(Rev. 175, Issued: 10-28-10, Effective: 04-01-11, Implementation: 04-04-11)
SECTION F: INTEREST PAYMENT DATA
The intermediary reports on Page 22 of the CMS-1566 data on the bills on which it paid
interest because it paid the bills after the required payment date per §9311 of the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986. Counts of bills processed reflect their
status as of the last workday of the reporting calendar month. The intermediary bases data
shown on reliable counts of all bill processing activity and not on estimates. It reports
data on initial bills only. Note that HH PPS RAPs with three-digit classification code 3-
2-2 or 3-3-2 with dates of service 10/01/2000 and greater are not subject to interest
payment and should be excluded from this section. The intermediary includes all bills
requiring interest payments in the month. It reports bills in the month the scheduled date
of payment falls. See The Medicare Claims Processing, Chapter 1, General Billing
Requirements, for a discussion of interest payments and the definition of scheduled
payment date.
It the report for each column as follows:
• Column 1 - Total - It includes data for all bills for which interest payments were
made in the reporting month.
• Column 2 - Hospital - Of the bills reported in column 1, it shows in column 2
data for CMS-1450s submitted by hospitals for inpatient or outpatient services
with the following two-digit classification codes in Form Locator 4:
1-1
(inpatient hospital)
1-2
(inpatient hospital - Part B benefits)
1-3
(outpatient hospital)
1-4
(hospital - other Part B benefits)
4-1
(Religious Nonmedical Health Care Hospital - inpatient)
4-2
(Religious Nonmedical Health Care Hospital - inpatient Part B benefits)
4-3
(Religious Nonmedical Health Care Hospital - outpatient)
4-4
(Religious Nonmedical Health Care Hospital - inpatient other)
8-3
(Outpatient hospital surgical procedures - ASC)
• Column 3 - SNF--Of the bills reported in column 1, it shows in column 3 data for
CMS- 1450s submitted with the following two-digit classification codes in Form
Locator 4:
1-8
(hospital swing-bed)
2-1
(SNF - inpatient)
2-2
(SNF - inpatient Part B benefits)
2-3
(SNF - outpatient)
2-4
(SNF - other Part B benefits)
2-8
(SNF-swing-bed)
5-1
(Religious Nonmedical Health Care SNF - inpatient)
5-2
(Religious Nonmedical Health Care SNF - inpatient Part B benefits)
5-3
(Religious Nonmedical Health Care SNF - outpatient)
5-4
(Religious Nonmedical Health Care SNF - inpatient other)
• Column 4 - HHA - Of the bills reported in column 1, it shows in column 4 data
for CMS-1450s with the following two digit classification codes in Form Locator
4: 3-2, 3-3, and 3-4.
• Column 5 - Hospice - Of the bills reported in column 1, it shows in column 5
data for CMS-1450s with the following two-digit classification codes in Form
Locator 4: 8-1 and 8-2.
• Column 6 - Remainder - Of the bills reported in column 1 it shows in column 6
data for all CMS-1450s not included in columns 2-5 (including provider and
independent RHCs).
On line 1, it shows the number of claims on which it paid interest in the reporting month.
It reports on line 2 the number of claims included in line 1 for which it made payment
one day after the required payment date (e.g., the required payment date is 25 days in FY
1999). Data for lines 3-10 are similar to those for line 2. It calculates the number of days
late by subtracting the Julian date of receipt of the bill from the Julian scheduled payment
date and then subtracting the required payment date (i.e., 25 in FY 1999). If the bill is
paid in the year following the year of receipt, it adds 365 or 366 (if the year of receipt is a
leap year) to the result, as appropriate.
On line 11, it shows the amount paid in interest on the bills reported in line 1. See The
Medicare Claims Processing Manual, Chapter 1, General Billing Requirements on how to
calculate interest payments. On lines 12-20 it shows the amounts paid in interest for bills
reported in lines 2-10, respectively. It shows payment amounts on lines 11-20 to the
nearest penny, including the decimal point.
