Note: Services on this tab are listed individually for classification and pricing purposes to facilitate the population of the “Sample care costs” section. HHS specifies the Category in order to roll up costs into that category in the "Sample care costs" section so that those costs are uniform across all carriers and plans. However, some plans may classify that service under another category. The insurer should apply their cost sharing and benefit features for each policy in order to complete the “You pay” section, but must leave the "Sample care costs" section as is. Examples of cost sharing and benefit features include, but are not limited to: • Payment of services based on the location where they are provided (inpatient, outpatient, office, etc.) • Payment of items as prescription drugs vs. medical equipment Instructions to HHS for Completing the Columns: Date of Service - include Month/Day of service so insurers understand the order in which services are rendered. Do not include year. Diagnosis Code - include the ICD code for each service CPT code - include the CPT code for each service Provider Type - use one of the types listed on the "Provider Types" tab to classify each service by provider Category - use one of the categories listed on the "Sample Care Cost Categories" tab to classify each service so they roll up into the broader cost categories on the "Label and Assumptions" tab Notes - freeform field to include any special notes for that service Allowed Amount - include the total cost for each service that would be owed to providers that insurers will use to calculate cost-sharing |
