Reporting Discipline-Specific Rehab Modifiers
Special circumstances may arise that require explanations about the service or treatment performed. When this occurs, a modifier is utilized to indicate to the payor that special reimbursement should be considered due to this special situation.
A modifier is a two-digit code used as a suffix to the five-digit CPT billing code.
39
POLARIS GROUP Strategic Solutions For Healthcare www.polaris-group.com©
Reporting Discipline-Specific Rehab Modifiers
• A modifier must be reported with the CPT code on the UB-04 to designate which discipline (PT, OT, SLP) performed the service. GN-service delivered by a Speech-Language Pathologist
GO-service delivered by an Occupational Therapist
GP-service delivered by a Physical Therapist
59 - Distinct Procedural Service identifies
procedures/services not normally reported together,

2013 Claims-Based Data Collection Requirement for Outpatient Therapy Services
• Implementation January 1st, 2013– CMS is looking at Medicare beneficiaries’ outpatient
therapy services including PT, OT and SLP to understand patient conditions and outcomes.
– Functional reporting will allow the system to collect data on beneficiary function during the course of therapy services in order to better understand beneficiary conditions, outcomes and expenditures. This data will then be used in developing an improved payment system.
– This data collection effort is the first step towards collecting the data needed for this type of payment reform.
53
POLARIS GROUP Strategic Solutions For Healthcare www.polaris-group.com©
Claims-Based Data Collection
• 42 non-payable G-codes will be used to identify type of functional limitation reported and status.
• 7 Modifiers will indicate the severity/complexity of the functional limitation being tracked.

Claims-Based Data Collection
• Severity/Complexity Modifiers– For each functional G-code used on a claim a modifier
will be required to report the severity/complexity for the functional limitation.
– A 7-point scale will be used to report the severity or complexity of the functional limitation involved.
– The scale identifies modifiers for zero and 100 percent impairment and separate modifiers for roughly each 20th percentile of impairment/function.
58
FH04d - Developed by Polaris Group www.polaris-group.com Page 32 of 58
POLARIS GROUP Strategic Solutions For Healthcare www.polaris-group.com©
Claims-Based Data Collection
• Time Frame for Reporting– The functional status reporting with claims submission
required by the therapists will be at 4 distinct time periods:
• Initial service at the outset of a therapy episode
• At least every ten visits
• Discharge
• The time the beneficiary’s condition changes significantly enough to clinically warrant a re-evaluation such that a HCPCS/CPT code for a re-evaluation or a repeat evaluation is billed. 59

Multiple Procedure Payment Reduction (MPPR)
• In January 2011, CMS began applying a MPPR to the practice expense payment when more than one unit or procedure is provided to the same patient on the same day, i.e., the MPPR applies to multiple units as well as multiple procedures.
• For therapy services, the MPPR applies to all services furnished to a patient on the same day, regardless of whether the services are provided in one therapy discipline or multiple disciplines; for example, physical therapy, occupational therapy, or speech-language pathology.
6565
POLARIS GROUP Strategic Solutions For Healthcare www.polaris-group.com©
Multiple Procedure Payment Reduction (MPPR)
• Full payment is made for the unit or procedure with the highest Practice Expense payment.
• For subsequent units and procedures, furnished to the same patient on the same day, payment is a percent of the payment for the PE services furnished in institutional settings.
6666

Multiple Procedure Payment Reduction (MPPR)
• On 1/2/13, Congress included a provision in the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 that applies a 50% multiple procedure payment reduction (MPPR) to outpatient therapy services effective April 1, 2013.
• This is an increase from the 20% MPPR reduction that applied for office settings and 25% MPPR reduction that applied for facilities in 2012.
• The reduction applies across disciplines. The work and malpractice components of the therapy service payment would not be reduced.
6767
POLARIS GROUP Strategic Solutions For Healthcare www.polaris-group.com©
Multiple Procedure Payment Reduction (MPPR)
• Claim Adjustment Reason Code will be on the remittance advice for service lines that have been affected by the Multiple Procedure Payment Reduction:– Code 59: Processed based on multiple or
concurrent procedure rules.
– This new code will make payment adjustments due to the MPPR more easily recognized on your RA.
