ATTENTION HOSPITAL PROVIDERS:
POLICY CLARIFICATION- HOSPITAL OWNED CLINICS AND PROVIDER BASED BILLING
In late June, a notice was published to hospitals addressing the appropriate use of Revenue Code 761 and claims related to the issues identified in the notice were systematically voided. Since that notice, we have received inquiries from several hospitals concerning services provided at hospital ‘satellite’ locations and the use of HR761. Medicaid has issued a policy clarification statement to assist providers with understanding Medicaid policy for hospital satellite locations/clinics and provider based billing. This statement is available in its entirety for all providers via web posting on the LaMedicaid.com homepage.
Please contact Molina Provider Relations (800) 473-2783 or (225) 924-5040 if you have any questions regarding this matter.
