In this Webcast, Covance Medicare policy experts discuss
- how payment will be calculated for drugs that are bundled, that qualify for transitional pass-through payment, and that lack codes;
- why to apply for transitional pass-through status in light of the proposed changes;
- the new packaging threshold and "bundling";
- an update on a change to HCPCS coding under OPPS;
- new provisions for separate drug payment in the ASC; and
- new quality payment for hospital outpatient departments.
The submission deadline for comments on the proposed rule is September 14th. Register for this event to learn more.
