Summary

Connecticut DSS identified a system issue in Santrax where skilled nursing prior authorizations incorrectly display service codes T1002 and T1003, and show 'unit' instead of 'visit' as the unit of measure. A system correction is scheduled for July 9, 2020 to fix these display issues and void the incorrect service codes.

Action Required

Action needed
After July 9, 2020: Home Health providers must refresh their visits in Santrax to confirm visit data before billing outstanding skilled nursing claims.
