Department of the Navy Science and Technology Board; Notice of Federal Advisory Committee Meeting, 25619-25620 [2024-07653]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 71 / Thursday, April 11, 2024 / Notices khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Any antepartum or postpartum visits performed under Phase 1 requirements will count as 4 15-minute increments against the beneficiary’s 24 visit allowance under Phase 2. Example: A beneficiary received an initial antepartum visit prior to the start of the transition period, followed by another antepartum visit after the transition period began from a nonparticipating CLD. The beneficiary’s CLD then signs a participation agreement, after which time the beneficiary gives birth. The initial two antepartum visits would be reimbursed under Phase 1 rules and would count as 8 15-minute increments against the beneficiary’s 24 increment allowance (4 increments for each visit). The labor support would be reimbursed under Phase 2 rules. After delivery, the beneficiary would have 16 15-minute increments remaining to use in the postpartum period, in any configuration (e.g., one 4-hour visit, two 2-hour visits, four 1-hour visits). The DHA notes that it will take several months for the TRICARE’s contractors to implement the new billing codes, during which time claims processing under Phase 2 may be delayed. C. Adjustments to CLD Certification Requirements Separate from the Phase 2 changes discussed above, the Director is also announcing that one new certification body will be accepted for CLDs under the CBSD: the National Black Doula Association (NBDA). The DHA made this decision based on analysis of publicly available information for the approximately 47 certification and training bodies recognized by the state Medicaid programs (not already approved under the CBSD) using the criteria discussed in the FRN that published on October 29, 2021. The criteria we discussed in that FRN required that the bodies selected for inclusion had to have a time-limited certification and be well-established with a wide-ranging footprint (i.e., national or international); included classroom training and workshops in labor physiology and other childbirth topics; required doulas to have completed at least two deliveries prior to certification; required evaluations from health care professionals for services provided during labor support or a comprehensive examination; and had an established scope of practice, code of ethics, code of conduct, or similar by which the doula is required to agree to abide. The Director, DHA, also announces in this FRN that the certification VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:50 Apr 10, 2024 Jkt 262001 requirement for doulas practicing in a state with an active state-wide doula Medicaid benefit will be waived when that doula is actively enrolled in that state Medicaid program and provides evidence of such an enrollment (the doula must be practicing in the state in which they hold a Medicaid enrollment). To be eligible, the Medicaid program must be a state-wide program with requirements set by the state Medicaid agency. Medicaid programs of limited duration (pilot/ demonstration programs) and programs where a contractor (for example, a managed care organization or accountable care organization) sets the provider requirements do not meet these criteria. All other TRICARE CLD requirements will continue to be in effect (age, education, experience, cardiopulmonary resuscitation certification, and possession of a national provider identification number). The various statewide programs have different and varying requirements, and so this demonstration is testing the impact of those programs on provider quality and availability. This may impact the DHA’s provider requirements if a permanent benefit is established. The TRICARE program is a uniform benefit, but because this is a demonstration, we are allowing some variability between the states so that we can test the impact of these differences on provider quality, availability, and other outcomes. E. Cost The modifications in this FRN are not anticipated to increase the overall cost of the CBSD above the $51.16M for health care and administrative costs that were announced in the 2021 FRN.
