I need help on this topic. Recently we rolled out BMI coding on patient claims for additional bonus reimbursement from our Medicaid MCO’s. That being said, we are being met with some resistance from a few providers where this is concerned because they feel that if we are including it on the claim, that it should be addressed in the visit. I am thinking it does not make a difference because this is not a procedure code, but rather a diagnosis code. Has anyone else had any experience with this? What are some thoughts where this is concerned. We are currently adding it to all adult claims and all well child visits. I do know that it should be added to any claim where weight is addressed, which until now, also was not being done and is now. Please help! Thank you!
