Note: Regence
MedAdvantage reimbursement and coding guidelines follow Medicare
rules whenever possible. In particular, please note the following:
- Regence Correct Code Editor (CCE) and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS)' National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) rules
are applied as they are for other Regence products.
- Diagnosis codes must reflect all digits to the full extent
of the code indicated in the ICD-9 coding manual.
- Regence applies our standard multiple procedure fee reductions
when reimbursing multiple endoscopic procedures rather than applying
Medicare's endoscopic family of codes payment methodology. In
most cases, this results in a higher level of reimbursement.
