L codes

Michele,
Can you tell me when using S codes and L codes do you file this separate from the orignal medical claim and send it to DMERS.
so if a patient saw a doctor for a visit you would send that claim out and if they need DME you would send this out separately am I right
so I would be sending out two claims one to ins. co and other to DMERS is this correct?

Michele:
Yes, if you are billing Medicare for office visit charges and durable medical equipment then you would file the office visit to the medicare part b carrier and the DME to the DME carrier for the region the provider is in.

margemib:
Michele,
How does this work with most commercial Ins Carriers?
margemib

Michele:
Most commercial carriers handle the DME along with the other charges in the same manner so it wouldn't be necessary to send 2 separate claims.
