In no event shall a per diem qualify as an Outlier. These benefits shall be allowed when the Member has received Medically Necessary Covered Services subject to the following policy limitations and conditions: a) EGID shall pay the appropriate percentage of the MS-DRG Allowable Fee and the Member shall pay the remainder of the MS-DRG Allowable Fee unless the Member has met the stop loss limitation, and then EGID shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of the MS-DRG Allowable Fee and the Member has no liability. b) The MS-DRG shall be controlling, subject to EGID’s approval and Article X of the Contract. c) The MS-DRG Allowable Fee does not include any physician professional component fees, which are considered for payment according to separately billed Current Procedural Terminology code Allowable Fees. d) EGID may reduce its payment by any deductibles, coinsurance and co- payments owed by the Member. e) EGID shall include the day of admission but not the day of discharge when computing the number of facility days provided to a Member.

EGID shall allow payment to the receiving Facility, if it is also the final discharging Facility, at the MS- DRG Allowable Fee as if it were an original admission. g) EGID shall use the current version of the CMS MS-DRG grouper to categorize what shall constitute a procedure.
