The rules say that plans must pay for a medical service or item if regular Medicare would pay for it in this case. You can find this rule at 42 CFR 422.101.
The rules say that an inpatient admission is generally appropriate when the admitting physician expects the patient to need hospital care that crosses at least two midnights. The expectation should be based on such complex medical factors as medical history, the severity of signs and symptoms, current medical needs, and medical risk. The factors must be documented in the medical record. If an unforeseen event, such as a patient's death or transfer, results in a shorter stay, the patient may be considered to be treated as an inpatient. An inpatient admission for a surgical procedure listed by Medicare as "inpatient only" is generally appropriate, regardless of the length of stay. An inpatient admission may be appropriate if the admitting physician expects a patient to require hospital care for only a limited period of time. The decision to admit as an inpatient must be based on the clinical judgment of the physician and must be supported by the medical record. You can find this rule at 42 CFR 412.3. The rules say a health plan must disclose to its enrollees in clear, accurate terms all cost-sharing information (such as copayments, deductibles and coinsurance). You can find this rule at 42 CFR 422.111(a) and (b). The rules say that a copayment is a fixed amount charged to an enrollee on a per-service basis. The rules say that coinsurance is a fixed percentage of the total amount paid for a health care service that can be charged to an enrollee on a per-service basis.
