An IRF that chooses the pre-claim review option must submit a pre-claim review request prior to
the submission of the final claim for payment. IRFs have an unlimited number of resubmissions
of the pre-claim review request prior to the final claim being submitted for payment.

Each beneficiary’s medical record at the IRF must contain the following documentation:

Serves as the primary documentation of the patient’s status prior to
admission and documents the specific reasons that led the IRF clinical
staff to conclude that the IRF admission was reasonable and necessary.
o Must include:
 Prior level of function
 Expected level of improvement
 Expected length of time to achieve that level of improvement
 Risk for clinical complications (detailed description)

why these require physician monitoring (detailed description)

Individualized overall plan of care
o The purpose of the overall plan of care is for the rehabilitation physician to
gather pertinent information that has been collected regarding the patient’s
medical and functional treatment needs and goals since the beginning of
admission and to synthesize this information into an overall plan of care that
will guide the patient’s treatment during the IRF stay.
o A non-physician practitioner can fulfill the IRF services and documentation
requirements currently required to be performed by the rehabilitation
physician in 42 CFR § 412.622(a)(3), (4), and (5). Therefore, of a nonphysician practitioner with the current definition of a rehabilitation physician
in that we expect the IRF to determine if the non-physician practitioner has
specialized training and experience in inpatient rehabilitation and may
perform any of the duties that are required to be performed by a rehabilitation
physician, provided that the duties are within the non-physician practitioner’s
scope of practice under applicable state law.
Resubmissions will require additional documentation, when available
o The overall plan of care:
 Additional information from the post-admission physician evaluation.
Information garnered from the assessments of all therapy disciplines
and other clinicians involved in treating the patient should be taken
into consideration as well.
