Determination of ?purchase,? ?rental only,? or ?capped rental? will be made and an expiration date for ?rental only? and ?capped rental? items will be assigned. This information will be indicated on the copy of the form DMS-679 that is returned to the provider from Utilization Review within 30 working days of receipt of the prior authorization request.

Prior authorization may only be approved for a maximum of six (6) months (180 days) for individuals of all ages. Within 30 working days before the end of currently prior authorized prosthetics services, the prosthetics provider must obtain a new prescription. If applicable, the provider must prepare and send a new Medical Equipment Request for Prior Authorization and Prescription Form (Form DMS-679), signed by the physician, to the Utilization Review Section.

The effective date of the prior authorization will be the date on which the beneficiary?s physician prescribed prosthetics services or the day following the last day of the previously prior authorized time period, whichever comes last.

Providers should note the following authorization process exception.

Prior authorization numbers for ?capped rental? items will be effective for the entire ?capped rental? time period of 15 months. Therefore, only one prior authorization number is needed.

A. Providers may use the one prior authorization number for billing of ?capped rental? items for all 15 months.
B. Previous prior authorization for an item will count toward the total 15-month period.
C. Providers must resubmit a request for prior authorization after the first 180 days.
D. Necessary information will be indicated on the copy of the form DMS-679 that is returned to the provider within 30 working days of receipt of the prior authorization request.
221.400 Denial of Prior Authorization Request

Denied requests will be returned to the provider within 30 working days of receipt of the prior authorization request, with the reason for denial indicated.

232.000 Specialized Wheelchair, Seating and Rehabilitative Equipment

Reimbursement for Repairs

Reimbursement for repairs of specialized wheelchairs will be the manufacturer?s list price for parts listed less 40% manual equipment (dealer discount), 30% power equipment (dealer discount), plus 35% (profit margin), plus labor billed by the unit (15 min. = 1 unit). A maximum of twenty (20) units (20 units = 5 hours of labor) per date of service is allowable. Any applicable pages from the manufacturer?s catalog and the manufacturer?s invoice for parts must be attached to the claim form.

Reimbursement for specialized wheelchair equipment, seating and rehab items requiring manual pricing is calculated using the manufacturer?s current published suggested retail price less 15%. Any applicable pages from the manufacturer?s catalog that reflect a description and the manufacturer?s current published suggested retail price must be attached to the claim.

A maximum of twenty (20) units (20 units = 5 hours of labor) per date of service is allowable. The manufacturer?s invoice must be attached to the repair claim for all parts.

Reimbursement for unlisted DME requiring manual pricing will be calculated using the manufacturer?s invoice price plus 10%. The manufacturer?s invoice must be attached to all repair claims.

236.000 Reimbursement for Repair of the Enteral Nutrition Pump

Reimbursement for repairs to the enteral nutrition infusion pump requires prior authorization. Repairs will be approved only on equipment purchased by Medicaid. Therefore, no repairs will be reimbursable prior to the equipment becoming the property of the Medicaid beneficiary.

Requests for prior authorization for enteral pump repairs must be mailed to the Utilization Review Section, Division of Medical Services (view or print Utilization Review Section contact information)on form DMS-679, titled Request for Prior Authorization and Prescription. (View or print form DMS-679 and instructions for completion.)

The repair invoice and the serial number of the equipment must accompany the prior authorization request form. Total repair costs to an infusion pump may not exceed $290.93. Medicaid will not reimburse for additional repairs to an infusion pump after the provider has billed repair invoices totaling $290.93. If the equipment is still not in proper working order after the provider has billed the Medicaid maximum allowed for repairs, the provider must supply the beneficiary with a new infusion pump and may bill either procedure code B9000 or B9002 after receiving prior authorization for the new piece of equipment.

237.000 Rate Appeal Process

A provider may request reconsideration of a program decision by writing to the Assistant Director, Division of Medial Services. The request must be received within 20 calendar days following the application of policy and/or procedure or the notification of the provider of its rate. Upon receipt of the request for review, the Assistant Director will determine the need for a program/provider conference and will contact the provider to arrange a conference if needed. Regardless of the program decision, the provider will be afforded the opportunity for a conference, if he or she so wishes, for a full explanation of the factors involved and the program decision. Following review of the matter, the Assistant Director will notify the provider of the action to be taken by the Division within 20 calendar days of receipt of the request for review or the date of the program/provider conference.

When the provider disagrees with the decision of the Assistant Director, Division of Medical Services, the provider may appeal the question to a standing rate review panel established by the Director of the Division of Medical Services. The rate review panel will include one member of the Division of Medical Services, a representative of the provider association and a member of the Department of Human Services (DHS) management staff, who will serve as chairperson.

The request for review by the rate review panel must be postmarked within 15 calendar days following the notification of the initial decision by the Assistant Director, Division of Medical Services. The rate review panel will meet to consider the question(s) within 15 calendar days after receipt of a request for such appeal. The panel will hear the question(s) and a recommendation will be submitted to the Director of the Division of Medical Services.

240.000BILLING PROCEDURES
241.000 Introduction to Billing

Prosthetics providers use the CMS-1500 form to bill the Arkansas Medicaid Program on paper for services provided to eligible Medicaid beneficiaries. Each claim may contain charges for only one beneficiary.

Section III of this manual contains information about Provider Electronic Solutions (PES) and other available options for electronic claim submission.

242.105 Payment Methodology

Arkansas Medicaid has several methods of payment for all items covered by the Program. The following is a breakdown of the methods.

A. Purchase items are equipment that is purchased for or purchased by an eligible Medicaid beneficiary. The equipment may be new or used.
B. Rental-only items are those items paid by Arkansas Medicaid to providers for an unspecified time period on an as-needed basis. The equipment may be new or used.
C. A capped rental item is equipment whose purchase price exceeds $150.00. The items may be new or used. The items are reimbursed utilizing a daily rental rate. Medicaid pays the daily rental rate not to exceed a fifteen- (15-) month rental maximum (455 days). A period of continuous use allows for periods of interruption up to 60 consecutive days. If the interruption is 60 or fewer consecutive days, a new 15-month rental period will not begin. If the interruption is more than 60 days, a new 15-month rental period will begin.
D. After the total cost of a capped rental item has been reimbursed by Medicaid, the item remains the property of the DME provider. For items that have reached a 15-month rental cap, claims will be paid for maintenance and servicing fees after six months have passed from the end of the final paid rental month or from the end of the period the item is no longer covered under the supplier?s or manufacturer?s warranty, whichever is later.
E. Providers may be reimbursed for capped rental and rental-only items if the equipment is used fewer than 30 consecutive days from the first day of rental. This ensure the provider of adequate reimbursement for equipment used fewer than 30 days.
F. A rent-to-purchase item is an item for which Arkansas Medicaid reimburses a provider for the Medicaid-established purchase price of the item. After reimbursement has reached the maximum allowed, the equipment will become the property of the Medicaid beneficiary. Reimbursement is only approved for new equipment.
G. Initial rental transactions are those for which equipment is used in a beneficiary?s home for fewer than 30 consecutive days. Initial rental transactions must not be used by the provider to bill a month in advance. Arkansas Medicaid will only pay after services are rendered. An example of an initial rental transaction is that of a hospital bed delivered on July 2 and removed from the home after 10 days.
H. Manually priced items are those for which Arkansas Medicaid pays the manufacturer?s invoice price plus 10 percent. The provider must attach the invoice with their claim for services rendered.
I. A used item is any item that has been rented for 90 days or longer by anyone prior to the current Medicaid ?rental only? or capped rental? transaction. The provider must maintain documentation that certifies a used item is reconditioned and in good working order and has no defect in workmanship or material.
J. Repair of a ?rental only? item is covered in the rental fee. Repair of ?purchased? items is covered separately. Total (cumulative) repair costs must not exceed 50% of the item?s total purchase cost.

XMTVI Maximaid

One unit of service equals 100 calories with a maximum of 30 units per day reimbursable. Supplies provided in conjunction with the nutritional formula through the prosthetics programs must be billed under the prosthetics medical supply code. These formulae are covered as nutritional supplements rather than the sole source of nutrition.

NOTE: Beneficiaries who require enteral nutrition as the sole source of nutrition with the formulae being administered through a nasogastric, jejunostomy or gastrostomy tube should be referred to a hyperalimentation provider enrolled in the Medicaid Program.

Each claim should reflect a ?from? and ?through? date of service. The claims should not be filed until the ?through? date has elapsed. Claims may be submitted on either a weekly or monthly basis.

NOTE: If a specific formula is not listed but is the same as a formula listed, it may be billed using the procedure code for the comparable formula. It is the responsibility of the provider to prove comparability when audited.

Enteral Nutrition Infusion Pump

Reimbursement for the enteral nutrition infusion pump is based on a rent-to-purchase methodology. Each unit reimbursed by Medicaid will apply towards the purchase price established by Medicaid. Reimbursement will only be approved for new equipment. Used equipment will not be prior authorized. Codes B9000 and B9002 represent a new piece of equipment being reimbursed by Medicaid on the rent-to-purchase plan. Codes B9000 and B9002 are reimbursed on a per unit basis with 1 day equaling 1 unit of service per day. Medicaid will reimburse on the rent-to-purchase plan for a total of 304 units of service. After reimbursement has been made for 304 units, the equipment will become the property of the Medicaid beneficiary. Prior authorization is required for codes B9000 and B9002. The prior authorization request must include the serial number of the infusion pump being provided to the beneficiary.

See section 236.000 for reimbursement when the Medicaid Program is billed for repairs made to the enteral infusion pump.

242.193 Augmentative Communication Device, All Ages

The augmentative communication device must be billed using the procedure code assigned to each component. The specific components will be reimbursed, as needed, for the procedure codes listed below and will count toward the lifetime limit of $7,500 per beneficiary.

Procedure codes found in this section must be billed either electronically or on paper with modifier EP for beneficiaries under 21 years of age or modifier NU for beneficiaries age 21 and over. When a second modifier is listed, that modifier must be used in conjunction with either EP or NU.

Additionally, when billed on paper, procedure codes must be billed with a type of service (TOS) "6" for individuals under age 21 or TOS "H" for individuals age 21 and over.

Modifiers in this section are indicated by the headings M1 and M2. Type of service is indicated by the heading TOS. Prior authorization requirements are shown under the heading PA. If prior authorization is needed, that information is indicated with a ?Y? in the column; if not, an ?N? is shown.

NOTE: Attach a manufacturer?s invoice to the claim and indicate the item or parts billed on the invoice. A description and the amount billed for each item must be attached to the claim. If more than one item is billed under a procedure code, the description and billed amount of each item must be listed separately under each procedure code and attached to the claim. The total billed for each procedure code should be reflected in field 24F.

* Prior authorization is not required when another insurance pays at least 50% of the Medicaid maximum allowable reimbursement amount.
