Guest guest Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Do you have the modifers on it? Which are you using Re: 97110 & 97032 Hi , an you be more specific about your denials? What is being denied and nder what circumstance? That would help. Also you may look up the list f required Medicare documentation that is available if you search under edicare compliance or Medicare audit. I don't have it with me but if o-one posts it here, I will send it to you this evening. This list has a hecklist of what Medicare requires in documentation and is there pecifically to help those that are audited or get denials to know what is equired. One thing I also need to ask is that are you sending the H & P (do you ean the PT evaluation?) or are you sending in the Medicare Certification? Medicare requires the physician certification not the PT eval. Most linics today have combined their evaluation form into a Medicare ertification format so that the evaluation contains all the necessary nformation for Medicare Certification and that gets sent to the patient's hysician for signature. The Certification,signed by the physician, daily otes (in proper Medicare format) and required Medicare Progress Notes done every 10th visit or 30 days whichever comes first)>must also be ncluded in most appeals of denials. If you give us more info about the denials, we can be a little more pecific with the answer. hanks. om Howell, PT, MPT PTA Payment Specialist eridian, ID howell@... We are getting denials from Medicare requesting documentation and when we send the H & P is not enought to determine medical necessity. Does anyone have any suggestion on what else we need to provide or what needs to be documented in the H & P for reimbursement? Thank you. L.
