CMS permanently changed the fee schedule adjustment policy for Group 3 complex rehab power wheelchair accessories. Effective July 1, 2017, fee schedule adjustments based on competitive bid pricing no longer impact these accessories. To secure proper payment, suppliers must add the KU modifier to seat and back cushions and other accessories attached to Group 3 complex bases. Educate your billing staff and configure your billing software to prompt for the use of the KU modifier for these accessories when appropriate.
