UB04 Type of Bill Code 0341: Home Health - Outpatient (Other) - Admit through Discharge Claim

Introduction

Type of Bill Code 0341 represents a Home Health agency providing outpatient services (other) for a single episode of care that spans from admission through discharge. This code is reported in Field 4: Type of Bill.

Usage

This code is utilized by Home Health agencies when submitting a claim for outpatient services that do not fall under a standard Home Health Plan of Care. It is specifically used for 'Admit through Discharge' billing, meaning the entire course of treatment is captured on a single claim rather than through interim billing cycles.

Billing Impact

Using this code ensures the payer processes the claim as a complete episode, preventing the system from expecting subsequent interim claims and allowing for final adjudication of the outpatient service.
