| Billing for Ancillary Bedside Procedures Denise Williams, RN, COC Hospitals are often concerned that charging separately for bedside procedures will be considered “double dipping”—perhaps rightfully so, because the rules can be complex. As a result, hospitals frequently miss payment for services that can be billed and reported separately by rolling them into charges for room-related or observation services. However, CMS allows facilities to line-report many items that are often thought of as outpatient nursing services (e.g., injections, transfusions, and certain supplies) for both inpatients and outpatients. |

| The Billing for Ancillary Bedside Procedures training handbook will help staff understand CMS’ guidelines and regulations and provide guidance for development of policies and procedures to ensure that bedside procedures are billed appropriately. The handbook includes a sample policy with explanations and step-by-step instructions, as well as a clear explanation of Medicare's complex rules governing separate charges for bedside procedures. This handbook educates its readers on when and how to bill separately for bedside procedures and is delivered in an easy-to-reference and distributable format.
