FL 42 - Revenue Code
Required. The provider enters the appropriate revenue codes from the following list to
identify specific accommodation and/or ancillary charges. It must enter the appropriate
numeric revenue code on the adjacent line in FL 42 to explain each charge in FL 47.
Additionally, there is no fixed "Total" line in the charge area. The provider must enter
revenue code 0001 instead in FL 42. Thus, the adjacent charges entry in FL 47 is the sum
of charges billed. This is the same line on which non-covered charges, in FL 48, if any,
are summed. To assist in bill review, the provider must list revenue codes in ascending
numeric sequence and not repeat on the same bill to the extent possible. To limit the
number of line items on each bill, it should sum revenue codes at the "zero" level to the
extent possible.
Codes used for Medicare claims are available from Medicare contractors. Codes are also
available from the NUBC (www.nubc.org) via the NUBC's Official UB-04 Data
Specifications Manual.
