As a reminder, we will update our claim editing software for outpatient facility services throughout 2024, with many updates occurring quarterly. These updates include, but are not limited to:
- The addition of new and revised codes (for example, CPT®, HCPCS, ICD-10, modifiers, revenue codes) and associated edits.
- Updates related to the appropriate use of various code combinations, including but not limited to, CPT/HCPCS code to revenue code, type of bill to procedure code, type of bill to CPT/HCPCS code, and CPT/HCPCS code to modifier.
- Updates to National Correct Coding Initiative edits (NCCI) and facility outpatient hospital services medically unlikely edits (MUEs).
- Updates to reflect coding requirements as designated by industry standard sources such as the National Uniform Billing Committee (NUBC) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
