Reimbursing Place of Service 10 at the Nonfacility Rate for Medicare Telehealth Services
Part B providers in Jurisdiction 6 and Jurisdiction K
Description of Issue
In CY 2024, CMS issued a change to processing for telehealth services billed with POS 10. As of 1/1/2024, these claims are to be paid at the nonfacility PFS rate. A system processing issue resulted in incorrect payments at the facility rate and this issue has now been corrected. As per CMS instructions issued 2/21/2024, NGS will initiate a mass adjustment of all impacted claims with dates of service 1/1/2024 and after.
