Neulasta following chemotherapy
Medicare Primary Insurance
Patient enrolled in Skilled Nursing Facility
Patient receiving Taxol/Cytoxan
Primary diagnosis 183.0-CA Ovary
My question is:
After receiving chemo patient required Neulasta. Medicare denied with CO-109-You must send the claim to the correct payer/contractor.
Is there a way to avoid billing the SNF since the Neulasta is a necessary part of the treatment? -
Thanks for your help
