NUBC Proposal on proposed new Revenue Code IUBC voted no to adding a new revenue code for Day Programs during the last conference call. Pat indicated that we have joined a number of other state committees that agree with this decision. NUBC will review the suggestion of using a value code or condition code to address managed care s need. Cheryl Beckner asked if there had been a crosswalk of the 837 to Ub92, and was there anywhere to get additional information. She also stated that there were discrepancies between the 837 and the UB92 and that as you prepared for implementation you carefully review each of the data elements to determine if they are different, required versus optional, etc.
States can raise issues for discussion.
The UB92 surveys will be mailed next week. They will be sent to the CFO s with a note to the CEO s to ensure the survey is directed to the appropriate staff. In addition, an electronic version will be sent to the Public Health Department and the Illinois Department of Insurance. The goal is to process the results in January so that preliminary discussions can occur at the February NUBC meeting. V. New Business HCFA will be submitting a proposal for two new changes.
