BT202106: IHCP to update rates for certain DME and medical supply items effective February 1, 2021
Summary
Indiana Medicaid changes the reimbursement methodology for select durable medical equipment (DME) and medical supply HCPCS codes for dates of service on or after February 1, 2021, and the codes are subject to the 21st Century Cures Act. Updated maximum fees are listed for each code by modifier, and the capped rental period is 6 months for power wheelchairs and 10 months for other capped rental DME and medical supplies that are subject to the Act, while the 15-month capped rental period remains for codes that are not subject to the Act. Codes E0639 and E0640 move from manual pricing to maximum-fee pricing, and E0467 is a frequently serviced item for which the IHCP reimburses rental payments only.
