Calculates the rate payable for consecutive hospital days. The modifier value code is a combination using "level" for the date range and "skill" for the rate variations. If the service provider does not have one of the skills listed in this level modifier list, the system defaults to the rates indicated in HD1 and HD2. The Calls field and the Hospital Admission Date/Originating Encounter Date field must be entered when hospital days are claimed.
