The Hospice Provider Manual is specifically for hospice providers to reference proper billing procedures, how to submit claims to the Division of Adult Services and Aging and to help answer any questions these providers may have.
Please note: The long-term care claim form will no longer be required for billing room and board for residents of nursing facilities who have elected the hospice benefit. The UB-04 claim form should be used when billing all hospice claims. The Hospice Provider Manual is not meant to replace the full hospice coverage criteria, which is specified in the State Medicaid Manual, Sections 4305 through 4308. Visit the
CMS web site for the criteria.
