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 the provider, supplier, or beneficiary, as appropriate, must furnish to the intermediary or 
carrier sufficient information to determine whether payment is due and the amount of payment. You can find 
this rule at 42 CFR 424.5. 
 
The rules say for Medicare to consider coverage and payment for any item or service, the information 
submitted by the supplier or provider must corroborate the documentation in the beneficiary's medical 
documentation and confirm that Medicare coverage criteria have been met. You can see this in the Centers for 
Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only Manual, Publication 100-08, Medicare Program Integrity 
Manual Chapter 3, 3.3.2.1. 
 
The rules state that all SNF Part A inpatient services are paid under a prospective payment system (PPS). This 
involves payment based on a Health Insurance Prospective Payment System (HIPPS) rate code. Under the new 
Patient-Driven Payment Model (PDPM), which is effective for services provided on or after 10/1/2019, the 
HIPPS code is structured differently, as a result of there being five case-mix adjusted rate components under 
the revised model. The first position represents the Physical and Occupational Therapy case-mix group. The 
second position represents the Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) case-mix group. The third character 
represents the nursing case-mix group. The fourth character represents the Non-Therapy Ancillary (NTA) case-
mix group. The fifth character represents the assessment indicator code. You can find this information in the 
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service (CMS), Internet-Only Manual, Medicare Claims Processing 
Manual, Chapter 6, Sections 10, 30, and 120. 
 
The rules say that there is a 3 day assessment period for the items listed in Section GG. You can find this rule 
in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) Version 3.0 
Manual, Chapter 3.

The rules state that inpatient routine services in a hospital or skilled nursing facility generally are those services 
included in by the provider in a daily service charge--sometimes referred to as the "room and board" charge. 
Routine services are composed of two board components; (l) general routine services, and (2) special care units 
(SCU's), including coronary care units (CCU's) and intensive care Units (ICU's). Included in routine services 
are the regular room, dietary and nursing services, minor medical and surgical supplies, medical social services, 
psychiatric social services, and the use of certain equipment and facilities for which a separate charge is not 
customarily made. You can find this information in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet

The rules say that Medicare pays for care in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) when all of the following four factors are met:

1. The patient requires skilled nursing or skilled rehabilitation services;
2. The patient requires these services on a daily basis;
3. As a practical matter, the daily skilled services can be provided only on an inpatient basis in a SNF; and
4. The services are reasonable and necessary for the treatment of the patient's illness or injury or the services must be needed to establish a safe and effective maintenance program or to prevent the patient's condition from getting worse. 

You can find these rules at 42 CFR Section 409.31 and in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only Manual, Publication 100-02, Medicare Benefit Policy Manual, Chapter 8, Section 30.  

The rules say that custodial care is not covered. Custodial care is personal care for a person who does not need ongoing care from trained medical or paramedical staff. Custodial care serves to help with the activities of daily living. This means the care includes help in walking, getting in and out of bed, bathing, dressing, feeding, and using the toilet. Fixing meals and taking charge of medicine that usually can be self-administered are also custodial care services. You can find this rule in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only Manual, Publication 100-02, Medicare Benefit Policy Manual, Chapter 16, Section 110.

dentogingival junction, periodontal membrane, cementum of the teeth, and alveolar process. You can find this

The rules say that the following uses of real-time, outpatient cardiac telemetry are considered medically
reasonable and necessary:

1. Detection, characterization and documentation of symptomatic transient or paroxysmal dysrhythmia when
the frequency of the symptoms is limited and the use of a 24-hour ambulatory ECG is documented in the
medical record to be unlikely to capture and record the dysrhythmia, or
2. Other testing and/or monitoring/recording/telemetry has been unrevealing. The ordering physician must
document the prior testing performed and the results. This information must be maintained in the patient's
medical record and be available upon request, or
3. Prolonged monitoring is required specifically to ensure the absence of atrial fibrillation prior to the
discontinuation of anticoagulation therapy.

Telemetry (L34997) - Effective October 17, 2019.

provide clinical data or information beyond that which has already been obtained from a previous test or if
other testing (e.g., ECG, 24 hour Holter, etc.) could be expected to provide the data/information needed for the
diagnosis and/or treatment of the patient's condition/symptoms. You can find this rule in the the Local
