SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
FOR PAYMENT / REIMBURSEMENT FOR UMBILICAL CORD BLOOD COLLECTIONS
CorCell®’s reimbursement program provides up to $100 for professional services rendered in the collection of umbilical cord blood for patients who have chosen CorCell as their cord blood bank. The guidelines are as follows:
1. A successful umbilical cord blood collection using a CorCell collection kit must take place.
2. The Physician / Midwife office should submit a request for payment to CorCell. Send a typical HCFA/CMS 1500 form to:
CorCell Companies, Inc.
Attn: Accounts Payable
1857 Helm Drive
Las Vegas, NV 89119
OR fax it to (702) 914-7251.
3. The submission to CorCell must be received within 90 days of the date of the collection (birth date).
4. Upon timely receipt and acceptance of the required documentation, CorCell will process and mail payment for up to $100 to the Physician / Midwife office.
Reminder: It is improper to request payment for the same service from two different payers. Your submission of a request for payment from CorCell constitutes a representation that compensation for the same service is not being sought from any other payer.
5. In situations where a Physician / Midwife requires patients to prepay the Physician / Midwife for fees associated with collecting their baby’s cord blood, the patient can forward a detailed paid receipt to CorCell at the above address.
Once the collection has taken place, CorCell will directly reimburse the patient $100.
CorCell reserves the right to cancel or alter this program at any time. If you have any questions, please contact CorCell at (888) 882-2673.
