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 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section 422.101.

The rules say that Medicare pays for home health care services under a prospective payment system (HH PPS).
Home health services under a plan of care are paid based on a 60-day episode of care. Payment for home health
care episodes is usually made in two parts. To receive the first part of the HH PPS split payment, the home
health agency must submit a Request for Anticipated Payment (RAP). Specific data elements are required to
submit a RAP. The home health agency must enter the claim - Outcome and Assessment Information Set
(OASIS) matching key output by the Grouper software. This is known as the Treatment Authorization Code.
You can find this rule, a list of the data elements, and instructions for the Treatment Authorization Code in the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only Manual, Medicare Claims Processing Manual,
Chapter 10, Section 40.1.

The rules say that after a RAP has been paid and a 60-day episode has been completed or the enrollee has been
discharged, the home health agency must submit a claim to receive the rest of payment due for the episode.
You can find this rule and detailed instructions for the claim in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services, Internet Only Manual, Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 10, Section 40.2.

The rules also say that certain data elements are required. Any claim with incomplete, missing, or invalid
information for all of these elements may be returned as unprocessable. You can find this rule in the Centers
for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only Manual, Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 1,
Section 80.3.1.

HH claims must be submitted with Type of Bill 0329. The HH PPS claim will include elements submitted on
the RAP, and all other line-item details for the episode/period. You can find this rule in the Medicare Claims
Processing Manual, Chapter 10, 10.1.10.4.

The Plan contract says that the Plan covers items and services in accordance with Medicare rules. The Plan contract says that enrollees must pay a $750 deductible.

Until you have paid the deductible amount, you must pay the full cost of your covered services. Once you have paid your deductible, we will begin to pay our share of the costs for covered medical services and you will pay your share (your copayment or coinsurance amount) for the rest of the calendar year. There is a $35 copayment after the deductible is met for each Medicare-covered podiatry visit. You can find this information on pages 67-68 and 105 of the Plan's 2021 Evidence of Coverage (EOC).
