Minnesota Rules: Amendments and AdditionsNOTICE: How to Follow State Agency Rulemaking in the State RegisterThe State Register is the official source, and only complete listing, for all state agency rulemaking in its various stages. State agencies are required to

publish notice of their rulemaking action in the State Register. Published every Monday, the State Register makes it easy to follow and participate in the important rulemaking process. Approximately 80 state agencies have the authority to issue rules. Each agency is assigned specific Minnesota Rule chapter numbers. Every odd-numbered year the Minnesota Rules are published. Supplements are published to update this set of rules. Generally speaking, pro-posed and adopted exempt rules do not appear in this set because of their short-term nature, but are published in the State Register.

An agency must first solicit Comments on Planned Rules or Comments on Planned Rule Amendments from the public on the subject matter of a possible rulemaking proposal under active consideration within the agency (Minnesota Statutes §§ 14.101). It does this by publishing a notice in the State Register at least 60 days before publication of a notice to adopt or a notice of hearing, or within 60 days of the effective date of any new statutory grant of required rulemaking.

When rules are first drafted, state agencies publish them as Proposed Rules, along with a notice of hearing, or a notice of intent to adopt rules without a hearing in the case of noncontroversial rules. This notice asks for comment on the rules as proposed. Proposed emergency rules, and withdrawn proposed rules, are also published in the State Register. After proposed rules have gone through the comment period, and have been rewritten into their final form, they again appear in the State Register as Adopted Rules. These final adopted rules are not printed in their entirety, but only the changes made since their publication as Proposed Rules. To see the full rule, as adopted and in effect, a person simply needs two issues of the State Register, the issue the rule ap-peared in as proposed, and later as adopted.

The State Register features partial and cumulative listings of rules in this section on the following schedule: issues #1-13 inclusive; issues #14-25 inclusive (issue #26 cumulative for issues #1-26); issues #27-38 inclusive (issue #39, cumulative for issues #1-39); issues #40-52 inclusive, with final index (#1-52, or 53 in some years). An annual subject matter index for rules was separately printed usually in August, but starting with Volume 19 now appears in the final issue of each volume. For copies or subscriptions to the State Register, contact Minnesota’s Bookstore, 660 Olive Street (one block east of I-35E and one block north of University Ave), St. Paul, MN 55155, phone: (612) 297-3000, or toll-free 1-800-657-3757.

5221.4035 FEE ADJUSTMENTS FOR MEDICAL/SURGICAL SERVICES.

[For text of subps 1 to 4, see M.R.] Subp. 5. Coding and payment for multiple surgeries and procedures. Part 5221.4020, subpart 2a, item S, and column S in the tables incorporated by reference in part 5221.4005, subpart 1, item A, describe codes subject to the multiple procedures payment restrictions. Multiple surgeries are separate surgeries performed by a single physician on the same patient at the same operative session or on the same day for which separate payment may be allowed.

[For text of items A to E, see M.R.] F. For diagnostic imaging procedures with an indicator of 4 in column S, special rules for the technical component (TC) and professional component (PC) of diagnostic imaging procedures apply if the procedure is billed with another diagnostic imaging procedure with indicator 88 in column AB. If the procedure is furnished by the same provider, or different providers in the same group practice, to the same patient in the same session on the same day as another procedure with indicator 88, the procedures must be ranked according to the maximum fee for the technical component and professional component, calculated according to the formula in part 5221.4020, subpart 1b. The technical component with the highest maximum fee is paid at 100 percent, and the technical component of each subsequent procedure is paid at 50 percent. The professional component with the highest maximum fee is paid at 100 percent, and the professional component of each subsequent procedure is paid at 75 percent. For example:

Unadjusted Maximum Fee, Procedure 1


Total Adjusted Maximum Fee

Calculation of Total Adjusted Maximum Fee

PC $68 $102 $152 $102 + (.75 x $68)TC $476 $340 $646 $476 + (.50 x $340)Global $544 $816 $799 $102 + (.75 x $68) + $476 + (.50 x $340)

G. For procedures with an indicator of 5 in column S that are not also listed in part 5221.4050, subpart 2d, or 5221.4060, subpart 2d, the following rules in subitems (1) to (4) apply to establish the maximum fee according to the formula in part 5221.4020, subpart 1b:.

[For text of subitem (1), see M.R.] (2) For subsequent units and procedures furnished to the same patient on the same day in office settings and other non-institutional settings, full payment is made for the work and malpractice expense RVUs and 80 50 percent payment is made for the practice expense RVU. (3) For subsequent units and procedures furnished to the same patient on the same day in institutional settings, full payment is made for the work and malpractice expense RVUs and 75 percent payment is made for the practice expense RVU. (4) (3) For therapy services furnished by a provider, a group practice, or incident to a provider’s service, the reduction described under this subitem applies to all services furnished to a patient on the same day, regardless of whether the services are provided in one therapy discipline or multiple disciplines, such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, or speech-language pathology, and regardless of the type of provider or supplier.

5221.4050 PHYSICAL MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION PROCEDURE CODES.

[For text of subps 1 to 2c, see M.R.] Subp. 2d. List of physical medicine and rehabilitation procedure codes. The physical medicine and rehabilitation conver-sion factor in part 5221.4020, subpart 1b, item B, applies to the health care providers listed in part 5221.0700, subpart 3, item C, subitem (4), when they provide, within their scope of practice, the services, articles, or supplies identified by procedure codes 97001 through 97799, 97810 through 97814, and V5336 to V5364 in the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule tables described in part 5221.4005. Subp. 3. Additional payment instructions. The instructions and examples in items A to D are in addition to CPT code descriptions found in the CPT manual. Additional instructions include both general instructions for a group of codes as well as specific instructions for an individual specific code. A. Supervised modalities.

Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) Notice of Disposition for a Portion of Rail Bank Property in Melrose

The State of Minnesota, acting through its commissioner of transportation, has ownership of the rail bank corridor, and is pro-posing a sale of a 50-foot strip of rail bank property to the City of Melrose, Stearns County. The total corridor width is currently 150 feet. This notice is published pursuant to Minnesota Statute 222.63, subd. 3, and Minnesota rules 8830.5820 and 8830.5840

The 50-foot strip, proposed for sale to the City, retains a 100 foot corridor for the railbank. The 50-foot strip of land is adjacent to the existing City of Melrose’s electrical substation on the rail bank corridor. The sale is 0.07 miles long and contains approximately 21,000 square feet. This rail bank line located in Melrose had its tracks removed and was acquired initially from the Burlington Northern Railroad in 1994.

The City requested the State to sell a strip of rail bank for economic development in the City. The State plans no conditions on the sale to the City. The sale would be for appraised value.

After sale of the rail bank strip to the City, the City plans to combine the rail bank parcel and electrical substation parcel, which would then create a larger parcel for the City’s use.

The State is reviewing the need for the sale and soliciting comments to the proposed sale of a portion of the rail bank.

If any person objects to the above action, written notification must be received by Monday, November 14, 2016, by the De-partment of Transportation’s contact for the above matter:
