Our FI which is Empire has also never paid for 100 days of oxygen use. I am in NY state NJL ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2004 3:13 PM Subject: Re: To skill or not If the FI paid for 100 days related to oxygen use and it still continues they have a basis for denial.  However, I have never been able to get any FI in CA to pay for oxygen use for 100 days.  I would love to see their medical review criteria on this. What FI?  let's check it out Delores #1 - Yes the facility billed Medicare Part A for 100 days of skilled care r/t oxygen use. #2 - I meant the Fiscal Intermediary. #3 - Other that the Oxygen use, resident was not receiving any other skilled services.
