2 K0510B Feeding Tube Resident has PEG tube but it is not being used for feedings or fluids. Should it be coded at K0510B? MDS Items in K0510 Nutritional Approaches are intended to capture nutritional approaches to meet resident s nutritional needs If the tube is only flushed for maintenance with no nutrition provided, K0510B should not be checked Presence of the feeding tube alone (which is not being used for nutritional purposes) does not meet criteria for coding K0510B Feeding tube 4 M1200G Application of Non-surgical Dressings Should dressings on IV lines, etc. be recorded at M1200G Application of non-surgical dressings? No. IV and Port dressings cannot be included in M1200G as they are not being used to treat a skin condition as specified by the MDS 3.0 Manual. Section M as a whole relates to Skin Conditions. All items in Section M leading up to M1200 deal with ulcers, wounds and skin problems; this is the context for skin and ulcer treatments in M1200. Not all care is captured on the MDS. 5 Baseline Results RUG Elements Error Rates Percentage Year 6 2

8 Fee for Service The fee-for-service (FFS) payment system for nursing facility (NF) services will remain in effect during and after implementation of Community HealthChoices (CHC). The Department of Human Services (DHS) will continue to set quarterly per diem rates for each nonpublic NF and annual per diem rates for each county NF provider. NFs shall continue to submit cost reports and case-mix index (CMI) reports. Field Operations will continue to monitor: Minimum Data Set Preadmission Screening and Resident Review Medical Assistance (MA) billing until CHC start date 22 Nursing Facility Transportation The CHC-MCO must coordinate non-emergency medical transportation for nursing facility residents. CHC-MCOs must work with nursing facilities to provide this service or may use a transportation broker to arrange it. CHC-MCOs, through their service coordinators, are responsible for coordinating transportation for their Participants but may work with nursing facilities to complete this task. Denial notices are relevant for participants with transportation if not approved or reduced on their person-centered service plans. 23 Provider Feedback Problems Experienced: Communication challenges with the MCOs that, at times, have resulted in delays of payment. Non-Medical Transportation: MCOs handling it differently. Billing coding challenges New Participant Referral issues 24 8
9 Provider Feedback Problems Experienced: HHA Exchange Data Issues with HCSIS and SAMS Administrative Costs of Tracking Missed Shifts: PAS agency doing double-work responding directly to MCOs and reporting to outside service coordinators.
