46464-4

LOINC code 46464-4 identifies "Current payment sources for home care [OASIS]". Identifies payers to which any services provided during this home care episode are being billed. Accurate recording of this item is important because assessments for Medicare and Medicaid patients are handled differently upon submission than assessments for patients who do not have Medicare or Medicaid as a payment source. If patient is receiving care from multiple payers (e.g., Medicare and Medicaid; private insurance and self-pay; etc.), include all sources. Include "pending" payment sources if it is reasonably likely that they will provide payment during the episode.

This code measures Current payment sources for home care in ^Patient. It belongs to the SURVEY.OASIS class in the LOINC classification.

LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes) is a universal standard for identifying laboratory and clinical observations. It is maintained by the Regenstrief Institute and used worldwide for health data exchange.
