Data Breaches
This document adopts, without change, the interim final rule that was published in the Federal Register on June 22, 2007, addressing data breaches of sensitive personal information that is processed or maintained by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). This final rule implements certain provisions of the Veterans Benefits, Health Care, and Information Technology Act of 2006. The regulations prescribe the mechanisms for taking action in response to a data breach of sensitive personal information.
GR Modifier Use by the Department of Veterans Affairs
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) bills health benefit plans for the cost of certain care delivered to veterans. Starting with dates of service on and after January 1, 2006, when medical residents deliver care in a VA Medical Center or clinic under the supervision of an attending physician, VA will issue its bill in the name of the attending physician but append the Healthcare Common Procedural Coding System (HCPCS) Level II modifier ``-GR'' to the CPT code for the service. For billing and payment purposes, the ``-GR'' modifier when used on VA billings has the same effect as the ``-GC'' or ``-GE'' modifier when used in billings from non-VA providers. The use of the ``-GC'' ``-GE'' modifiers is generally discontinued in VA billings; they are used only as specifically permitted by VA policy.
