Medical Assistance Program Fee Schedule Revisions

Purpose of Notice

[40 Pa.B. 4716]
[Saturday, August 14, 2010]

The Department of Public Welfare (Department) announces that it will revise the fees, or a component of the fee, on the Medical Assistance (MA) Program Fee Schedule for select medical, surgical, laboratory, durable medical equipment and radiological services effective August 30, 2010.

Fee Schedule Revisions

The Pennsylvania Medicaid State Plan (State Plan) specifies that maximum fees for services covered under the MA Program are to be determined on the basis of the following: fees may not exceed the Medicare upper limit when applicable; fees must be consistent with efficiency, economy and quality of care; and fees must be sufficient to assure the availability of services to recipients. MA regulations at 55 Pa. Code § 1150.62(a) (relating to payment levels and notice of rate setting changes) also specify that the MA fees may not exceed the Medicare upper limit.

The Department has determined that MA fees for approximately 200 medical, surgical, laboratory, durable medical equipment and radiological procedure codes or combinations of procedure codes and modifiers, are above the Medicare upper limit for the same procedure codes. The Department is adjusting the fees on the MA Program Fee Schedule for these combinations of procedure codes and modifiers to equal the Medicare upper limit. Revision of these fees is necessary to comply with the regulation and State Plan, and to avoid a Federal disallowance. When adjusting the assistant surgeon fee (modifier 80), the Department followed the Medicare guidelines of paying 16% of the maximum allowable payment to a primary surgeon, as MA fees may not exceed the Medicare upper limit.

As set forth as follows, the Department has revised the total fee (billed with no modifier) and, as applicable, the professional component fee (billed with modifier 26), the technical component fee (billed with modifier TC), the assistant surgeon fee (billed with modifier 80), and the fee when billing for the rental (RR) of durable medical equipment. ''N/A'' indicates that the modifier is not on the MA Program Fee Schedule for the procedure code. ''N/C'' indicates that there is no change in the fee associated with the modifier:

Fiscal Impact

It is anticipated that these revisions will result in savings of $0.368 million ($0.154 million in State funds) in the MA Outpatient Program in Fiscal Year 2010-2011 and annualized savings of $0.552 million ($0.250 million in State funds) in Fiscal Year 2011-2012. These State fund estimates are based on the increased Federal Medical Assistance Percentages, applicable through December 2010, as determined under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009.

Public Comment

Interested persons are invited to submit written comments regarding this notice to the Department at the following address: Department of Public Welfare, Office of Medical Assistance Programs, c/o Regulations Coordinator, Room 515, Health and Welfare Building, Harrisburg, PA 17120. Comments received within 30 days will be reviewed and considered for any subsequent revisions of the MA Program Fee Schedule.
