WASHINGTON – CMS has identified errors in the fee schedule amounts for certain items furnished in non-contiguous areas and has released revised public use fee schedule files. Most of the corrections to the fee schedule amounts were minor, resulting in an estimated aggregate underpayment of about $3,200 dollars in 2022 with percentage fee adjustments ranging from 0.5% to 5.1% for certain items. Fewer than 3,000 claims are affected by these errors and will be automatically reprocessed by the DME MACs. A list of 179 HCPCS code and modifier combinations affected by the revisions is included as a separate public use file. The revised 2022 public use files are now available here.
