  PREVENTIVE SERVICES FOR NON-GRANDFATHERED (PPACA) PLANS: OVERVIEW

Description:
PREVENTIVE CARE SERVICES
Non-grandfathered/PPACA Wellness Summary
 
In 2011 and 2012, we had calls and questions on the differences between the pre PPACA wellness benefits and the PPACA wellness benefits for non-grandfathered health plans. We hope that the Preventive Care Services Summary that appeared in Provider News in August 2012 helped providers have a clearer understanding of the preventive services covered; these of course are subject to change. Portions of that article are included here. The preventive services component of the law was a requirement that all “non-grandfathered” health insurance plans are required to cover preventive medicine services given an “A” or “B” recommendation by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF). ABCBS studied these recommendations and developed a coverage policy on each preventive medicine service; please refer to www.arkbluecross.com or www.heathadvantage-hmo.com.
 
In order to comply with the health care reform law (PPACA or the Patient Protection and Affordability Act), Women’s Preventive Services was added to many health plans. On August 1, 2012, the change was made to certain employer-sponsored health insurance plans. The change took place on January 1, 2013, for certain individual health plans.
 
We encourage each physician and other providers of preventive services to become familiar with the USPSTF, Bright Futures, and Women’s Health Initiative recommendations and ABCBS coverage policies. Most of the inquiries we received were on lab (urinalysis) and other services such as chest x-rays, electrocardiograms, breathing capacity tests, catheter for hysterography, vitamins, B-12 injections, cardiovascular stress tests, CT for bone density, CT for Head/Brain, Removing Ear Wax, Consultations, etc., that are not included in the USPSTF, Bright Futures, or Women’s Health Initiative recommendations for screening, and are not part of ABCBS coverage policy for non-grandfathered/PPACA Preventive Services. Claims for these services, if billed for screening, therefore would be provider write-offs as not meeting Primary Coverage Criteria or Not Medically Necessary, and are not member liability if billed with a preventive diagnosis unless the ordering provider has obtained from the member a signed waiver specifically stating why the requested service would not be covered.
 
Summary of Arkansas Blue Cross Blue Shield and Health Advantage Coverage Polices
The Federal Patient Protection and Preventive Care Act (PPACA) was passed by Congress and signed into law by the President in March 2010. The preventive services component of the law became effective September 23, 2010. A component of the law was a requirement that all “non-grandfathered” health insurance plans are required to cover those preventive medicine services given an “A” or “B” recommendation by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF).
 
Plans are not required to provide coverage for the preventive services if they are delivered by out-of-network providers.
 
Task Force recommendations are graded on a five-point scale (A-E), reflecting the strength of evidence in support of the intervention. Grade A: There is good evidence to support the recommendation that the condition be specifically considered in a periodic health examination. Grade B: There is fair evidence to support the recommendation that the condition be specifically considered in a periodic health examination. Grade C: There is insufficient evidence to recommend for or against the inclusion of the condition in a periodic health examination, but recommendations may be made on other grounds. Grade D: There is fair evidence to support the recommendation that the condition be excluded from consideration in a periodic health examination. Grade E: There is good evidence to support the recommendation that the condition be excluded from consideration in a periodic health examination.
 
Those preventive medicine services listed as Grade A & B recommendations are covered without cost sharing (i.e., deductible, co-insurance, or co-pay) by Health Plans for appropriate preventive care services provided by an in-network provider. If the primary purpose for the office visit is for other than Grade A or B USPSTF preventive care services, deductible, co-insurance, or copay may be applied.
 
Services are typically included as part of a normal wellness visit; the appropriate office visit code should be used. Evaluation and Management codes for preventive services 99381-99397 will always be considered preventive. CPT Codes 99401-99404, when used to designate a preventive service, must have the applicable wellness/preventive diagnosis code as the primary reason for the visit.
 
Note: (99401-99404 are considered components of 99386-99387 if billed on the same date-of-service.)
 
When the primary purpose of the service is the delivery of an evidence-based service in accordance with a US Preventive Services Task Force A or B rating in effect and other preventive services identified in preventive services mandates (legislative or regulatory), the service may be billed with Modifier ‘-33’.
 
The correct coding as listed for both ICD 10 and CPT or HCPCS codes is also required along with Modifier 33.
  
For Self-funded plans with SPD language
Certain self-funded plans may have a different list of preventive care benefits. Please refer to the enrollee’s plan specific SPD for coverage. Group specific policy will supersede this policy when applicable. This policy does not apply to the Wal-Mart Associates Group Health Plan participants.
 
Note: Please encourage your patients to update their personal Health Record with information gathered during a preventive visit.
 
Note: The cost of drugs, medications, equipment, vitamins, or supplements that are recommended or prescribed for preventive measures are generally not covered as a preventive care benefit. Examples include, but are not limited to:
 
a. Aspirin for any indication, including but not limited to, aspirin for prevention of cardiovascular disease.
b. Supplements, including but not limited to, oral fluoride supplementation, and folic acid supplementation.
c. Tobacco cessation products or medications.
d. Electric Breast Pumps

DIABETES MELLITUS, GESTATIONAL AND POSTPARTUM SCREENING (Coverage Policy 2012032)
HRSA (Women’s Preventive Services Initiative) Recommendation
The Women’s Preventive Services Initiative recommends screening pregnant women for gestational diabetes mellitus after 24 weeks of gestation (preferably between 24 and 28 weeks of gestation) in order to prevent adverse birth outcomes.
The Women’s Preventive Services Initiative recommends screening pregnant women with risk factors for type 2 diabetes or GDM before 24 weeks of gestation—ideally at the first prenatal visit.
WPSI recommends screening for type 2 diabetes in women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) who are not currently pregnant and who have not previously been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Initial testing should ideally occur within the first year postpartum and can be conducted as early as 4–6 weeks postpartum.
Women who are not screened in the first year postpartum or those with a negative initial postpartum screening test result should be rescreened at least every 3 years for a minimum of 10 years after pregnancy. For those with a positive postpartum screening test result in the early postpartum period, testing should be repeated at least 6 months postpartum to confirm the diagnosis of diabetes regardless of the initial test (e.g., oral glucose tolerance test, fasting plasma glucose, or hemoglobin A1c).
Repeat testing is also indicated in women screened with hemoglobin A1c in the first 6 months postpartum regardless of whether the test results are positive or negative because the hemoglobin A1c test is less accurate during the first 6 months postpartum.
USPSTF Recommendation
The USPSTF recommends screening for gestational diabetes in asymptomatic pregnant persons at 24 weeks of gestation or after. (Grade B)

The USPSTF recommends that adults without a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) (ie, symptomatic coronary artery disease or ischemic stroke) use a low- to moderate-dose statin for the prevention of CVD events and mortality when all of the following criteria are met: 1) they are aged 40 to 75 years; 2) they have 1 or more CVD risk factors (ie, dyslipidemia, diabetes, hypertension, or smoking); and 3) they have a calculated 10-year risk of a cardiovascular event of 10% or greater.
Identification of dyslipidemia and calculation of 10-year CVD event risk requires universal lipids screening in adults aged 40 to 75 years. (Grade B)
HRSA (Bright Futures) Recommendation
A fasting lipoprotein profile (total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglyceride) should be obtained before pubertal onset (once between the ages of 9-11) and in late adolescence (once between the ages of 17-21). Screening should be considered for younger children when a history of familial hypercholesterolemia has been identified. Risk assessments should be done at the ages of 2, 4, 6, and 8. A total of 2 fasting lipids should be obtained at these ages for children who test positive on risk screening questions. A risk assessment should also be done at 12-16 years of age. A total of 2 fasting lipids should be obtained for adolescents between the ages of 12-16 who test positive to risk screening questions.

MEDIA USE BY CHILDREN & ADOLESCENTS, SCREENING & COUNSELING FOR (Coverage Policy 2012042)
HRSA (BRIGHT FUTURES) Recommendation
Screening:
To screen for media usage, clinicians should ask 2 questions about media use at health supervision visits:
1) How much screen time per day does the child spend?
2) Is there a TV set or Internet connection in the child’s bedroom?
Counseling:
Since they potentially influence numerous aspects of child and adolescent health, the media may represent the most important area of anticipatory guidance in well-child visits. One study has shown that a minute or two of office counseling about media violence and guns could reduce violence exposure for nearly 1 million children per year. Given the sheer number of hours that children spend with media, counseling is imperative.
