When they change from Medicare to a Medicare Advantage plan you would use discharge status 06.

Hi-

 

Have been looking around but going to ask the “experts” out there for this:

 

Client insurance coverage for Home Care changed from Medicare on Jan 1, 2022  to UCare( for  us per visit payer). Is  there specific status code I use on final Medicare claim to show that this is being done for change in payer?

 

Thanks.
