8.320.2.14            GENERAL PROVIDER INSTRUCTION:

A.           Health care to New Mexico MAP eligible recipients is furnished by a variety of providers and provider groups.  The reimbursement for these services is administered by MAD.  Upon approval of a PPA or an electronic health record (EHR) incentive payment agreement by MAD or its designee, licensed practitioners, facilities and other providers of services that meet applicable requirements are eligible to be reimbursed for furnishing MAD covered services to MAP eligible recipients.  A provider must be approved before submitting a claim for payment to the MAD claims processing contractors.  When approved, a provider receives instruction on how to access these documents, it is the provider’s responsibility to access these instructions, to understand the information provided and to comply with the requirements.  The provider must contact HSD or its authorized agents to obtain answers to questions related to the material or not covered by the material.  To be eligible for reimbursement, a provider must adhere to the provisions of the MAD PPA and all applicable statutes, regulations, rules, and executive orders.  MAD or its selected claims processing contractor issues payment to a provider using the electronic funds transfer (EFT) only.  Providers must supply necessary information in order for payment to be made.

               B.           Services must be provided within the scope of the practice and licensure for each agency, each rendering provider within that agency or each individual provider.  Services must be in compliance with the statutes, rules and regulations of his or her practitioner’s applicable practice board and act.  Providers must be eligible for reimbursement as described in 8.310.3 NMAC.

               C.           A specific EPSDT service may have additional service restrictions listed in the service’s non-covered section.  Generally the following are considered to be noncovered by MAD:

                              (1)          services furnished to an individual who is not eligible for MAD EPSDT services;

                              (2)          services furnished without the prior authorization of the MAP eligible recipient’s primary care provider (PCP) or HSD or its designee;

                              (3)          services provided by a practitioner who is not in compliance with the statutes, regulations, rules or who renders services outside of the scope of practice as defined by his or her practice board;

                              (4)          services that are not considered medically necessary by MAD or its designee for the condition of the MAP eligible recipient;

                              (5)          services that are primarily educational or vocational in nature; and

                              (6)          services related to activities for the general good and welfare of a MAP eligible recipient, such as general exercises to promote overall fitness and flexibility and activities to provide general motivation, are not considered physical or occupational therapy for MAD reimbursement purposes.

               D.           Certain EPSDT procedures or services identified in the UR instructions may require prior authorization from MAD or its designee.  Services for which prior authorization was obtained remain subject to UR at any point in the payment process.  All EPSDT services are subject to UR for medical necessity and program compliance.  Reviews can be performed before services are furnished, after services are furnished and before payment is made, or after payment is made.  When services are billed to and paid by a coordinated services contractor authorized by HSD, the provider must follow that contractor’s instructions for authorization of services.  A specific EPSDT service may have additional prior authorization requirements listed in the service’s prior authorization section.  The prior authorization of a service does not guarantee that an individual is eligible for a MAD service.  A provider must verify that an individual is eligible for a specific MAD service at the time the service is furnished and must determine if the MAP eligible recipient has other health insurance.  A provider who disagrees with the denial of a prior authorization request or other review decision can request a reconsideration.

               E.           All EPSDT services are reimbursed as follows, except when otherwise instructed.  MAD does not pay a professional component amount to a physical, occupational or speech and language pathologist (SLP) if the therapy is performed in a hospital setting.  MAD reimburses the institutional provider for all components of the service.

                              (1)          Once enrolled, a provider receives instructions on how to access documentation, billing, and claims processing.  Reimbursement is made to a provider for covered services at the lesser of the following:

                                             (a)          the provider’s billed charge; or

                                             (b)          the MAD fee schedule for the specific service or procedure for the provider:

                                                            (i)           the provider’s billed charge must be its usual and customary charge for services;

                                                            (ii)          “usual and customary charge” refers to the amount that the individual provider charges the general public in the majority of cases for a specific procedure or service.

                              (2)          Services not paid according to a fee schedule are reimbursed using the methodology and rate in effect at the time of service.

                              (3)          Reimbursement to the local education agency (LEA), regional educational cooperative (REC), and another state-funded educational agency (SFEA) is not contingent upon billing a third party payer first when the MAP eligible recipient has other insurance.  MAD is generally the payer of last resort.  However, if medical services are included in the MAP eligible recipient’s individual education plan (IEP), and an exception is created under 42 USE 1396b(c), 20 USC 1412(a)(12) and 34 CFR 300.142. and the services are covered by MAD, then MAD is permitted to pay for such services.

[8.320.2.14 NMAC - N, 1/1/2014]

 

8.320.2.15            TOT TO TEEN HEALTHCHECK:  MAD developed the tot to teen healthcheck, the screening segment of EPSDT services.  The tot to teen healthcheck includes periodic screening and regularly scheduled assessments of the MAP eligible recipient’s general physical growth and development as well as behavioral health and social emotional development.

               A.           Primary care providers (PCP), dentists, psychologists, IHS public health clinics, federally qualified health center (FQHC), rural health clinic (RHC), community mental health centers (CMHC), hospitals, school-based clinics, independent certified or licensed nurse practitioners and other health care providers may perform tot to teen healthcheck screens or partial health screenings.  A provider must meet the participation requirements specified in applicable sections of NMAC rules.  Tot to teen healthcheck screens must be furnished within the scope of the provider’s practice, as defined by law.

               B.           Screening services are furnished to a MAP eligible recipient under 21 years of age.  Referrals or treatment for conditions detected during a complete or a partial screen which require further treatment are then covered as part of MAD’s EPSDT services.  A tot to teen healthcheck can be performed during an office visit for an acute illness as long as the illness does not affect the results or the screening process.

                              (1)          Screening schedule for medical components:

                                             (a)          The MAD tot to teen healthcheck periodicity schedule allows for a total of 25 screens.  Screenings are encouraged at the following intervals:

                                                            (vii)       ages 19-20:  two screenings (19 and 20 years).

                                             (b)          Screenings may be performed at intervals other than as described on the periodicity schedule or in addition to those on the periodicity schedule if a MAP eligible recipient receives care at a time not listed on the periodicity schedule or if any components of the screen were not completed at the scheduled ages.  Additional screenings can help bring the MAP eligible recipient up to date with the periodicity schedule.

                                             (c)          The established schedule must be followed unless the MAP eligible recipient’s medical condition is such that a brief deviation is warranted.

                              (2)          Complete medical screens include the following components:

                                             (a)          a comprehensive health and developmental history, including an assessment of both physical and behavioral health or social emotional development;

                                             (b)          a comprehensive unclothed physical exam;

                                             (c)          appropriate immunizations, according to age and health history, unless medically contraindicated at the time;

                                             (d)          laboratory tests, including an appropriate blood lead level assessment;

                                             (e)          health education, including the MAD anticipatory guidance; and

                                             (f)           vision and hearing screenings at the ages indicated in the MAD EPSDT preventative health guidelines.

                              (3)          MAD pays for partial medical screens to a MAP eligible recipient.  Partial medical screens are defined as screens where all the required components of a complete medical screen are not completed for medical reasons.

                              (4)          MAD covers additional medical screens as listed below.

                                             (a)          Behavioral health screenings are performed at intervals which meet reasonable standards or at other intervals as medically necessary for the diagnosis or treatment of a behavioral health disorders or conditions.

                                             (b)          Dental examinations are performed at intervals which meet reasonable dental standards.  Usually these examinations are furnished every six months.  However, examinations can be furnished at other intervals as medically necessary.

                                             (d)          Interperiodic screens can be performed at intervals beyond those specified in the periodicity schedule.  Reimbursement for the performance of interperiodic screens is made only to a MAD provider.  Interperiodic screens are screening encounters with health care, developmental, or educational professionals to determine the existence of suspected physical or behavioral health disorders or conditions.

                                             (e)          Vision examinations are performed at intervals which meet reasonable vision standards or at other intervals as medically necessary.  A vision examination should be furnished before the MAP eligible recipient reaches three years of age and again prior to five years of age or prior to entering school.  If no abnormalities are found, screenings should be furnished every two years with a complete examination furnished if indicated.

                                             (f)           Other necessary health care or diagnostic services are performed when medically necessary.

               C.           MAD covers services considered medically necessary for the treatment or amelioration of conditions identified as a result of a complete tot to teen healthcheck screen, partial medical screen, or interperiodic screen.  Diagnostic or evaluation services furnished during the screening cannot be duplicated as part of the follow-up treatment.  If appropriate, treatment is furnished by the screening provider at the time of the tot to teen healthcheck.

                              (1)          A MAP eligible recipient can be referred for treatment as a result of a tot to teen healthcheck, regardless of whether the provider making the referral is a participating MAD provider.  If it is inappropriate for a screening provider to furnish treatment needed by the MAP eligible recipient, referrals must be made only to a qualified MAD provider.

                              (2)          A MAP eligible recipient may be identified through a tot to teen healthcheck, self referral, or referral from an agency (such as a public school, child care provider, Part B or Part C provider) when he or she is experiencing behavioral health concerns.  For a MAP eligible recipient requiring extensive or long term treatment, he or she must be referred to a MAD behavioral health professional for further evaluation, and if medically necessary, treatment.

                                             (a)          The receiving provider of a MAP eligible recipient must develop an individualized treatment plan.

                                             (b)          The plan must consider the total behavioral health needs of the MAP eligible recipient, including any medical conditions that may impact his or her behavioral health services.

                                             (c)          The plan must be developed in cooperation with the MAP eligible recipient, his or her parents, or guardians, and other health care professionals, as appropriate. In the case of a MAP eligible recipient under 21 years of age who is placed in the custody of the children, youth and families department (CYFD), its assigned social worker, and those appropriate from CYFD’s juvenile justice system (JJS) are to be included in the development of the plan.

8.320.2.18            EPSDT PERSONAL CARE SERVICES:  MAD pays for medically necessary personal care services (PCS) furnished to a MAP eligible recipient under 21 years of age as part of the EPSDT program when the services are part of his or her ISP for the treatment of correction, amelioration, or prevention of deterioration of a MAD identified medical or behavioral health condition, see 42 CFR Section 440.167.  PCS provides a range of services to a MAP eligible recipient who is unable to perform some or all activities of daily living (ADLs) or instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) because of a disability or a functional limitation.  A prescribed course of regular PCS services and daily living assistance supports the MAP eligible recipient to live in his or her home rather than an institution and allows him or her to achieve the highest possible level of independence.  These services include, but are not limited to, activities such as bathing, dressing, grooming, eating, toileting, shopping, transporting, caring for assistance animals, cognitive assistance, and communicating.  A MAP eligible recipient may be physically capable of performing ADLs or IADLs but may have limitations in performing these activities because of a cognitive impairment.  PCS services may be required because a cognitive impairment prevents a MAP eligible recipient from knowing when or how to carry out the task.  In such cases, PCS services may include cuing along with supervision to ensure that the MAP eligible recipient performs the task properly.

               A.           EPSDT PCS eligible providers:

                              (1)          agencies that meet the following conditions are eligible to enroll as providers and be reimbursed for providing EPSDT PCS services:

                              (2)          certification for participation as a medicare home health agency is not required; a MAP eligible recipient’s family member may not furnish PCS services to him or her; in this instance, a family member is defined as a legally responsible relative, such as parents of minor child or stepparent who is legally responsible for minor child; for a MAP eligible recipient 18 to 21 years of age, parents or other relatives may provide PCS services if they are not legally responsible for the MAP eligible recipient; the parent or another relative must be employed by a MAD approved PCS agency eligible to bill for PCS services and must meet all MAD required training and supervision standards.

               B.           EPSDT PCS attendant training:

                              (1)          The PCS agency is responsible for ensuring that the PCS attendant has completed a training program and is competent to provide assigned tasks as a PCS attendant specific to the MAP eligible recipient’s needs.

                              (2)          The PCS attendant training program must consist of no less than 40 hours of training to be completed by the PCS attendant in the first year of employment.  Ten hours of training must be completed prior to placing the employee in a MAP eligible recipient’s home.  Two of the 10 hours may include agency orientation.  Eight of the 10 hours of training must be specific to the MAP eligible recipient.

                                             (i)           home safety and fire protection; and

                                             (j)           electronic visit verification (EVV).

               C.           EPSDT PCS criteria:  PCS services are defined as medically necessary tasks pertaining to a MAP eligible recipient’s physical or cognitive functional ability.  The goal of the provision of care is to avoid institutionalization and maintain the MAP eligible recipient’s functional level.  Services are covered under specific criteria.
