*Waiver Supplies (based on the way it’s billed)
• For billing of Enteral Formulas, 100 calories = 1 unit.
• Units/Month: Take calories / can divided by 100 (calories) = units /100 calories.
• Then take units /100 calories x cans / month = Units/Month.
![Page 29: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
ExampleExample: MD orders 30 – 8oz cans of
Ensure Plus each month.
• Ensure Plus has 355 calories / can.
• 355 divided by 100 (calories) = 3.55.
• 3.55 x 30 cans/month = 106.5 units / month.
![Page 30: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
*Diabetic Testing Supplies: (Examples Handout):
• Based on 1 unit of lancets = 100/box.
• 1 unit of strips = 50/pkg.
Find the portion of those units for the
“Units / Month”

Nutritional Supplements Nutritional Supplements by Mouth by Mouth:
• Unit Rate: = Avg. monthly cost
divided by units/month.
• Our Ensure Plus example: $41.70 divided by 106.5 units/mo. = .39 (per 100 cal.).
(MID max = .53 per 100 cal.)
![Page 35: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
*Average Monthly Cost* • To convert weekly into monthly costs multiply by 4.3• CM assessment is pro-rated for 12 months (or otherwise) • Monthly CM is calculated “straight out”• Purchased DME and HMA are pro-rated (12 months or otherwise) carried over to revisions throughout the pro-ration period.
Examples: Bed rails purchased in 11/2003
Reimbursement = $157.82 divided by 12 months = $13.15/month. Stays on POC
from 11/2003 to 10/2004
![Page 36: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Short-term Intensive Services’Short-term Intensive Services’• Pro-rate the total cost for 12 months (or otherwise)
Example: PT is provided 2 x week
for 60 days, at $90.26 / visitTotal = $1444.16 divided by 12 = $120.35
NOTE: A POC revision just to delete the DME monthly pro-rated cost at the end of the pro-ration period in NOT necessary. Costs can be deleted
IN THE NEXT REVISION after the end of the period.
![Page 37: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
• Include in all revisions for the pro-ration period; delete in the 1st revision after that.
• Use a separate line each time a STIS is added.
![Page 38: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Institutional Respite and In Home Respite are pro-rated
•Use a separate line each time a new round is added.
Diabetic testing supplies:• Lancets:Lancets: Units / month x $12.06 (unit rate) = avg. monthly cost .• StripsStrips:: Units / month x $33.94 (unit rate) = avg. monthly cost.
• Medicare pays 80%, Medicaid pays 20%.(Only Medicaid
Pays For Insulin Syringes)

Lead Agency Medical Supplies:• Your cost (What you pay the supplier + deliver charges + taxes + 10% overhead.
RestrictionRestriction: Must not exceed the MID max. on the HH Supply Schedule.
Example:Diapers cost $44.91/case (includes delivery charge; 80 diapers/case)
• $44.91 + $3.14 (7% tax) + 4.81 (10%) = $52.86
• $52.86 divided by 80 diapers = .66 each (MID max. reimb. = .90 each)
![Page 41: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Hospice (Must be paid for by Medicare) :
Unit rate x 31 days.
Example: $115.16 x 31 = $3569.96
(Under “Service” write Hospice and list the
services provided, ex. “Nursing, diapers,
underpads, hospital bed”.
![Page 42: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Using the appropriate column:• Medicaid is the payor of last resort
• Services paid by a third party must be billed to that party first
• General rule: If Medicare is the primary funding source for DME, Medicare pays 80% of the Medicare allowable, and Medicaid will pay 20%.
![Page 43: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Also keep in mind if Medicare or private
insurance pays LESS than
Medicaid’s reimbursement rate,
Medicaid can only be billed the difference
between the third party
payment and the
Medicaid maximum.
![Page 44: Fundamentals of Plan of Care Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062411/56816773550346895ddc64be/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Example: An Agency Charges $125
for a DME Item
• The Medicaid max is $110 and Medicare only pays $100
• Only $10 may be billed to Medicaid (difference between the Medicare reimbursement and Medicaid max).
