Guest guest Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Our Medicare payer is processing claims with patient responsibility at 20% of the MPPR rates, not the allowable rates. ________________________________ From: PTManager [mailto:PTManager ] On Behalf Of Pam Harbert Sent: Monday, March 07, 2011 11:16 AM To: PTManager Subject: Part B Billing Group: In reviewing our OP billing from January we are noticing that Medicare is billing the patient 20% of the initial allowable charges but reimbursing facilities under the MPPR rules. How are we to bill the patients at our OP facility? We have been billing 20% of the MPPR guidelines. I think we are under billing. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Pamela J.
