FQHC/RHC (cont.) o FQHC and RHC claims will identify the unique NPI of the FQHC or RHC as the service/rendering provider o FQHCs and RHCs can be reimbursed on same day for each “unique” visit, (.e. a separate service not within same discipline (e.g. dental and medical)); no change from the current process o FQHCs and RHCs will bill AHCCCS and its Contractors for each “unique” visit utilizing appropriate CPT Evaluation and Management codes and including all related services for the visit utilizing a 1500 claim format (standard practice for most facilities) o FQHCs and RHCs will be paid an all inclusive "visit" rate per visit that will serve a full reimbursement for the individual visit regardless of other related services for the visit 16 Reaching across Arizona to provide comprehensive quality health care for those in need

FQHC/RHC (cont.) o Visit payments will be paid associated with the billed E&M “visit” codes and any other related services will be valued at $0.00 o AHCCCS will implement a unique Provider specific fee schedule (equivalent to the PPS rate) for each FQHC and RHC where visit E&M codes will reflect the appropriate per visit rate effective for the date of service and in which all other related service codes will reflect a rate of $0.00 (due to bundling under the per visit rate as noted above) o Current FQHC Pharmacy (340B) billing will remain as is under the Pharmacy provider type, etc... and will not be impacted by this change 17 Reaching across Arizona to provide comprehensive quality health care for those in need

FQHC/RHC (cont.)  AHCCCS will continue to have a quarterly payment and reconciliation process but the amounts that are part of the quarterly payments will be updated to reflect that fact that Contractors will be paying considerably more to avoid recoupments as part of the reconciliation 18 Reaching across Arizona to provide comprehensive quality health care for those in need

PCP Rate Parity AHCCCS will make quarterly cost-settlement payments to the Contractor based upon adjudicated/approved PCP Rate Parity encounter data Contractors will be required to refund payments to AHCCCS for any reduced claim payments in the event that a provider is subsequently “decertified” for enhanced payments as result of subsequent audits or other changes to providers 19 Reaching across Arizona to provide comprehensive quality health care for those in need
