Okla. Admin. Code § 317:30-5-23

Current through Vol. 42, No. 4, November 1, 2024

Section 317:30-5-23 - Newborn care

Claims for newborn care and circumcision are filed under the newborn's SoonerCare member ID number.

(1) When there is a newborn child and the mother is receiving SoonerCare benefits, an OKDHS form 08MA015E (FSS-NB-1) or other notification must be submitted to the county OKDHS office. If the mother is not already receiving SoonerCare benefits, an application will need to be completed. Services are billed using the appropriate codes contained in the Physician's Current Procedural Terminology (CPT).

(2) Neonatal intensive care codes (contained in the CPT) are used to report neonatal intensive care services. Certain procedures are bundled into the relevant inpatient neonatal critical care evaluation and management codes and are not reimbursed separately. All other medically-necessary procedures provided are considered for reimbursement using recognized coding and/or editing logic. Additional payment is allowed for standby at Cesarean Section, attendance at delivery or newborn resuscitation.

(3) Payment may be made for an evaluation and management service and newborn circumcision provided by the same provider on the same date of service.
