Coding for Prolonged Services: 2023 Edition
Recorded March 16, 2023
Prolonged care coding has new challenges in 2023. There are both CPT® codes and HCPCS codes. The two code sets use different time thresholds. For some prolonged care services, CMS is allowing work done on a day prior to the primary visit and days after the visit, and some allow work done on days after the visit. This webinar will describe the coding rules for each set of prolonged care codes, and discuss the CPT/CMS variance in non-face-to-face prolonged care.
After the presentation participants will be able to:
- Describe the documentation requirements for prolonged care
- State the rule for selecting the level of primary code before adding a prolonged care code
- Understand the source of CMS’s time thresholds
