By Andrea Kraynak, CPC-A

Connolly, the Region C RAC, has been approved to audit Durable Medical Equipment (DME) providers for two new issues: 

• Wheelchair bundling. Bundling guidelines for wheelchair bases and options/accessories indicate certain procedure codes are part of other procedure codes and, as a result, are not separately payable.
• Urological Bundling. Certain procedure codes are part of other procedure codes and are not separately payable.

This applies to the Region C states, including Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia.
