CMS Issues FAQ on Manual Medical Review
CMS has added a frequently asked questions (FAQ) document to its Therapy Cap webpage regarding manual medical review for outpatient therapy claims that exceed $3,700. This document provides responses to questions regarding the process that the Recovery Audit Contractors (RACs) will use to review claims under the manual medical review process in 2013.
CMS also has established an e-mail box to which providers can submit additional questions, which is therapycapreview@cms.hhs.gov.
