Pharmacy Question for the Week of July 23, 2018

Question:

Where can I find the drugs with corrected Medicare payment rates, and can I resubmit claims to ensure we are paying the correct rate?

Answer:

Some drugs and biologicals based on average sales price (ASP) methodology will have payment rates that are corrected retroactively. These retroactive corrections typically occur on a quarterly basis. The list of drugs and biologicals with corrected payments rates will be accessible on the CMS website on the first date of the quarter at https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-forService-Payment/HospitalOutpatientPPS/OPPS-Restated-Payment-Rates.html. Providers may resubmit claims that were impacted by adjustments to previous quarter’s payment files.
