The purpose of this letter is to notify nursing facility providers that effective February 1, 2016, all Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) standing frame/table systems and positioning devices/wedges approved by the Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) on or after November 1, 2015, must be billed using the billing information below.
Nursing facility providers must continue to bill all other PASRR durable medical equipment (DME) using the existing billing information provided below. Refer to the Long Term Care (LTC) Bill Code Crosswalk for complete details. To ensure the Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership (TMHP) does not deny a claim for services due to a lack of authorization, nursing facility providers should continue to review the resident’s Medicaid Eligibility and Service Authorization Verification (MESAV) to verify a service authorization has been created before billing.
