Reminder: Using HCPCS code G2212
We posted a web‑DENIS message in January to let you know the following:
- When billing an add‑on code for prolonged office or other outpatient evaluation and management services with a primary CPT procedure code of *99205 or *99215, you should use HCPCS code G2212 instead of *99417. CPT code *99417 isn’t covered.
For more information on HCPCS and CPT codes, refer to our 2021 CPT and HCPCS Update document, which was posted on the Clinical Criteria & Resources page of web‑DENIS early this year. It provided information on the new and deleted codes as of Jan. 1, 2021. |
