YourCare Health Plan fees are calculated utilizing 2016 Medicare RBRVS methodologies and RVU tables with conversion factors for appropriate code sets. Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants will be reimbursed at 85% of their supervising physician’s conversion factor for most services.
Anesthesia services utilize the prevailing based conversion factor multiplied by the Anesthesia Society of America (ASA) base anesthesia service units and subsequent time methodology. Non anesthesia services will be reimbursed at the community based professional fee schedule.
The fee schedule will be available on their Website at www.yourcarehealthplan.com on or around April 1, 2017.
