MHCP Provider Update LTC-09-02
Long Term Care E3 Changes
July 16, 2009

Minnesota E3 requires Minnesota providers to submit standard, electronic-only billing effective July 15, 2009. MHCP is implementing changes for nursing facility providers that will impact long term care room and board claims with dates of service on and after July 1, 2009, to accommodate E3 standards. You must refer to and follow UB-04 guidelines for the level of care revenue codes. The UB-04 Manual is copyrighted by and available through the NUBC. Due to copyright laws, MHCP cannot supply the descriptions. To ensure appropriate coding, nursing staff may need to inform billing staff of appropriate codes to use for billing.
