BILLING RESPECTIVE CODE SETS
In accordance with the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) and Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, Mountain Health Co-Op will begin to deny claims on April 1st, 2022, when CPT and ICD do not cross match in the respective code set being billed. For accurate reporting of ICD-10/CPT, the documentation should describe the patient’s condition, services as well as symptoms, problems, and reasons for the encounter. Coding to the highest level of specificity is required when supported by the medical record and to support medical necessity.

Provider Policies
Mountain Health CO-OP has contracted with the University of Utah Health Plans to both process claims and oversees our care and utilization management programs.
Through these programs, care and utilization management teams assist members in obtaining the right care at the right time. Through their work, these teams help our members achieve the best outcome, using nationally-recognized, evidence-based guidelines.
As a non-profit, member-owned health insurance co-op, we are dedicated to ensuring access to quality cost-effective health insurance for our communities.
We offer an array of benefit plans that will fit your patient’s individual needs.
We believe doctors and hospitals should be fairly compensated for the work they perform.
