Billing for Services at MOGA
Effective Monday, August 5, 2024
For services received on or after August 5, MMC will no longer charge a facility fee for individuals with commercial insurance at Meadville Obstetrics and Gynecology Associates (MOGA). MMC is required, however, to continue charging Medicaid and Medicare patients a facility fee. Medicare and Medicaid will continue to cover these costs, so patients should still see little to no out-of-pocket expenses.
This is due to funding in the 2024-25 Pennsylvania State budget that provides additional funding specifically for obstetric and neonatal services. More information can be found in our official press release.
Billing FAQs
- Has MMC sold Meadville Obstetrics and Gynecology Associates (MOGA)?
- No, MOGA remains a department of the hospital.
- Why did MMC decide to change the billing process in MOGA?
- MMC’s intention was always to analyze the financial performance of MOGA and adjust the billing process if possible. New funding from the State made this adjustment financially feasible.
- Why do Medicaid and Medicare patients still receive a facility (technical) fee?
- Billing rules require that provider-based locations submit claims using a method known as “split-billing” for Medicare and Medicaid patients.
- Are any services going away?
- No. In fact, the plan is to increase services and offer additional pre-natal and post-delivery care for obstetrics patients.
