rental period can begin only in the following situations: specific incident of damage beyond repair (such as, 
dropped and broken, fire, flood, et cetera) or the item is stolen or lost; or a break-in-need for at least 60 days 
plus the days remaining in the month of discontinuation and new medical necessity is established. There is no

The rules say that providers/suppliers must report services correctly. Procedures should be reported with the 
Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code that describes the services performed. You can find this rule in 
the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Medicare National Correct Coding Initiative Policy Manual for 
Medicare Services, Chapter I(A). 
 
The rules say that an Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) payment status indicator is assigned to 
every HCPCS code. The status indicator identifies whether the service described by the HCPCS code is paid 
under the OPPS and if so, whether payment is made separately or packaged. The status indicator may also 
provide additional information about how the code is paid under the OPPS or under another payment system or 
fee schedule. For example, services with status indicator A are paid under a fee schedule or payment system 
other than the OPPS. Services with status indicator N are paid under the OPPS, but their payment is packaged 
into payment for a separately paid service. Services with status indicator T are paid separately under OPPS but 
a multiple procedure payment reduction applies when two or more services with a status indicator of T are 
billed on the same date of service. You can find this rule in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, 
Internet-Only Manual, Publication 100-04, Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 4, Section 10.1.1. 
 
The rules say that STV-packaged services are services for which separate payment is made only if there is no 
service with status indicator S, T, or V reported on the same claim. If a claim includes a service that is assigned 
status indicator S, T, or V reported on the same claim as the STV- packaged service, the payment for the STV-
packaged service is packaged into the payment for the service(s) with status indicator S, T, V and no separate 
payment is made for the STV-packaged service. STV-packaged services are assigned status indicator Q1. See 
the OPPS Webpage at http://www.cms.hhs.gov/HospitalOutpatientPPS/ for identification of STV-packaged codes. 
You can find this rule in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Internet-Only Manual,

manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention 
that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first, if applicable, followed by the manifestation. 
Wherever such a combination exists, there is a use additional code note at the etiology code, and a code 
first note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the 
codes, etiology followed by manifestation. You can find this information in the ICD-10-CM Official 
Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, Section I, Conventions, general coding guidelines and chapter specific 
guidelines.
