Billing Tip for NPWT

Medicare makes a separate payment amount for a disposable Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) device for a patient under a home health plan of care. Payment is equal to the amount of the payment that would otherwise be made under the Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS).
