Medicare Program; Prior Determination for Certain Items and Services

AGENCY: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), HHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This final rule establishes a process for Medicare contractors to provide eligible participating physicians and beneficiaries with a determination of coverage relating to medical necessity for certain physicians’ services before the services are furnished. This rule is intended to afford the physician and beneficiary the opportunity to know the financial liability for a service before expenses are incurred. This final rule establishes reasonable limits on physicians’ services for which a prior determination of coverage may be requested and discusses generally our plans for establishing the procedures by which those determinations may be obtained. This rule also responds to public comments on the August 30, 2005 proposed rule.

DATES: Effective Date: March 24, 2008.

I. Background

A. Background of Rulemaking

On August 30, 2005, we published a rule (70 FR 51321) proposing to implement section 938 of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) (Pub. L. 108–173, enacted on December 8, 2003), establishing the reasonable limits on physicians’ services for which a prior determination of coverage may be requested and we discussed our plans for establishing the procedures by which those determinations may be obtained.

The notice and comment period closed on October 29, 2005. We received seven timely public comments, which were useful in identifying issues and concerns. We have made changes to this final rule to address the public comments.
