NYS Epic Hospitals billing T1013
I am assisting the Director of Social Work with a Business Improvement Project at our New York State hospital (using Epic Systems) and trying to research other hospitals who already have a process that would be willing to share set up suggestions, workflow, policies/procedures and lessons learned with billing Inpatients & Outpatients for Language Interpreters (in person and telephonic (e.g. Cyracom phone)). (HCPCS T1013-Sign Language or oral interpreter services)
If anyone is willing to share by email or speak with me in person, I would appreciate your feedback and assistance with exploring your process. Thanking you in advance.

New CMS Appropriate Use Criteria
Did CMS really go live on 1/1 requiring prior authorizations for advanced imaging or was this delayed? Does it impact all providers including critical access hospitals? We received an email from AIM today on this topic, but could not find much for additional information on the topic.
Would anyone be willing to share their organization’s policy on cell phone stipends/reimbursement? We currently provide devices and service to certain associates, but are looking to transition to providing a stipend to those associates. I can be reached at sbridenstine@hhcs.org
Thanks!
