UB04 Type of Bill Code 0751: Clinic - Comprehensive Outpatient Rehabilitation Facility (CORF)

Overview

Type of Bill (TOB) code 0751 is a four-digit alphanumeric code used on the UB-04 claim form to identify a claim from a Clinic – Comprehensive Outpatient Rehabilitation Facility (CORF). According to the Noridian Bill Types reference, the code is structured as follows: the first digit is a leading zero (ignored by CMS), the second digit (7) indicates the facility type is “Clinic or Hospital based ESRD facility,” the third digit (5) indicates the type of care is “CORF (Clinics),” and the fourth digit (1) indicates the frequency is “Admit Through Discharge.” [1]

The code 0751 is specifically used for CORF services that are provided in a clinic setting. CORFs are outpatient facilities that provide comprehensive rehabilitation services, including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and respiratory therapy, under a coordinated plan of care. The “Admit Through Discharge” frequency (digit 1) means the claim covers the entire episode of care from admission to discharge, with no interim billing. [1]

The MassHealth UB-04 Billing Guide provides general instructions for completing the UB-04 claim form, including the requirement that certain providers (e.g., acute outpatient hospitals) must use the UB-04 for paper claims. However, the guide does not specifically address CORF or code 0751. [2]

When to Use

Use TOB 0751 when submitting a claim for a Comprehensive Outpatient Rehabilitation Facility (CORF) that is classified as a clinic (facility digit 7) and the type of care is CORF (care digit 5). The frequency digit 1 indicates that the claim is for a single episode of care from admission through discharge, meaning the provider is billing for the entire CORF stay in one submission. [1]

This code should not be used for other clinic types such as Rural Health Clinics (RHC), Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC), or Community Mental Health Centers (CMHC), which have different care digits (e.g., digit 1 for RHC, digit 7 for FQHC, digit 6 for CMHC). [1]

Providers should also ensure that the facility is actually certified as a CORF by Medicare. The code is specific to CORF services; if the clinic provides only outpatient therapy without a comprehensive rehabilitation plan, a different TOB (e.g., 0771 for clinic outpatient) may be more appropriate. [1]

MassHealth providers must follow the state’s all-electronic claims submission policy unless they have an approved waiver. For paper claims, the UB-04 form is required for acute outpatient hospitals and other specified providers, but CORF-specific billing instructions are not detailed in the MassHealth guide. [2]
