Coding and Reimbursement Policy Update

Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota (BCBSND) continually develops and revises coding and reimbursement policies and resources in response to rapidly changing medical technology and updates to the coding sets. Our commitment is to update the provider community as coding and reimbursement policies and guidelines are added, adopted and/or revised.

The following coding and reimbursement policy updates will become effective on the website within the next 45 days.

The changes below can be referenced in the updated policy.

  • Correct Coding Policy - Commercial
    • Added clarification regarding Enhanced Ambulatory Patient Group (EAPG) claim lines of the same code will be rejected when there is an overage of units billed over that code’s Medically Unlikely Edits (MUE) limit, when billed on the same date of service (DOS).
