Remote therapeutic monitoring – new CPT codes in 2022

Remote therapeutic monitoring: new in 2022

  • There are five new remote therapeutic monitoring codes in the general medicine section of CPT® which may be performed by physicians, PAs and NPs and other practitioners such as physical therapists and occupational therapists
  • These codes are for non-physiologic measures and the results can be uploaded digitally or reported by the patient
  • A physician, PA or NP must order these services and the device must be an FDA approved device

2022 brings new CPT® codes for remote therapeutic monitoring. These codes are in the general medicine section of the book and may be used by physicians, non-physician practitioners, and other practitioners. They are distinct from the remote physiologic monitoring in the evaluation and management section.
