Policy: BlueCross Blue Shield of Rhode Island covers interim billing for payment of services provided by an acute rehabilitation/skilled nursing facility, hospice or home health agency. Interim billing is covered for acute care hospitals only if the hospital is covered at a per diem rate.
Long term inpatient stays can be billed using bill type 112 and 113. Interim bills must be for 30 days or more. Claims billed with bill types 112 or 113 for services of less than 30 days will be denied. Upon discharge, providers must recoup the paid interim bills and submit for the complete stay.
