included in the SNF PPS rate. The definition of DME in SS1861(n) of the Social Security Act (the Act) 
provides that DME is covered by Part B only when intended for use in the home, which explicitly does not 
include a SNF. This definition applies to oxygen also. You can find this rule in the Centers for Medicare and

should adjust their prepayment procedure edits as appropriate. You can find this rule in the Centers for 
Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only Manual, Publication 100-04, Medicare Claims Processing

The rules say that when durable medical equipment (DME) is furnished for use in a SNF during a covered Part 
A stay, the DME Regional Carriers (DMERCs) shall not make separate payment for DME, since the DME is 
already included in the payment that the SNF receives for the covered stay itself. When DME is furnished for 
use in a SNF during a noncovered stay (SNF benefits exhausted, no qualifying 3-day hospital stay, etc.), the 
DMERCs still shall not make separate payment for DME, as explained above, Part B's DME benefit does not 
cover DME items that are furnished for use in SNFs. Even if a patient already rents or owns a piece of DME in 
their home, the SNF cannot require the patient to bring their own rented or purchased DME with them into the 
SNF. You can find this rule in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Internet Only Manual, 
Publication 100-04, Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 20, Section 211.
