The rules also say that Medicare will allow beneficiaries to pay additional charges (which are non-covered by
Medicare as these additional charges are not part of a Medicare benefit category) for insertion of Astigmatism-
Correcting Intraocular Lenses (A-C IOLs). For an IOL inserted following removal of a cataract in a hospital, on
either an outpatient or inpatient basis, that is paid under the hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System
(OPPS) or the Inpatient Prospective Payment System (IPPS), respectively; or in a Medicare-approved
ambulatory surgical center (ASC) that is paid under the ASC fee schedule Medicare does not make separate
payment to the hospital or ASC for an IOL inserted subsequent to extraction of a cataract. Payment for the IOL
is packaged into the payment for the surgical cataract extraction/lens replacement procedure. For a P-C IOL or
A-C IOL inserted subsequent to removal of a cataract in a hospital, on either an outpatient or inpatient basis,
that is paid under the OPPS or the IPPS, respectively; or in a Medicare-approved ASC that is paid under the
ASC fee schedule:
-The facility shall bill for the removal of a cataract with insertion of a conventional IOL, regardless of whether
a conventional, P-C IOL, or A-C IOL is inserted. When a beneficiary receives a P-C or A-C IOL following
removal of a cataract, hospitals and ASCs shall report the same CPT code that is used to report removal of a
cataract with insertion of a conventional IOL. Effective for A-C IOL insertion services on or after January 1,
2008, physicians, hospitals and ASCs should use V2787 to report any additional charges that accrue. You can
find these rules in the Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 32, Section 120-120.2.
The rules also say that Medicare will pay the same amount for cataract extraction with A-C IOL insertion that it
pays for cataract extraction with conventional IOL insertion. You can find this rule in the Medicare Learning
Network (MLN) Matters Bulletin Number: MM5527.
