Reconciling a contractor-priced payment for 0330T Copy link
There is no national allowed amount for 0330T, so every reconciliation of this line runs against the MAC fee schedule that was in force for the date of service rather than against a national baseline.
What to check
- Compare the paid amount against the MAC fee schedule in force for the date of service; there is no national allowed amount here to reconcile against.
- Ask the MAC which global period it assigned: the contractor sets the follow-up window for this code, so whether a post-operative visit should have paid depends on the contractor that priced it.
- Reprice the line against the release, locality, setting, modifier and participation status that applied to the date of service before treating any difference as an underpayment.
