Monthly Claims Care Coordination Data (CCCD) Partner Meeting March 2014

Meeting Objective

Meeting Organization

Please attempt to submit questions online during the webinar.

These slides will be modified to include any updates as the result of today's discussion and will be posted on the CCCD Data Webpage within the next two days.

Medicare in CCCD Update

Medicare data will be included in the April run (to occur by 4/7/2014). Issues currently being addressed include:

  • Testing of Pharmacy and Main claims complete. HFS is now completing testing of remaining files.

General Comments:

#1 Service Line Number and Revenue Code Table

Question:  I am not seeing any records on the Revenue Codes table that have a service line number that is anything other than 00. 

Answer:  Institutional claims don't have a line number. They are billed at the claim level and HFS fills in the line number with "00".

#2 Service Units and Institutional Claims

Question: Is there not supposed to be service units for Institutional claims or is that found on a different table? There is one on the NIPS but not on the institutional.  I thought perhaps that it would be based on the revenue code but that does not seem to be the case.  I thought that maybe for items like bed days there would be maybe multiple records for the claims, but that does not seem to be the case either.

Answer: For inpatient claims we usually count services as either admissions or covered days. We didn't include covered days in the current layout and will list this as an improvement suggestion for a future release. Admissions can be calculated by counting as one admission any record with a UBTypeofBillCd where the last byte is 1 (admit through discharge claim) or 2 (first in a series bill).

#3 Timeframe for Claims

Question: The time frame for the claims seems to be all over the place. There seem to be records going back to 2006 and 2007, which should be outside of the time frame that the cover sheet said should be covered. 

Answer: Records go back to 2006/2007 because we also send a 7 year history on immunizations.

#4 When Do Adjustments Occur?

Question: (This question is from a plan newly getting data) On the first historical file coming, will there be adjustments for the incoming data or will the file it be blank and all adjustments are already accounted for?  

Answer: The first file will not have any adjustments, the subsequent files can have records in the adjustment file, if the claims previously sent have either been voided or adjusted

#5 Multiple Adjustments and DCN

Question: Can one claim have multiple adjustments so the DCN can show up multiple times in the header claim for example?

Answer: Its rare but possible for one claim to have multiple adjustments. If multiple adjustments show up, applying them sequentially (using adjudicated date to order the file) or applying the one with the highest adjudicated date will have the same impact as the new NetLiability amount is supplied in the adjustment files. 

Additional Medicare Note

HFS will send an email update about Medicare and CCCD prior to the April CCCD release. It will be sent to everyone who received an invite to this webinar.
