Action Required

Action needed
Before March 1, 2016: Billing team must stop using code A4595 for TENS unit supplies and switch to A4556 (electrodes) and A4557 (lead wires). Update billing system with new quantity limits: A6530-A6545 limited to 4 per 6 months, breast pumps E0602/E0603 limited to 1 per 2 years, and various CPAP/BiPAP supplies with monthly/quarterly limits. Ensure 'From' and 'To' dates are entered for supply billing to avoid MUE denials. Exception: dual eligible members are exempt from A4595 restrictions.
