Prolonged Services Codes for Medicare Preventive Medicine Services: G0513, G0514

There are HCPCS prolonged services codes to be used with Medicare preventive services reported based on time. CMS allows these prolonged care codes to be used with wellness visits.

Someone asked where to find the CMS chart with the intraservice guidelines. It is hidden deep on the CMS site! It is in the files that go with the 2018 Final Rule. Scroll down to about the 20th on the list and download 2018 List of Preventive Services Billed with Prolonged Preventive Codes.

Did you (or your clinician) ever have a wellness visit that took a really, truly, madly long time? And wondered what—if anything—you could bill with it? Wonder no more.
