CMS Pub. 100-04, ch. 7, § 10.2
Billing for Outpatient SNF Services
SNF-529
Coverage is available for all of the services described in §10.1. However, beneficiaries
not in the Medicare-certified Distinct Part Unit (DPU) are not required to have therapy
services (physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech language pathology) billed
by the SNF. Therapy services need only be bundled to the SNF for those SNF residents
in a Medicare-certified DPU. For additional information see Chapter 6, SNF Inpatient
Part A Billing, §20.5 Therapy Services.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
