4 C-CODE SUMMARY Overview: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) requires the reporting of appropriate C-Codes for all device-dependent Ambulatory Payment Classifications (APCs) for hospital oupatient services. If a hospital outpatient bill includes a device-related CPT/HCPCS II procedure code but the C-Code for the associated device is not present, the claim is edited and returned to the hospital. Furthermore, if a C-Code is billed without the appropriate procedure code, the claim will be returned. For the majoirty of C-Codes, the hospital does not receive additional reimbursement for devices. However, the C-Codes are required as CMS is collecting charge data for these devices for use in setting future APC payment rates. C-Codes are only reportable for hospital oupatient procedures, and not all devices have applicable C-Codes. This guide includes a summary list of Terumo products and the corresponding C-Code. This guide is intended to provide general coding guidance. The full list of C-Codes is avalable at Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/HospitalOutpatientPPS/Downloads/Complet-list-DeviceCats-OPPS.pdf. 1 Physicians and hospitals are responsible for selecting and reporting the codes that most accurately desribe the procedure(s) performed. Providers should follow coding guidelines from the insurer as well as review the appropriate coding authorities for further guidance.
