Temporary Hold on Home Health LUPA Claims

Medicare contractors have identified an incorrect payment calculation affecting home health claims that would be paid low utilization payment adjustments (LUPAs). To prevent these claims from paying incorrectly, Medicare contractors will hold all home health LUPA claims with "Through" dates on or after January 1, 2014 until Medicare systems are corrected. This correction should occur in early February, 2014.
