Hello April,

 

Yes, we just had one of those.  What I have found is that the hospital ended up billing the stay as outpatient observation and not as an inpatient stay. ☹

Good afternoon,

I am wondering if any home health providers are having recoupment requests from Humana for claims in 2022 with the following reason:

 

No acute or post-acute care in the 14 days prior to the home health admission 

Just curious if anyone else is having this same recoupment request reason as I have not seen this one before and we have received a few now. Thanks!
