GENERAL DESCRIPTION |
Integrated Billing requires one time access to the
IFCAP Item Master file (#441). Prosthetics changed from using the Item Master
file as the source of the Prosthetics Item description to using the
Prosthetics HCPCS. Integrated Billing is now being updated to correspond to
this change in Prosthetics. However for already billed items the bill must
not change, therefore for historical purposes, the Item Master description
will be pulled and saved with the old/existing billed Prosthetics Items.
The Integrated Billing patch IB*2*389 post-init will access the Item Master
file to get then store (#362.5,.05) the Item description for every prosthetic
item billed at the time of the installation, not directly related to a Patient
Item (#660).
This agreement will expire at the end of the IB*2*389 compliance date.
