Charge Posting

When the encounter is billed, a UB/837I claim is created for Medicare Part A that meets the specific billing requirements for an RHC. The appearance of the claim is a result of parameters defined within thePayertab of theService Itemslibrary.

  • Claim Line 1:

    Includes the Revenue Code (0521) and no CPT4/HCPCS code. The total charge amount is equal to the sum of all non-preventive services that rolled-up because they have the same revenue code.

  • Claim Lines 2 - n:
    Preventive services are listed separately on the claim with their corresponding revenue code, CPT4/HCPCS code, and charge amount.
    Claims

Medicare remits a $90.00 encounter rate payment on the 0521 revenue code line item.

Because the encounter does not include the 0521 line item, the payment must be posted manually against the original charges. Adjustments are also posted manually against the original charges so the appropriate balances, if any, can be settled to secondary insurance or to patient.
