Enteral Nutrition Infusion Pump
Reimbursement for the enteral nutrition infusion pump is based on a rent-to-purchase methodology. Each unit reimbursed by Medicaid will apply towards the purchase price established by Medicaid.
Reimbursement will only be approved for new equipment. Used equipment will not be prior authorized. Procedure codes represent a new piece of equipment being reimbursed by Medicaid on the rent-to-purchase plan.
Codes are reimbursed on a per unit basis with 1 day equaling 1 unit of service per day.
Medicaid will reimburse on the rent-to-purchase plan for a total of 304 units of service. After reimbursement has been made for 304 units, the equipment will become the property of the Medicaid beneficiary.
Prior authorization is required for codes. The prior authorization request must include the serial number of the infusion pump being provided to the beneficiary.
See Section 236.000 for reimbursement when the Medicaid Program is billed for repairs made to the enteral infusion pump.
