Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs)
The Department of Health Care Policy and Financing (the Department) periodically modifies billing information. Therefore, the information in this manual is subject to change, and the manual is updated as new billing information is implemented.
Providers must be enrolled as a Health First Colorado (Colorado's Medicaid program) provider in order to:
- Treat a Health First Colorado member
- Submit claims for payment to Health First Colorado
Medical services provided in Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) are a benefit of Health First Colorado.
Ambulatory Surgery Centers are distinct entities that provide a surgical setting for members who do not require hospitalization. If the ASC is part of a hospital, the ASC portion must be physically separated from all other health services offered at the hospital.
To receive payment, the center must be certified as an ASC by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), licensed as an ASC by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE), and enrolled in Health First Colorado.
Providers should refer to the Code of Colorado Regulations, Program Rules (10 CCR 2505-10), for specific information when providing care in an ASC.
General Billing Information
Refer to the General Provider Information Manual for general billing information.
ASC Authorized Services
Services must be reported using HCPCS surgical procedure codes. This manual contains a complete list of the Health First Colorado-approved ASC procedure codes effective January 1, 2023. The list is divided into related groups for payment. Only surgical procedure codes that are published in this manual are ASC Health First Colorado benefits. Visit the Rate and Fee Schedule web page for a list of all ASC codes with their respective groupers.
Health First Colorado bulletins notify providers when annual coding updates are implemented.
Reimbursement
For payment purposes, ASC surgical procedures are grouped into ten categories. The Health First Colorado reimbursement rates are the lower of billed charges or the maximum allowable payment by group. Visit the Provider Rates and Fee Schedule web page on the Department's website for current ASC group rates.
Health First Colorado Program Payment Calculation
Submitted charges must represent usual and customary charges. Do not adjust charges to correspond to the anticipated Medicaid payment.
Health First Colorado providers must agree to accept Health First Colorado reimbursement as payment in full for benefit services. Health First Colorado members may not be billed for charges that exceed the Health First Colorado allowance. The Medicaid Management Information System (interChange) calculates payment as the provider's billed charge or the established rate for the group, whichever is less.
Multiple Procedures
When multiple procedures are performed during the same session, payment will correspond to the procedure with the highest allowed grouper amount. Additional payment is not available for multiple or subsequent procedures performed on the same date of service.
Medicare Crossover Payment
Health First Colorado payment for Part B Medicare crossover claims is made as follows:
- The sum of reported Medicare deductible and coinsurance or
- The Health First Colorado allowed benefit minus the Medicare payment, whichever is less. Third Party liability payments and Health First Colorado copay amounts, as applicable, will be subtracted after the crossover allowed payment has been determined.
If the amount paid by Medicare equals or is greater than the Health First Colorado benefit, the Health First Colorado Program makes no additional payment. This method of determining payment is commonly referred to as "lower-of" pricing.
Note: Except for applicable Health First Colorado copayment amounts, unpaid balances cannot be billed to the Health First Colorado member or the member's family.

Billing Procedures
Ambulatory Surgical Center facility claims are submitted as an 837 Professional (837P) electronic transaction or on the CMS 1500 paper claim form. Claim completion instructions are described in the above Billing Information. The following instructions are specific to ASC facility services claims. Ambulatory Surgical Center information does not apply to other provider types.
Ambulatory Surgical Center claims should be submitted electronically. Electronic claims submission reduces billing expense and claims processing time. Information about electronic claims submission may be obtained from Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Support, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time (MT).
Procedure codes: ASCs identify services using HCPCS surgical procedure codes. During claim processing, the surgical code is linked to an appropriate ASC group for payment calculation.
Billing Information
The ASC is responsible for obtaining required billing information from the surgeon. ASC providers are required to verify Health First Colorado eligibility before services are rendered. If eligibility is not verified, payment may be denied.
ICD-10-CM diagnosis: The diagnosis field(s) must be completed with an appropriate ICD-10-CM diagnosis code(s).
Place of service: Complete the Place Of Service (POS) field with a "24" for ASC facility charges.
Note: Electronic billers should consult the software instructions to assure that POS coding is submitted properly.
Rendering provider: Complete with the NPI number assigned to the operating surgeon.
Referring provider: If the member is enrolled in the Primary Care Physician (PCP) program and the operating surgeon is not the PCP, the PCP's NPI number must be entered in this field. PCP-enrolled members must obtain PCP referral if surgical services are performed by a physician other than the PCP. If the member does not have an assigned PCP, this field may be left blank.
Sterilization procedures: All sterilization claims must have an attached copy of a properly completed MED-178 sterilization consent form. The surgeon is responsible for providing a copy of the MED-178 to the ASC. Claims without a properly completed MED-178 are denied. Refer to the Obstetrical Care Billing Manual for complete billing requirements.
Hysterectomy procedures: Hysterectomy procedures are a benefit of Health First Colorado when performed solely for medical reasons. Hysterectomy is not a benefit if the procedure is performed solely for the purpose of sterilization, or if there was more than one purpose for the procedure and it would not have been performed but for the purpose of sterilization. Refer to the Obstetrical Care Billing Manual for complete billing requirements.
Medicare crossover claims: Health First Colorado pays the Medicare deductible and coinsurance or the Health First Colorado-allowed benefit minus the Medicare payment, whichever is less. If Medicare's payment equals or is more than the Health First Colorado allowed benefit, crossover claims are paid at zero.
Most Medicare crossover claims are transmitted electronically from Medicare to Health First Colorado. If a Medicare claim does not cross automatically, the provider is responsible for submitting a "hard copy crossover" claim on the CMS 1500 paper claim form. Refer to the end of the manual for an example of a completed paper crossover claim.
