The social security site shows that my start date for benefits began on 5/09, but I did not receive my first check until 6/09. Was that check for May or June? If June, does that mean my start date was June 2009 rather than May 2009 or is the benefit payment always a month behind?
When a Medicare contractor receives a claim with an unlisted HCPCS code for non-OPPS payment, the contractor shall verify that no existing HCPCS code adequately describes the procedure or service. Unlisted codes should be reported only if no other specific HCPCS codes adequately describe the procedure or service.
1 This code is assigned only at the conclusion of limited screening, and it remains assigned until the full screening process resolves the Governmentâs rights to use data and results in assignment of a different AMSC. 2  If one source is available, AMCs 3, 4, or 5 are valid.
