  9. Define National Correct Coding Initiative

  10. National Correct Coding Initiative In the 1990s, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) developed the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) to promote national correct coding methodologies and to control improper coding leading to inappropriate payment NCCI has been in place for many years and most providers are familiar with the editing methodologies with Medicare Also included in NCCI editing are: • Claims with Third Party Liability (TPL) amounts • Claims denied by the primary insurance What is it?

  11. National Correct Coding Initiative Initial editing encompasses three basic coding concepts • This pair of edits represent two codes that normally should not be reported together. • Column One indicates the correct code, and Column Two indicates the incorrect or inappropriate code(s) in relation to the Column One code. Column One Column Two • Identifies procedures that cannot be reasonably performed on the same day because they are mutually exclusive. • These procedures cannot be performed at the same anatomic site or same patient encounter. Mutually Exclusive Procedures (ME) • The maximum units of services that a provider would report under most circumstances for a single member on a single date of service. • If the providerbills for moreunits than the amount of units established by MUE for that procedure code, that detail line will be denied when the claim is processed for NCCI editing. Medically Unlikely Edits (MUE)

  12. National Correct Coding Initiative • NCCI will affect providers submitting the following: • Institutional outpatient claims • Professional claims • Professional claim implementation began January 27, 2011 • Institutional claim implementation begins April 1, 2011 • Watch for more information in your bulletins, banner pages, and newsletters at www.indianamedicaid.com • The NCCI policy manual is available at http://www.cms.gov/NationalCorrectCodInitEd Who will be affected?
