Date: 05/23/22
Superior HealthPlan presents a new payment policy that addresses reimbursement limitations for facility Evaluation and Management (E/M) charges billed in conjunction with a treatment room revenue code. As a result, the new policy has been added, and is posted on Superior’s Clinical, Payment and Pharmacy Polices webpage for review, prior to its implementation:
POLICY | EFFECTIVE DATE | APPLICABLE PRODUCTS | NEW POLICY OVERVIEW |

| |||
Policy Number: CC.PP.071
| 08/15/2022
| Medicaid (STAR, STAR Health, STAR Kids, STAR+PLUS), CHIP, Health Insurance Marketplace (Ambetter from Superior HealthPlan)
| The purpose of this policy is to define reimbursement guidelines for claims billed with revenue codes 760, 761 and 769 that are billed in conjunction with an evaluation and management service according to the application criteria defined in the payment policy. Superior will not reimburse for facility Evaluation and Management (E/M) charges billed in conjunction with a treatment room revenue code as these services do not represent a specific procedure performed in a treatment room. |
