Status Rept** f its trading partner whether that is the EDI vend provider. Providers using Emdeon other clearinghouses and vends are responsible f arranging to have these repts fwarded to the appropriate billing open receivable departments. * An Acceptance rept verifies acceptance of each claim at Emdeon. ** A R059 Plan Claim Status Rept is a list of claims that passed Emdeon s validation edits. However, when the claims were submitted to the Plan, they encountered provider member eligibility edits.

Tips f Accurate Diagnosis Coding: How to Minimize Retrospective Chart Review What is the Risk Sce Adjustment Model? The Department of Human Services (DHS) utilizes medical encounter data supplied by Keystone First to evaluate disease severity and risk of increased medical expenditures. DHS employs the Chronic Illness and Disability Payment System (CDPS), a diagnostic classification system, to suppt health-based capitation payments to Keystone First. Accurate payments from DHS help us ensure that providers are reimbursed appropriately f services provided to our members. We must obtain health status documentation from the diagnoses contained in claims data. Why are retrospective chart reviews necessary? Although Keystone First captures infmation through claims data, certain diagnosis infmation is commonly contained in medical recds but is not repted via claim submission. Complete and accurate diagnosis coding will minimize the need f retrospective chart reviews. What is the significance of the ICD-9-CM Diagnosis code? International Classification of Diseases-9th Edition-Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) codes are identified as 3 to 5 digit codes used to describe the clinical reason f a patient s treatment and a description of the patient s medical condition diagnosis (rather than the service perfmed). Chronic diseases treated on an ongoing basis may be coded and repted as many times as the patient receives treatment and care f the condition(s). Do not code conditions that were previously treated and no longer exist. However, histy codes (V10-19) may be used as secondary codes if the histical condition family histy has an impact on current care influences treatment. Per the ICD-9-CM Official Guidelines f Coding and Repting (October, 1, 2010), providers must code all documented conditions that were present at time of the encounter/visit, and require affect patient care treatment management. Have you coded f all chronic conditions f the member? Examples of disease conditions that should always be considered and included on the submission of the claim if they coexist at the time of the visit: Amputation status Diabetes mellitus Multiple sclerosis Bipolar disder Dialysis status Paraplegia Cerebal vascular disease Drug/alcohol psychosis Quadriplegia COPD Drug/alcohol dependence Renal failure Chronic renal failure HIV/AIDS Schizophrenia Congestive heart failure Hypertension Simple chronic bronchitis CAD Lung, other severe cancers Tums and other cancers Depression Metastic cancer, acute leukemia (Prostate, breast, etc.) What are your responsibilities? Physicians must accurately rept the ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes to the highest level of specificity. F example, a diabetic with neuropathy should be repted with the following primary and secondary codes: o 250.60 Diabetes with neurological manifestations and 357.2 f diabetic polyneuropathy Accurate coding can be easily accomplished by keeping accurate and complete medical recd documentation. 57

Documentation Guidelines Repted diagnoses must be suppted with medical recd documentation. Acceptable documentation is clear; concise, consistent, complete, and legible. Physician Documentation Tips First list the ICD-9CM code f the diagnosis, condition, problem other reason f the encounter visit shown in the medical recd to be chiefly responsible f the services provided. Adhere to proper methods f appending (late entries) crecting inaccurate data entries, such as lab radiology results. Strike through, initial, and date. Do not obliterate. Use only standard abbreviations. Identify patient and date on each page of the recd. Ensure physician signature and credentials are on each date of service documented. Update physician superbills annually to reflect updated ICD-9CM coding changes, and the addition of new ICD-9CM codes. Physician Communication Tips When used, the SOAP note fmat can assist both the physician and recd reviewer/coder in identifying key documentation elements. SOAP stands f: Subjective: How the patients describe their problems illnesses. Objective: Data obtained from examinations, lab results, vital signs, etc. Assessment: Listing of the patient s current condition and status of all chronic conditions. Reflects how the objective data relate to the patient s acute problem. Plan: Next steps in diagnosing problem further, prescriptions, consultation referrals, patient education, and recommended time to return f follow-up. 58
