Procedure code C1300 is only reportable in the outpatient department of the hospital. In Skilled nursing facilities HBO therapy is part of the SNF PPS payment for beneficiaries in covered Part A stays. See question #10 for additional billing information regarding procedure code C1300.

Procedure Code C1300 is not available for use other than in a hospital outpatient department. In SNFs, HBO therapy is part of the SNF PPS payment for beneficiaries in covered Part A stays.
