Current through Register Vol. 51, page 57, November 12, 2024
Section 67:16:05:07 - Covered services - Rate of payment

Covered home health services are limited to the procedures listed on the department's fee schedule website. Payment is limited to the home health agency's usual and customary charge or the rate of payment specified on the department's website, whichever is lower.

A procedure code billed with a modifier of "22" is reimbursed at 125 percent of the established rate.

The rates of payment are subject to review and amendment by the department. A provider may request that the department review a particular reimbursement rate for possible adjustment or request the inclusion or exclusion of a particular code from the list. When reviewing the requests, the department shall review paid claims information, Medicare fee schedules, national coding lists, and documentation submitted by the provider or the associated medical professional organization to determine whether a change is warranted.
