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.
Generally, the current payment method may be summarized as cost reimbursement, with interim. payments made on a DRG basis. With a few exceptions, almost all hospitals in South Carolina have been. reimbursed for 100% of allowable cost, as determined through reviews and audits of cost reports.
