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 will not pay for dental services. Dental services are items and services involving 
the care, treatment, filling, removal or replacement of teeth or structures directly supporting the teeth. Medicare 
defines "structures directly supporting the teeth" as the periodontium, which includes the gingivae, 
dentogingival junction, periodontal membrane, cementum of the teeth, and alveolar process. You can find this 
rule in the Social Security Act, Section 1862(a)(12) and in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, 
Internet Only Manual, Publication 100-02, Medicare Benefit Policy Manual, Chapter 15, Section 150.

The Plan contract says that the Plan covers items and services in accordance with Medicare rules. The contract 
says that the Plan covers certain dental services as a supplemental (extra) benefit. This benefit states that your 
dental office will initiate a treatment plan or will initiate the specialty referral process with the Dental Plan if 
the services required are dentally necessary and outside the scope of general dentistry. You pay 80% of 
Specialist's Usual & Customary Fee per procedure when receiving specialty services approved by the Dental 
Plan through the specialty referral process. You can find this information in the Plans Dental Vendors 2022 
Benefit Schedule.

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 for relative value units (RVUs) for services paid on the Physician Fee Schedule (PFS), the 
work component of physicians' services means the portion of the resources used in furnishing the service that 
reflects physician time and intensity. Beginning in 1998, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) 
was required to develop resource-based RVUs for practice expenses (PE). These take into consideration 
general expenses, such as office rent and wages of personnel.  
 
Separate PE RVUs are established for services furnished in facility settings, such as an ambulatory surgical 
center (ASC), and in non-facility settings, such as a physician's office. The non-facility RVUs reflect all of the 
direct and indirect PEs involved in furnishing a service described by a particular code. The difference, if any, in 
these PE RVUs generally results in a higher payment in the non-facility setting because in the facility settings 
some resource costs are borne by the facility. Medicares payment to the facility would reflect costs typically 
incurred by the facility. Thus, payment associated with those specific facility resource costs is not made under 
the PFS. You can find this information in the 2021 Physician Fee Schedule Final Rule, Section II, Subsection 
A(1)(a-b).  
 
The rules also say that ASC services are under the ASC payment system, Medicare makes facility payments to 
ASCs only for the specific ASC covered surgical procedures on the ASC list of covered surgical procedures. In 
addition, Medicare makes separate payment to ASCs for certain covered ancillary services that are provided 
integral to a covered ASC surgical procedure. ASC services for which payment is included in the ASC 
payment for a covered surgical procedure include nursing, technician, and related services; and, Materials, 
including supplies and equipment for the administration and monitoring of anesthesia. You can find this 
information in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Internet-Only Manual, Publication 100-04, 
Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 14, Section 10.2.

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 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 Section 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. You can find this rule at 42 CFR Section 422.2.

The rules say effective for claims with dates of service July 1, 2007 and after, the non-Outpatient Prospective 
Payment System (OPPS) Outpatient Code Editor (OCE) will be integrated into the OPPS OCE. This 
integration will result in the routing of all institutional outpatient claims, including non-OPPS hospital claims, 
through a single integrated OCE eliminating the need to update two separate OCE software packages on a 
quarterly basis. You can find this rule in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only 
Manual, Publication 100-04, Medicare Claims Processing Manual Chapter 4, Section 40.1.  
 
The 'integrated' Outpatient Code Editor (I/OCE) program processes claims for all outpatient institutional 
providers including hospitals that are subject to the Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) as well as 
hospitals that are NOT (Non-OPPS). Claim will be identified as 'OPPS' or 'Non-OPPS' by passing a flag to the 
OCE in the claim record, 1=OPPS, 2=Non-OPPS; a blank, zero, or any other value is defaulted to 1. This 
version of the OCE processes claims consisting of multiple days of service. The OCE will perform three major 
functions:  
 
1. Edit the data to identify errors and return a series of edit flags.  
2. Assign an Ambulatory Payment Classification (APC) number for each service covered under OPPS and 
return information to be used as input to a PRICER program.  
3. Assign an Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC) payment group for services on claims from certain Non-OPPS 
hospitals.  
 
Edit 72: Service not billable to the Medicare Administrative Contractor. A code has a status indicator M. This 
edit is bypassed when the bill type is 85x and revenue code is 096x, 097x, or 098x. This edit is also bypassed when the bill type is 81X or 82X and the revenue code is 657. You can find this rule at CMS.gov Integrated 
OCE (IOCE) CMS Specifications V22.2 effective July 1, 2021.
