Ordering, Prescribing, and Referring (OPR) Requirements for Vision Services Stakeholder Engagement Session

The Department invites you to attend a learning session regarding federal Ordering, Prescribing, and Referring (OPR) regulations for vision services and upcoming deadlines for compliance. There will be time for questions and answers.  

Effective February 1, 2025 the Department of Health Care Policy & Financing will begin soft enforcement of the federal requirement 42 CFR § 455.440 that claims for vision services, including durable medical equipment (DME), contain the National Provider Identifier (NPI) of the provider who orders, prescribes, or refers a service, and that the provider is actively enrolled with Health First Colorado. The OPR claim edits will initially be set to "pay and report," however the Department will begin denying claims that do not list the OPR provider beginning April 1, 2025.
