Time Topic 10:00 am – 10:05 am Introduction of Kerry Dunning & “Focus on Financials” 10:05 am – 10:35 am Rule Number 1 – Stay our of Trouble 10:35 am – Noon Evaluating Your Program 12:00 pm – 12:15 pm Break – Bring Lunch back for final hour 12:15 pm – 1:15 pm Focus on Tracking, Training & Growth Swing bed programs can improve occupancy and productivity in addition to increasing facility revenue. However, swing bed programs will do more harm than good if hospital leadership do not understand very specific skilled nursing

  • regulations. The ability to utilize swing beds increases revenues and margins that can

help support population health, wellness, and other services. Kerry Dunning will provide training and resources in order to help financial hospital staff & leaders to increase utilization and revenue for post-acute care services, as well as ensure compliance in financial matters related to program management.

 The Nursing Home Reform Act mandates that nursing

facilities use a clinical assessment tool known as the Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) to identify residents’ strengths, weaknesses, preferences, and needs in key areas of functioning

  • The assessment is an integral part of the residents’ medical record
  • It is designed to thoroughly provide each resident with a standardized,

comprehensive, and reproducible resident assessment

  • Determines individualized care plans for each resident
  • The minimum data set (MDS) is a component of the resident

assessment which contains a standardized set of essential clinical and functional status measures

13

 The RUGs flow from the MDS and drive Medicare

reimbursement to nursing homes

 Residents are initially assigned to clinical, therapy or

clinical + therapy categories

  • ADLs are a key driver of reimbursement
  • Therapy minutes are the primary patient types in SWBs

 Therapy Log  Understanding of minutes  Matching minutes to claim (PPS) or understanding what is medically necessary (CAH)

14

CAH PPS

 The SNF-level services provided by

a CAH, are paid at 101% of reasonable cost.

  • Hospitals must follow the rules for

payment in Medicare Claims Processing Manual §60 for swing-bed services.

 Other elements:

  • Coinsurance and deductible are

applicable for inpatient CAH payment.

  • All items on the ASC X12 837

institutional claim format are completed in accord with the implementation guide applicable to the dates of the stay. All items on Form CMS-1450 are completed in accordance with Chapter 25.

 Section 4432 of the Balanced

Budget Act of 1997 (BBA, Pub.

  • L. 105-33, enacted on August 5,

1997) amended section 1888 of the Act to provide for the implementation of a per diem PPS for SNFs

 Section 1883 of the Act permits

certain rural hospitals to enter into a Medicare swing-bed agreement, in accordance with section 1888(e)(7) of the Act, these services furnished by non-CAH rural hospitals are paid under the SNF PPS

15

RSBM Training‐ Focus on Financials: April 26, 2017 6

 Swing bed payment regulations can be found at 42 CFR 409.30. Standard (a)

discusses discharge from the hospital.

  • Basically a SNF patient does not have to be from the same hospital or CAH as the swing

bed.

  • 42 CFR 482. 12(c)(4) defines that a physician is responsible for the care of the patient.
  • 482.24(c)(2)(vii) states that all records must document a discharge summary with outcome
  • f hospitalization, disposition of care, and provisions for follow-up care. As the person

responsible for the care of the patient it therefore follows the physician must do the discharge summary.

 Discharge from the acute care hospital bed is required because the patient is

changing from one form of reimbursement to another.

  • This is a reimbursement requirement for payment. A swing bed is not considered hospital

level care.

  • It is defined in the payment regulations as SNF level care and is reimbursed at a lesser

amount.

 It therefore follows that the patient must have a discharge summary following

acute care services. When the patient is discharged from the swing bed, they need a discharge summary of SNF level services.

16

 CAH Swing beds are exempt from SNF consolidated billing,

however they do need to follow the direction in the CMS Internet Only Manual (IOM), Publication 100-4, Chapter 3, Section 10.4

  • n bundling hospital charges. These charges should be included
  • n the 18X type of bill

 Services provided by the CAH, while the beneficiary is inpatient

in the CAH Swing bed that are considered exclusions from SNF Consolidated Billing, shall be billed on an 85X type of bill. All related outpatient charges shall be included on the 85X type of bill that would typically be billed for outpatient services.

 As stated in the IOM, Publication 100-4, Chapter 3, Section 60,

swing bed services must be billed separately from inpatient hospital services. Therefore, any swing bed patient who requires inpatient hospital services must be discharged from the swing bed and admitted as a hospital inpatient.

17

Scenario: George, a Medicare patient, was in a covered swing bed stay receiving skilled nursing for complications related to a heart attack. During the stay, George began to complain of severe headaches, so the physician ordered a CT

  • f the brain with and without contrast. After reviewing the

exam, the physician determined the findings were normal and no additional treatment or skilled services were required, so the physician discharged George and he was free to go home. The CAH will bill the charges for the CT scan on an

  • utpatient claim because the procedure is listed as one of the

major categories for skilled nursing facility (SNF) consolidating billing.

18

TRUE OR FALSE?

slide-7
SLIDE 7

RSBM Training‐ Focus on Financials: April 26, 2017 7

  • False. Although the CT scan is considered a major

category and is an “excluded” service under the SNF PPS consolidated billing requirements, CAHs are exempt from using the list and services provided while the patient is in a CAH’s swing bed should be included on the swing bed claim, regardless of the reason for the service, the findings, or whether additional services were

  • required. <Social Security Act §§ 1888(e)(7),

1883(b)(3), 42 CFR 413.114, MLN Matters SE0606>

 Patients should be encouraged to wear their personal

clothes and participate in activities as appropriate

 Admissions Criteria – not your mayor’s mother’s

program

 Care Plan and patient participation  Hospitals policies can be used for much of a SWB

program:

  • Transfer policies
  • Elopement
  • Procedure for notification when a resident no longer qualifies

for swing beds

22

 The management of this plan of care requires

skilled nursing personnel until such time as skilled care is no longer required in coordinating the patient’s treatment regimen

 The documentation in the medical record as a whole is

essential for this determination and must illustrate the complexity of the unskilled services that are a necessary part of the medical treatment and which require the involvement of skilled nursing personnel to promote the stabilization of the patient's medical condition and safety.

23

 Consistent with the symptoms or diagnoses of the

illness or injury under treatment

 Necessary and consistent with generally accepted

professional medical standards (i.e., not experimental

  • r investigational)

 Not furnished primarily for the convenience of the

patient, the attending physician, or the family

 Furnished at the most appropriate level that can be

provided safely and effectively to the patient

24

  • Daily Documentation is required to reflect the skilled

services being provided.

– Objective measures of the current level of assistance required for functional tasks – A description of the skilled services provided – Assessment of the patient's response to the services. – Progress towards the treatment goals – Documentation of any treatment variations with the associated rationale – Accurate documentation of treatment time in minutes, to be recorded on the MDS

25

 ADLs are government required, impact

Quality Measures, affect Billing and Revenue, survey process, impact return to hospital rates

 Two key elements:

  • How much assistance is being provided to the

residents

  • And, how many people need to assist the patient

during these activities

  • One MAC recently reported that out of 508 errors identified in

a CERT audit of certain Medicare claims, the contractor found that: – 311 errors were due to “insufficient documentation.”

  • Notably, a majority of the errors in this category were

because the medical record “did not contain a valid physician’s signature” or because a diagnostic test performed “did not contain a valid physician’s order” or an identification of the provider who rendered the service – 132 errors were due to “lack of medical necessity” based

 Pre-Pay audits are being conducted for claims with dates of service on or after

April 1, 2017 that meet these criteria:

  • Claims for ultra-high rehabilitation RUGs
  • Original inpatient claims
  • 21X type of bill

 Post-Pay audits of SNF claims on or after March 17, 2017:

  • The patient requires skilled nursing services or skilled rehabilitation services, i.e., services

that must be performed by or under the supervision of professional or technical personnel; are ordered by a physician and the services are rendered for a condition for which the patient received inpatient hospital services or for a condition that arose while receiving care in a SNF for a condition for which he received inpatient hospital services

  • The patient requires these skilled services on a daily basis
  • As a practical matter, considering economy and efficiency, the daily skilled services can be

provided only on an inpatient basis in a SNF

  • The services delivered are reasonable and necessary for the treatment of a patient’s illness
  • r injury, i.e., are consistent with the nature and severity of the individual’s illness or

injury, the individual’s particular medical needs, and accepted standards of medical
