The Indiana Health Coverage Programs (IHCP) posted the following important information to the provider website at https://www.in.gov/medicaid/providers/ on December 18, 2018, (unless alternate date is noted). Banner Page BR201851 • IHCP to mass adjust claims to which patient liability deductions were applied incorrectly • IHCP clarifies guidance regarding NEMT services for members eligible for both Medicaid and Medicare The Indiana Health Coverage Programs (IHCP) has identified a claim-processing issue that affects certain fee-for-service (FFS) claims for long-term care services processed from February 13, 2017, through July 18, 2018. In error, patient liability was deducted from claims for certain members after the members’ patient liabilities were fulfilled.
The claim-processing system has been corrected. Claims for affected members processed during the indicated time frame will be mass adjusted. Providers should see the adjusted claims on Remittance Advices (RAs) beginning January 23, 2019, with internal control numbers (ICNs)/Claim IDs that begin with 52 (mass replacement noncheck related). For claims that were underpaid, the net difference will be paid and reflected on the RA. If providers collected excess patient liability amounts from members based on the initial adjudication of the affected claims, providers are required to refund the money to the members.
