                                                    Under IP PPS, inpatient hospital services are paid based on
                                                    a predetermined rate per discharge, using the DRG patient
                                                    classification system and the PRICER program.   On the IP
                                                    PPS claim, the payment amount includes the DRG outlier

                                                    PPS capital (since 10/1/91).  After 4/1/03, the payment
                                                    amount could also include a "new technology" add-on amount.
                                                    After 7/5/2011, the payment amount could also include
                                                    a payment adjustment given to hospitals to account for
                                                    the higher costs per discharge for "low-income hospitals".
                                                    After 10/1/2012, the payment amount could also include

                                                    10/1/2014, the payment amount could also include the
                                                    uncompensated care payment (UCP).

                                                    It does NOT include the pass-thru amounts (i.e., capital-

                                                    any other payer reimbursement.

                                                    Under IRFPPS, inpatient rehabilitation services are paid
                                                    based on a predetermined rate per discharge, using the
                                                    Case Mix Group (CMG) classification system and the PRICER
                                                    program.  From the CMG on the IRF PPS claim, payment is
                                                    based on a standard payment amount for operating and
                                                    capital cost for that facility (including routine and
                                                    ancillary services).   The payment is adjusted for wage,
                                                    the % of low-income patients (LIP), locality, transfers,
                                                    interrupted stays, short stay cases, deaths, and high
                                                    cost outliers.   Some or all of these adjustments could
                                                    apply.  The CMG payment does NOT include certain pass-
                                                    through costs (i.e. bad debts, approved education
                                                    activities); beneficiary-paid amounts, other payer reim-

                                                    Under LTCH PPS, long term care hospital services are paid
                                                    based on a predetermined rate per discharge based on the
                                                    DRG and the PRICER program.   Payments are based on a
                                                    single standard Federal rate for both inpatient operating
                                                    and capital-related costs (including routine and ancillary
                                                    services), but do NOT include certain pass-through costs
                                                    (i.e. bad debts, direct medical education, new technologies
                                                    and blood clotting factors).  Adjustments to the payment
                                                    may occur due to short-stay outliers, interrupted stays,

                                                    Under SNF PPS, SNFs will classify beneficiaries using the
                                                    patient classification system known as RUGS III.  For the
                                                    SNF PPS claim, the SNF PRICER will calculate/return the rate

                                                    Under Outpatient PPS, the national ambulatory payment
                                                    classification (APC) rate that is calculated for each APC
                                                    group is the basis for determining the total claim payment.
                                                    The payment amount also includes the outlier payment and
                                                    interest.

                                                    Under Home Health PPS, beneficiaries will be classified into
                                                    an appropriate case mix category known as the Home Health
                                                    Resource Group.  A HIPPS code is then generated
                                                    corresponding to the case mix category (HHRG).

                                                    For the RAP, the PRICER will determine the payment amount
                                                    appropriate to the HIPPS code by computing 60% (for first
                                                    episode) or 50% (for subsequent episodes) of the case mix
                                                    episode payment.  The payment is then wage index adjusted.

                                                    For the final claim, PRICER calculates 100% of the amount
                                                    due, because the final claim is processed as an adjustment
                                                    to the RAP, reversing the RAP payment in full.  Although
                                                    final claim will show 100% payment amount, the provider will
                                                    actually receive the 40% or 50% payment. The payment may
                                                    also include outlier payments.

                                                    instead of the actual payment to the MCO.

                                                    bundled payment for both Part A and Part B services.

                                                    the clinical characteristics of the beneficiary.
                                                    The HIPPS rate/CMG code (AXXYY - DXXYY) must contain

                                                    with comorbidity for Tier 1.  The 'C' is defined
                                                    as comorbidity for Tier 2 and 'D' is defined as
                                                    comorbidity for Tier 3.  The 'XX' in the HIPPS
                                                    rate code is the Rehabilitation Impairment Code

                                                    has been approved by FDA to conduct a clinical
                                                    trial on that device.   HCFA established a new
                                                    policy of covering certain IDE's which was
                                                    implemented in claims processing on 10/1/96
                                                    (which is NCH weekly process 10/4/96) for service
                                                    dates beginning 10/1/95.  IDE's are always
                                                    associated with revenue center code '0624'.

                                                    center code '0624' trailer was created to store
                                                    IDE's.   The IDE number was housed in two fields:
                                                    HCPCS code and HCPCS initial modifier; the second
                                                    modifier contained the value 'ID'.  There can be
                                                    up to 7 distinct IDE numbers associated with an
                                                    '0624' dummy trailer.  During the Version H con-
                                                    version IDE's were moved from the dummy '0624'
                                                    trailer to this dedicated field.

              difference between the two amounts.
      29.18 = The amount listed in the "You May Be
              Billed" column assumes that your primary
              insurer paid the provider. If your

              to your primary insurer first.
      29.6  = Our records show that Medicare is your
              secondary payer. Services provided

              underpayment was made, the attached
              check pays the total claim allowed minus
              the amount originally paid. If an
              overpayment requiring a refund was made

      30.41 = What Medicare pays for a service or item
              may be higher than the billed amount.
              This amount is correct. Medicare pays
              this provider less than the billed amount
              on other claims since payment rates are
              set in advance for certain services and

              amount charged.
      31.12 = The previous notice we sent stated the
              amount you could be charged for this

              item from a non-winning supplier under

              that Medicare probably would deny payment
              , you may be entitled to a refund of any
              amounts you paid. However, if the
              provider/supplier requests a review of
              this claim within 30 days, a refund is
              not required until we complete our review
              . If you paid for this service and do not
              hear anything about a refund within the
              next 30 days, contact your provider/
              supplier.

              and this item must be provided by a

              shouldn't be billed for this item or
              service. You don't have to pay this
              amount. Medicare appeal rights don't

      Y = Diagnosis was present at the time of inpatient admission.

      N = Diagnosis was not present at the time of inpatient admission.
          CMS will not pay the CC/MCC DRG for those selected HACs that

          12/31/10, the MQR process assigned a 'U' to those POAs that came
          in blank.  They did this because of the POA/DGNS issue.

      W = Clinically undetermined. Provider is unable to clinically determine
          whether condition was present at the time of inpatient admission.

          effective 10/1/11 are currently being returned to provider
          requesting a valid POA indicator.   CMS has created a
          workaround to resolve this issue by adding a POA indicator 'W'
          to the affected ICD-9 code instead of leaving it blank.

      1 = Unreported/not used - diagnosis codes exempt from POA reporting --
          This code is equivalent to a blank on the UB-04, however,
          it was determined that blanks are undesirable when submitting
          this data via the 4010A.
          CMS will not pay the CC/MCC DRG for those selected HACs that
          are coded as '1' for the POA Indicator. The '1' POA Indicator
          should not be applied to any codes on the HAC list.
          Obsolete eff. 1/3/11

      0 = This value was created by the NCH front-end system to replace
          a blank received in the POA field.

             reasonably been expected to know, that
             we would not pay for this service; or -
             If you notified the patient in writing
             before providing the service that you
             believed that we were likely to deny the
             service, and the patient signed a
             statement agreeing to pay for the
             service.
             If you come within either exception, or
             if you believe the carrier was wrong in
             its determination that we do not pay for
             this service, you should request appeal
             of this determination within 30 days of
             the date of this notice. Your request

             favorable to you, you do not need to
             make any refund. If, however, the review
             is unfavorable, the law specifies that
             you must make the refund within 15 days
             of receiving the unfavorable review
             decision.
             The law also permits you to request an
             appeal at any time within 120 days of

             However, an appeal request that is

           date 10/1/93-10/30/95, where MSP values =
           invalid '0', '1', '2', '3' or '4' (caused
           by erroneous logic in HCFA program code,
           which was corrected on 11/1/95).
      09 = Zero CWF claim accretion date replaced with
           NCH weekly process date (all claim types)
           -- applied during Version 'H' conversion to

           edit group, 3rd occurrence, position 1.
      10 = Multiple Revenue Center 0001 (Outpatient,
           HHA and Hospice) -- patch applied to 1998 &
           1999 Nearline and SAFs to delete any revenue
           codes that followed the first '0001' revenue
           center code.   The edit was applied across all
           institutional claim types, including Inpatient/
           SNF (the problem was only found with OP/HHA/
           Hospice claims).  The problem was corrected
           6/25/99.
      11 = Truncated claim total charge amount in the

           amount in the revenue center 0001 amount field
           -- service years 1998 & 1999 patched during
           quarterly merge.  The 1998 & 1999 SAFs were
           corrected when finalized in 7/99.  The patch
           was done for records with NCH Daily Process
           Date 1/4/99 - 5/14/99.
      12 = Missing claim-level HHA Total Visit Count --
           service years 1998, 1999 & 2000 patch applied
           during Version 'I' conversion of both the
           Nearline and SAFs.   Problem occurs in those
           claims recovered during the missing claims
           effort.
      13 = Inconsistent Claim MCO Paid Switch made consistent
           with criteria used to identify an inpatient
           encounter claim -- if MCO paid switch equal to blank
           or '0' and ALL conditions are met to indicate an
           inpatient encounter claim (bene enrolled in a risk
           MCO during the service period), change the switch to
           a '1'.  The patch was applied during the Version 'I'
           conversion, for claims back to 7/1/97 service thru date.

      14 = SNF claims incorrectly identified as Inpatient
           Encounter claims -- SNF claims matching the Inpatient
           encounter data criteria were incorrectly identified
           as Inpatient encounter claims (claim type code = '61'
           instead of '20' or '30').   NOTE:  if the SNF claims
           were identified the MCO paid switch was set to '1'.
           The patch was applied to correctly identify these
           claims as a '20' or '30'.  The MCO paid switch will
           be set to '0' as there is no way to recover the original
           value.  The problem occurred in claims with an NCH
           Weekly Process Date ranging from 7/7/2000 - 1/26/2001.
           The patch applied date is 03/30/2001.

      15 = HHA Part A claims with overlaid revenue center lines -
           During the Version 'I' conversion, NCH made each
           segment of a claim contains a maximum of 45 revenue
           lines.  During the month of June 2000 our CWFMQA had
           to be ready to except the new expanded format, but the
           NCH was not ready.  CWFMQA converted these 'I' claims
           back to Version 'H', a typo in the code caused the
           additional revenue lines to overlay some of the
           revenue lines on the base/initial record/segment.
           The problem occurred in claims with NCH Weekly Process
           dates from 6/16/00, 6/23/00, 6/30/00 and 7/7/00
           (both Version 'H' & 'I' files).

           In the Version 'I' files, the annual service year
           2000 files, service year 1999 and 1998 trickles were
           patched.  The 18-month service year 1999 was also
           patched (the service year 2000 SAF was created after
           the fix was applied).

           The patch applied date is 06/29/2001.

      and are not billed to the patient.

      CR = Corrections and Reversals -- this group code should
      be used for correcting a prior claim.  It applies
      when there is a change to a previously adjudicated
      claim.

      OA = Other Adjustments -- this group code should be used
      when no other group code applies to the adjustment.

      PI = Payer Initiated Reductions -- this group code should
      be used when, in the opinion of the payer, the adjust-
      ment is not the responsibility of the patient, but
      there is no supporting contract between the provider
      and the payer (i.e., medical review or professional
      review organization adjustments).

      PR = Patient Responsibility -- this group should be used
      when the adjustment represents an amount that should
      be billed to the patient or insured.  This group
      would typically be used for deductible and copay

      A = A valid HCPCS code not subject to a fee schedule payment.
      Reimbursement is calculated on provider submitted
      charges.

      B = A valid HCPCS code subject to the fee schedule payment.
      for the provider billed charges. NOTE: There is an excep-
      tion for Critical Access Hospitals (provider numbers
      XX1300-XX1399) with reimbursement method 'J' (all-
      inclusive method) and dates of service on or after
      7/1/01.  In these situations, reimbursement for pro-
      fessional services (revenue codes 96X, 97X, 98X) is
      always at the fee schedule amount of logic is not
      applicable.

      C = Unlisted Rehabilitation Carrier Priced HCPCS

      D = a valid radiology HCPCS code subject to the Radiology
      Pricer and the rate is reflected as zeroes on the HCPCS
      file and cost report.  The Radiology Pricer treates this
      HCPCS as a non-covered service.  Reimbursement is cal-
      culated on provider submitted charges.

      E = A valid ASC HCPCS code subject to the ASC Pricer. The
      rate is reflected as zeroes on the HCPCS file.  The
      ASC Pricer determines the ASC payment rate and is re-
      ported on the cost report.

      F = A valid ESRD HCPCS code subject to the parameter rate.
      Reimbursement is the lesser of provider submitted
      charges or the fee schedule amount for non-dialysis
      HCPCS.  Reimbursement is calculated on the provider
      file rates for dialysis HCPCS.

      NOTE: The ESRD Pricing Indicator is used when process-
      ing the ESRD claim. The non-ESRD pricing indicator
      is used only for Inpatient claims as follows: valid
      Hemophilia HCPCS for inpatient claim only and code is
      summed to parameter rate.

      G = A valid HCPCS, code is subject to a fee schedule, but
      the rate is no longer present on the HCPCS file.
      Reimbursement is calculated on provider submitted
      charges.

      H = A valid DME HCPCS, code is subject to a fee schedule.
      The rates are reflected under the DME segment.  Reim-
      bursement is calculated either on a fee schedule, pro-
      vider submitted charges or the lesser of provider
      submitted, or the fee schedule depending on the cate-
      gory of DME.

      I = A valid DME category 5 HCPCS, HCPCS is not found on
      the DME history record, but a match was found on HIC,
      category and generic code.  Claim must be reviewed by
      Medical Review before payment can be calculated.

      J = A valid DME HCPCS, no DME history is present, and a
      prescription is required before delivery.  Claim must
      be reviewed by Medical Review.

      K = A valid DME HCPCS, prescribed has been reviewed, and
      fee schedule payment is approved as prescription was
      present before delivery.

      L = A valid TENS HCPCS, rental period is six months or
      greater and must be reviewed by Medical Review. This
      code will be automatically set by the system.

      M = A valid TENS HCPCS, Medical Review has approved the
      rental charge in excess of five months. This must be
      set by Medical Review.  This must be set by Medical
      Review when approved for payment.

      N = Paid based on the fee amount for non ESRD TOB's.
          NOTE: Fee amount is paid regardless of charges.

      Q = Manual pricing

      R = A valid radiology HCPCS code and is subject to
      APC.  The rate is reported on the cost report.
      Reimbursement is calculated on provider submitted
      charges.

      S = Valid influenza/PPV HCPCS.  A fee amount is not
      applicable.  The amount payable is present in the
      covered charge field.  This amount is not subject
      to the coinsurance and deductible.  This charge is
      subject to the provider's reimbursement rate.

      T = Valid HCPCS.  A fee amount is present.  The amount
      payable should be the lower of the billed charge or
      fee amount.  The system should compute the fee amount
      by multiplying the covered units times the rate.
      The fee amount is not subject to coinsurance and
      deductible or provider's reimbursement rate.

      U = Valid ambulance HCPCS. A fee amount is present.
      The amount payable is a blended amount based on  a
      percentage of the fee schedule and a percentage of
      the reasonable cost.  The fee amount is subject to
      coinsurance and deductible.

      X = Unclassified drug as subject to manual pricing.

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     A programming error created an 'INVALID' indication
                                     in the demo text field for CHOICES claims.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     In 6/00, the CWFMQA front-end editing revealed that some
                                     CHOICES demo claims were coming in with a valid 'H'
                                     number in the fixed portion of the claims, but in the
                                     first occurrence MCO trailer a numeric packed field
                                     (value hex '0100000C') was moved to the MCO Contract
                                     Number/Option Code fields.   This created an invalid
                                     period check of number/code to MCO effective date,
                                     resulting in an INVALID indication in the demo info
                                     text field.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     The problem was forwarded to the CWF BSOG staff
                                     for further investigation.

                                     DESCRIPTION:
                                     Missing present on admission (POA) indicators on the NCH claims.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     A problem has been discovered with the Inpatient claims received
                                     from CWF from July 6, 2009 through October 4, 2009. The
                                     claims received during this timeperiod have no POA indicators.
                                     The problem was a result of a defect in the conversion code
                                     used by CWF to convert the new 5010 record format back to the
                                     4010 format for the NCH. The reason CWF was converting the
                                     claims to the 4010 format was because they implemented the 5010
                                     format beginning in July 2009 but the NCH is still using
                                     the 4010 until 1/3/2011.

                                     CORRECTIVE ACTION:
                                     CWF will be sending in adjustment claims to correct the
                                     problem.  The claims will come into the NCH the week of
                                     December 19, 2009.  There were approximately 3 million
                                     claims missing the POA indicator.

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     The principal procedure perform date is missing from all
                                     Inpatient/SNF claims processed from January 1/2012
                                     through March 31, 2012.  Service years involved are 2011
                                     and 2012.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     Back in February 2012, a data user of our NCH 100% Monthly
                                     TAP file noticed that the principal procedure perform
                                     date was missing on the Inpatient/SNF claims starting in
                                     January 2012.  After further investigation by CWF, it
                                     was discovered the problem originated from a coding
                                     change in the CWF January 2012 Quarterly Release.

                                     In March 2013, another data user realized the date was
                                     missing from the claims.  The principal procedure date
                                     is a critical data element for this data user and
                                     their Value Based Purchasing Project.  They asked
                                     if we could have CWF send in adjustments to correct
                                     those erroneous claims.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     This issue is being resolved in two Phases:
                                     (1) Because CWF accidently stripped the principal
                                     procedure date from the claims, FISS will need to
                                     provide the date to data user.  The data user pulled
                                     claims information (HICN, from/thru date, etc.) from
                                     the NCH SAF to create a "trigger" file for FISS to
                                     use to pull the claims from their system to capture
                                     the principal procedure date.   FISS will update the
                                     trigger file with the missing date so the user can
                                     include the date in their algorithms to produce their
                                     payment measures.

                                     (2) FISS will provide the "trigger" file to CWF so they
                                     can create credit/debit claims for the NCH.  NCH will
                                     update the 2011 and 2012 SAF to include those adjustments.

                                     SNF Version 'I' claims were incorrectly identified in
                                     the NCH Nearline as Inpatient encounter claims.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     SNF claims matching the Inpatient encounter data criteria
                                     were incorrectly identified as Inpatient encounters (NCH
                                     Claim Type Code is '61', rather than '20' or '30').
                                     If the SNF claims were identified as Inpatient encounters,
                                     the MCO Paid Switch was set to '1'.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     The problem was corrected during the NCH quarterly
                                     update in March 2001.  The NCH Claim Type was correctly
                                     identified as '20' or '30'.   The MCO Paid Switch was
                                     changed to '0'.  A patch code trailer was added to the
                                     record: Patch Code '14' and a patch apply date of

                                     It was brought to our attention in May 2012, that the
                                     expected volume of cancel claims (query code '0') was
                                     drastically reduced in the Inpatient claims files sent
                                     from CWF to NCH from April 2nd to May 8th.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     It was our understanding at the time the issue was first
                                     raised, in May, there were missing cancel claims on the
                                     April files.

                                     In November 2012, we were notified by another data user
                                     that it appeared not all of the cancel claims were sent
                                     in the "special" file (received in May) so the problem
                                     still remained.  After further investigation, we deter-
                                     mined from CWF that the cancel claims were not truly
                                     missing from the April - May files, but the query code
                                     on those claims was incorrectly set for claims with an
                                     Action code of 4 or 6 which caused the appearance of
                                     a decrease in cancel claims.   Claims with an action
                                     code of 4 or 6 should only have a query code of '0'.

                                     It was determined that the CWF Spell Rewrite changes
                                     implemented with the CWF April 2012 Quarterly release
                                     was creating query codes of '0', '1', '3' and '5' for
                                     action codes 4 and 6.

                                     When CWF created the utility to fix the problem re-
                                     ported in May, they pulled all claims processed from
                                     the timeframe of 4/2/12 - 5/8/12 that had an action
                                     code of 4 or 6 and changed the query code to a '0'.
                                     Not knowing that the issue with the original files
                                     was the claims were there but the query code was set
                                     incorrectly, we processed the special file through
                                     our systems and loaded the data into our repositories.
                                     This means we have the claims with the incorrect
                                     query code and the same claims (from the special
                                     file) with the correct query code.

                                     This issue caused a problem for users who were trying
                                     to create debit/credit pairs instead of using the
                                     standard final action routine.  OIS/EDG/DDOM ran
                                     a subset of the problem claims through our final
                                     action algorithm and it appears that the claim are
                                     falling out correctly during SAF processing.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     Once the original issue was brought to our attention in
                                     May, we notified CWF of the "missing" cancel claims. CWF
                                     put in an emergency fix on May 8th to correct the
                                     problem going forward.  They also ran a utility to create
                                     the "special" file of the cancel claims and sent the file
                                     to the NCH on Saturday, May 12th.  The special file pro-
                                     cessed through the NCH with the May data load.

                                     As for the 2nd data user notification in November 2012, we
                                     notified CWF of the miscommunication of the exact problem
                                     with the original data.  It was determined that CWF could
                                     unable to create adjustments to back out the incorrect
                                     claims sent in the original files.  CWF no longer had
                                     the special file they created, so they had no way of
                                     identifying the claims that needed to be adjusted.
                                     It was determined that users who were doing debit/credit
                                     pairing instead of using the NCH SAFs could remove the
                                     incorrect claims by using the following criteria:

                                     Pull any claims with an NCH Weekly Process Date of April
                                     6th, April 13, April 20th, April 27th, May 4th, May 11th
                                     or May 18th that has an Action Code of 4 or 6 and Claim
                                     Query Codes of '1', '3' or '5'.

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     It was determined that providers were not complying with
                                     the 15-minute increment billing instructions for using
                                     the 'G' HCPCS codes.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     The instructions state that providers are to use the
                                     newly created 'G' codes to identify services of the six
                                     home health disciplines during an HH episode of care.
                                     These 'G' codes (G0151, G0152, G0153, G0154, G0155,
                                     G0156) are subject to 15-minute interval billing.  As
                                     a result the user can not trust the 'G' codes for visit
                                     counting.  For a more accurate accounting of services
                                     the user should rely on the revenue center codes rather
                                     than the HCPCS.

                                     Currently there is a check that if the 15-minute incre-
                                     ment 'G' codes appear, the revenue center code must be
                                     the corresponding HH discipline; however, there is no
                                     check to see if the discipline revenue center code
                                     appears and that the HCPCS contains the corresponding
                                     'G' code.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     The Standard Systems has put a fix in to correct this
                                     problem.

                                     put into the NCH.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     During the recovery from CWF history of NCH dropped
                                     claims, we were unaware that the files contained
                                     the IME/GME payment records.  Normally, these claims
                                     are received in separate transmittals from the FFS
                                     claims and full UB-92 encounters; and are not stored
                                     in the NCH.  The total number of IME/GMEs inserted
                                     was 181,693, representing $57.76 million in reim-
                                     bursement; involving service years 1998 and 1999.

                                     To identify these claims, look for service years
                                     1998 and 1999 inpatient claims with claim related
                                     condition codes 04 and 69.  Condition code '69' is
                                     the identifying characteristic.

                                     NOTE:  There could be identical full inpatient en-
                                     counter claims in history that match to these
                                     erroneous IME/GME records, except that they will
                                     not contain a condition code '69'.  If the IME/GMEs
                                     are not deleted, it is possible when running the
                                     final action algorithm that the IME/GME record
                                     will remain and the full inpatient encounter claim
                                     could be dropped.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     The IME/GME claims were not removed from the NCH,
                                     due to the impact it would have on the balancing
                                     counts. They were removed from the 1999 service
                                     year SAFs.   The 1998 finalized SAFs were not
                                     rerun to incorporate the relevant dropped claims
                                     (only missing receipts for 6/18/99 and 6/25/99
                                     weeks); the IME/GMEs are not in the 1998 SAFs.

                                     The MCO paid switch made consistent with criteria
                                     used to identify an inpatient encounter claim.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     During the NCH Version 'I' conversion, history was
                                     populated with an NCH Claim Type Code that will
                                     identify the record as an inpatient encounter claim.
                                     When applying the CWF logic to identify an inpatient
                                     encounter claim, it was discovered that when all
                                     the criteria was met the MCO paid switch was some-
                                     times a blank or '0' (reflecting that the MCO did
                                     not pay the provider).
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     With the inception of the Version 'I' processing
                                     (7/00), if all the criteria for identifying an
                                     inpatient encounter claim is met but the MCO paid
                                     switch is a blank or '0' it is changed to a '1'.

                                     A patch code = '13' was applied to all claims back
                                     to 7/1/97 service year thru date.

                                     On outpatient, home health and hospice it appears that
                                     more than one '0001' revenue center code is showing
                                     up on the claims.   The first total charge line adds
                                     the revenue center codes above it correctly; the
                                     problem exists below the first total charge line

                                     1/98.

                                     CWF created an edit to reject mulitple '0001' revenue

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     As of the implementation of Version 'J', the NCH claim
                                     type codes '62' and '64' were not correctly being set.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     With the implementation of Version'J', we added three
                                     new claim type codes ('62', '63' and '64') to identify
                                     Medicare Advantage claims.

                                     It appears that the conversion code we used to convert
                                     all of our history files (claims prior to start of Version
                                     'J') set the 62 and 64 correctly but that same code was not
                                     used in our normal monthly claims processing (claims
                                     received January 1, 2011 and after).  The error was with
                                     the MCO-PD-SW logic used to derive the claim type code.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     This anamoly was handled in two phases:

                                     Phase 1 -- a fix was put into the NCH code to use
                                     the correct MCO-PD-SW logic.  The fix was imple-
                                     mented prior to our October 2012 NCH monthly
                                     load.  This fix corrected the claims received
                                     October 1st and forward.

                                     Phase 2 -- History files (January 1, 2011 thru
                                     September 28, 2012) were corrected during our
                                     NCH Version 'K' conversion, which was implemented
                                     April 2013.

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     The NCH Daily Process Date was mistakenly changed on
                                     all Version 'J' claims during the history conversion
                                     process.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     It was discovered during the process of modifying the
                                     conversion code used during Version 'J' processing that
                                     the NCH Daily Process Date was mistakenly changed in the
                                     Version 'J' conversion code.  When preparing the specs for
                                     the Version 'J' conversion code, we were told to change the
                                     NCH Daily Process Date to reflect the date the history files
                                     were converted.

                                     This change impacts the linkage of Part A claims that have
                                     multiple segments (claims with more than 45 revenue center
                                     lines) on the Version 'J' claim files.  The NCH Daily
                                     Process Date is used in conjuction with the NCH Segment
                                     Link Number to keep records/segments belonging to a
                                     specific claim together.

                                     There is the possibility that two different claims could
                                     now have the same NCH Daily Process Date and NCH Segment
                                     Link Number.  This could cause users of the data to
                                     match claim records/segments together that should not
                                     be paired.   We believe the chances of this occurring to
                                     be minimal.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     Because the Version 'I' files were converted and the
                                     date changed, we have no way of going back and retrieving
                                     the original NCH Daily Process Date so no fix/patch
                                     will be applied.

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     Approximately 75 Inpatient claims had a reimbursement
                                     amount exceed $500,000 which was at least 25 times
                                     the total charge amount.  There were also claims where
                                     the reimbursement was less than $500,000 but greater
                                     than the total charges.

                                     Prior to 4/6/93, on inpatient, outpatient, and
                                     physician/supplier claims containing a
                                     CLM_DISP_CD of '02', the amount shown as the Medicare
                                     reimbursement does not take into consideration
                                     any CWF automatic adjustments (involving erroneous
                                     deductibles in most cases).  In as many as 30% of
                                     the claims (30% IP, 15% OP, 5% PART B), the
                                     reimbursement reported on the claims may be over
                                     or under the actual Medicare payment amount.
                                     SQL_INFO:       NUMBER(11,2)
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     In November of 1999, it was brought to the attention
                                     of the HDUG that large reimbursement amounts were
                                     being paid in Pennsylvania.  There were 75 inpatient
                                     claims provided where the reimbursement amount was
                                     over $500,000 and at least 25 times the total charge
                                     amount.  These claims were processed between 9/29/98
                                     and 10/1/98.  There were also claims identified with
                                     reimbursement less than $500,000 but greater than
                                     total charge.  It was later discovered that the
                                     source of the problem was an error in entering an
                                     MSA; the decimal point was off by 2 positions.

                                     Because there were no changes in utilization, the
                                     claims were corrected and the correct payments dis-
                                     tributed, but the new payment amounts were never
                                     sent to CWF (not in NCH).  There is currently
                                     no requirement that FIs and carriers update CWF with
                                     final payment information by submitting payment only
                                     adjustments. It was noted that there is no expectation
                                     that CWF wll have final payment information for claims.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     According to Veritus (FI), the problem was caught
                                     in their system using a pre-payment edit prior to
                                     sending out the payments.  The erroneous MSA value
                                     was corrected and the claims were then sent to
                                     PRICER again and paid correctly.

                                     The claims were corrected and correct payments were
                                     made but these new payment amounts were never sent
                                     to CWF and are not reflected in the NCH.

                                     Prior to Version 'I', this field housed only the 7-position
                                     exemption number assigned by the FDA to an investigational
                                     device after a manufacturer has been approved to conduct
                                     a clinical trial on that device.  With Version 'I', this
                                     field expanded to 24 positions to accommodate the future

                                     the expanded field, but then incorrectly blanked it out
                                     (positions 8-24 should be blank).

                                     CWFMQA fixed the code and the problem was corrected with
                                     claims processed with NCH weekly process date 9/15/00.

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     It was discovered that the specialty code at the line
                                     level on Outpatient claims was erroneous due to the
                                     truncation of the the revenue center rendering physician
                                     NPI number.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     In March 2013, it was discovered that since January 2013
                                     FISS was sending CWF/NCH truncated revenue center ren-
                                     dering physician NPI numbers.  Because the NPI was being
                                     truncated this also caused erroneous data in the
                                     specialty code field.  This issue only impacts outpatient
                                     claims.

                                     After further investigation, it was determined that the
                                     correct outpatient copybook was not being used with the
                                     implementation of the January release.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     The fix for this anomaly is being handled in two phases:

                                     Phase 1 -- a fix was put in the FISS system on 4/22/2013 to
                                     correct the issue going forward.

                                     Phase 2 -- the second fix will be to send debit/credit
                                     adjustmentss to correct the data in the NCH/SAF.

                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     Under Version 'I', a decision was made that any
                                     amount, count and quantity field would be zeroed
                                     out to eliminate the risk of overstating values
                                     during an accumulation.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     The CWFMQA front-end process was modified to zero
                                     out the total charge amount field in segments 2-10.

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     It was discovered that the NPI at the line level on
                                     Outpatient claims was being truncated since January
                                     2013.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     In March 2013, it was discovered that since January 2013

                                     dering physician NPI numbers (REV-CNTR-RNDRNG-PHYSN-NPI-
                                     NUM).  The NPIs were coming in as 8 bytes instead of 10
                                     bytes.  Because the NPI is truncated it is also causing
                                     erroneous data in the specialty code (REV-CNTR-RNDRNG-
                                     SPCLTY-CD) field.  The issue only impacts outpatient
                                     claims.

                                     The total charge amount field in the fixed portion was
                                     truncated on outpatient, hospice and home health claims.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     For outpatient, hospice and home health claims, the
                                     total charge amount field in the fixed portion was
                                     truncated (the cents were dropped off; the decimal
                                     point was moved, making cents out of dollars) in the
                                     CWFMQA process beginning with data received from CWF
                                     1/4/99 through 5/14/99.  The problem occurred when
                                     CWF increased the size of the field.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     The CWFMQA front-end was fixed.  The Nearline was patched
                                     during the quarterly  merge in 7/99 for service years
                                     1998 and 1999.  The NCH_PACTCH_CD field will be pop-
                                     ulated with a value '11'.  The 1998 and 1999 SAFs were
                                     corrected when finalized in 7/99.

                                     The patch involved moving the total charge amount in
                                     the revenue center trailer to the total charge amount
                                     field in the fixed portion, for records with NCH Daily
                                     Process Date 1/4/99 - 5/14/99.
