1 code it ALLOMATRIX Injectable Putty DBM Putty HPS Device odes HPS codes are developed and maintained by MS and are used to report items such as medical devices, implants, drugs and supplies. -codes are a special type of HPS code designed specifically for hospital use in billing for certain outpatient items and procedures. Other payers may also accept -codes. S codes are used by private insurers to report drugs, services, and supplies for which there are no national codes but for which codes are needed by the private sector to implement policies, programs, or claims processing. They are for the purpose of meeting the particular needs of the private sector. Not all implanted items have a specific HPS code. If desired, a miscellaneous HPS code can be used. HPS ode Description 2015 Reimbursement odes The following codes contained in this document are representative of possible services or diagnoses that may be associated use of Wright products. This is not a complete listing of possible codes. Not all of the codes are necessarily to be used together. Some codes may be considered a component of another ( bundled ). Final determination of the correct or appropriate coding for services are made by the claims submitter/provider and should be consistent the billing policies of the patient s health insurance program.

Physician oding Resource based relative value scale (RBRVS) is the prospective payment system uses to reimburse physicians. Each service has relative value units (RVUs) that indicate its rank compared to all other services in terms of the relative costs of the resources required, including physician work, practice expenses, and malpractice insurance. The RVU is converted to a flat payment amount using a standardized conversion factor. Different sites of services have different RVUs and payment: AA AA AA Facility RVUs represent surgical services provided in hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, or skilled nursing facilities. Non-Facility RVUs represent surgical services provided in physician s offices. RVUs and payments are usually lower in the Facility setting because the facility is incurring some of the costs. RVUs and payments are usually higher in the Non-Facility setting because the physician incurs all costs there and the physician must be reimbursed for those costs. NA indicates that the Non-Facility RVUs do not exist because the service is expected to be in a facility. UNL indicates the PT code as unlisted, and therefore Non-Facility or Facility RVUs cannot be calculated.

5 Hospital Outpatient oding (APs) Ambulatory payment classifications (APs) is the prospective payment system uses to reimburse hospitals for outpatient services. Each PT code for a significant procedure is assigned to a specific AP class based on clinical and resource similarities. Each AP has a relative weight that indicates its rank compared to all other procedures in terms of the relative costs. The relative weight is then converted to a flat payment amount using a standardized conversion factor. Multiple APs can be assigned for the same case if multiple procedures are. The status indicator (SI) signifies how a code is handled for payment. Specifically, Status Indicator indicates an inpatient procedure, Not paid under OPPS. Patient should be admitted and billed as an inpatient. Status indicator J1 will trigger a comprehensive AP payment for the claim, meaning a single AP will be paid while all other items and services on the same date of service will no longer generate separate payment. Status indicator N creates payment is packaged into payment for other services, including outliers. Therefore, there is no separate AP payment.status indicator Q2 are packaged only if they are billed on the same date of service any other codes a T status indicator. If not, they are separately payable under a separate AP. Status indicator T means that the code pays at 100% of the rate when it is the only procedure or is the highest-weighted procedure, but pays at 50% of the rate when it is submitted another higher-weighted procedure. For, a few exceptions, the AP payment for the procedure code is considered complete. In general, separate payment is not made for Implanted devices. Instead, payment for implants used in the procedure is included in the payment for the procedure. However, private payers may have carve-outs for implants. UA indicates unassigned as has not valued this procedure. Reimbursement policy and pricing will vary among non- payers.

10 Ambulatory Surgery enter (AS) oding s prospective payment system for ASs is based on the systems used for hospital outpatient services and physician office-based procedures. Each PT code for an AS-covered procedure is assigned a relative weight and flat payment amount which is then adjusted for the AS setting. Multiple procedures can be paid for the same case if multiple codes are submitted. The payment indicator (PI) signifies how a code is handled for payment. Specifically, payment indicator A2 means a surgical procedure whose payment is based on the hospital outpatient rate. indicator G2 is a technical variation but also means a surgical procedures whose payment is based on the hospital outpatient rate. indicator J8 specifies a device-intensive procedure; paid at adjusted rate. indicator N1 indicates a packaged procedure/item; no separate payment made. indicator P2 indicates payment is based on OPPS relative payment weight. When the Multiple Procedure Discount is Yes, it indicates that the code pays at 100% of the rate when it is the only procedure or is the highest-weighted procedure, but pays at 50% of the rate when it is submitted another higher-weighted procedure. NA indicates a surgical procedure excluded from ASs payment for Y For, a few exceptions, the AS payment for the procedure code is considered complete. In general, separate payment is not made for Implanted devices. Instead, payment for implants used in the procedure is included in the payment for the procedure. However, private payers may have carve-outs for implants.

Diagnosis codes indicate the reason for the procedure and are mandatory for reimbursement. The codes shown below are those that are common procedures using the ALLOMATRIX Injectable Putty, though other codes may also be appropriate. This list includes common codes assigned for ankle and foot disorders. The ID-9-M book should always be referenced for diagnostic coding.

Each inpatient stay is assigned to a specific group based on clinical and resource similarities for its ID-9-M diagnosis and procedure codes. Only one DRG is assigned to each inpatient case, regardless of the number of diagnosis and procedure codes. W and W M refers to secondary diagnoses that are designated as complications/ comorbidities () or major complications/ comorbidities (M). Each DRG has a relative weight which is then converted to a flat payment amount using standard operating and capital amounts. For, a few exceptions, the DRG payment for the procedure code is considered complete and payment for implants is included in the DRG payment. However, private payers may have carve-outs for implants.
