ICD-10-PCS: New Technology Add-on Payments provides the vital information necessary to ensure your organization is compensated appropriately for its use of new technologies.
The New Technology Add-on Payment (NTAP) program is designed to support the adoption of innovative medical technologies in hospitals. NTAP provides additional payments for certain qualifying new drugs, devices, or therapies on top of the standard MS-DRG payment
ICD-10-PCS: New Technology Add-on Payments:
- Explores the purpose and concept of New Technology Add-on Payments (NTAP) and why accurate coding is vital to payment
- Identifies the 10 steps to setting up a compliant coding and reimbursement workflow that supports accurate NTAP claims submissions
- Provides detailed description of the items that are new to the NTAP list for FY 2026
Bonus! Libman Education’s “FY2026 New Technology Add-on Payment Opportunities” is included with the course. The white paper summarizes important information on the NTAP program and the ten steps you can take to ensure correct coding and reimbursement.
There is always more to learn in coding! If mastering ICD-10-PCS is on your ‘to-do’ list, consider Libman Education’s eLearning Library: Inpatient Coding. An affordable option that offers on-demand access to mastery-level courses to enhance job-specific, self-paced learning for one full year.
