This Recurring Update Notification describes changes to and billing instructions for various payment policies implemented in the January 2010 OPPS update. It affects Chapter 3, Section 90.3.3; Chapter 4, Sections: 20.5, 50, 200, 231, and 290; and Chapter 32, Section 140. CMS is reorganizing information in these sections. CMS is deleting sections 290.3.1, 290.3.2, and 290.3.3 from Chapter 4 because they are obsolete. The January 2010 Integrated Outpatient Code Editor (I/OCE) and OPPS Pricer will reflect the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS), Ambulatory Payment Classification (APC), HCPCS Modifier, and Revenue Code additions, changes, and deletions identified in this Change Request.
