Okla. Admin. Code § 317:30-5-356

Current through Vol. 41, No. 19, June 17, 2024
Section 317:30-5-356 - Coverage for adults

Payment is made to RHCs for adult services as set forth in this Section.

(1)RHC services. Payment is made for one (1) encounter per member per day. Payment is also limited to four (4) visits per member per month. This limit may be exceeded if the SoonerCare Choice member has elected the RHC as his/her/their Patient Centered Medical Home/Primary Care Provider. Preventive service exceptions include:
(A)Obstetrical care. An RHC should have a written contract with its physician, PA, APRN, or CNM that specifically identifies how obstetrical care will be billed to SoonerCare, in order to avoid duplicative billing situations. The agreement should also specifically identify the physician's compensation for RHC and other ambulatory services.
(i) If the clinic compensates the physician, PA, APRN, or CNM to provide obstetrical care, then the clinic must bill the SoonerCare program for each prenatal visit using the appropriate CPT evaluation and management codes.
(ii) If the clinic does not compensate its practitioners to provide obstetrical care, then the independent practitioner must bill the OHCA for prenatal care according to the global method described in the SoonerCare provider specific rules for physicians, PAs, APRNs and CNMs (refer to OAC 317:30-5-22) .
(iii) Under both billing methods, payment for prenatal care includes all routine or minor medical problems. No additional payment is made to the prenatal provider except in the case of a major illness distinctly unrelated to pregnancy.
(B)Family planning services. Family planning services are available only to members with reproductive capability. Family planning visits do not count as one (1) of the four (4) RHC visits per month.
(2)Other ambulatory services. These services are not considered a part of an RHC visit; therefore, these may be billed to the SoonerCare program by the RHC or service provider on the appropriate claim form. Refer to OAC 317:30-1, General Provisions, and OAC 317:30-3-57, 317:30-5-59, and 317:30-3-60 for general coverage and exclusions under the SoonerCare program. Some specific limitations are applicable to other ambulatory services as set forth in specific provider rules and excerpted as follows:
(A) Coverage under optometrists for adults is limited to treatment of eye disease not related to refractive errors.
(B) There is no coverage for eye exams for the purpose of prescribing eyeglasses, contact lenses or other visual aids. (See OAC 317:30-5-431.)
