1 Psychiatry CPT Coding Changes for 2013 Presented by Richard Morgenstern, M.D. Clinical Director, ICANotes
2 The First Big Change (Pharmacologic Management) is eliminated and replaced with Evaluation and Management (E/M) codes* Why this change is good: paid a fixed fee regardless of how complicated the case was. E/M codes pay higher fees for moderate and high complexity cases. Also, whatever the complexity, with some documentation diligence a moderate level of complexity reimbursement level can always be achieved. (More on this later) * Please note: these codes are for prescribers only.
3 The First Big Change replaced with E/M codes Why this change is bad: E/M coding is complicated! It depends on: What documentation history elements are in your note (severity of symptoms, timing, etc.) How many exam elements are in your note (mood, memory, judgment, etc.) The complexity of the case The number of documentation elements required varies from site to site. Offices, nursing homes, and hospitals all have different requirements. You practically need a computer to keep track of where you are, what elements are in your note, and what code is supported.
4 The First Big Change replaced with E/M codes Why this change is not so bad: Because some computer programs, including ICANotes, can keep track of: what documentation is in your note where you are working and what E/M code is supported (more on this later)
5 The Second Big Change (Psychiatric Diagnostic Interview) has been eliminated and replaced by codes that distinguish between Initial or Complete Evaluations done by prescribers and those done by non-prescribers The new codes are: for non-prescribers and for prescribers (Yes, complexity code can be added here) Presumably two different compensation levels will be offered Both and can be billed on the same day
6 The Third Big Change Psychotherapy Code Changes! The following psychotherapy codes are being eliminated: (Psychotherapy with E/M Services, outpatient) (Interactive Psychotherapy) (Psychotherapy with E/M Services, inpatient) (Family Psychotherapy) (Interactive Group Psychotherapy) (Note: Non-Family Group Psychotherapy may still be used) There will be three new psychotherapy alone codes in all settings that are dependent on time spent face-to-face with the patient and/or family (this is new; it used to be just time spent with the patient) How much time? What codes? '' (16''-37'') '' (38''-52'') '' (53''+ )
7 The Third Big Change Question: What about the Psychotherapy with E/M service codes: How do we bill for that now? Answer: Bill for the E/M service and Bill for Psychotherapy using an Add-On Psychotherapy code Add-On codes for Psychotherapy when using E/M services: '' (16''-37'') '' (38''-52'') '' (53''+ ) This is better than the old psychotherapy with E/M services because the E/M code is adjusted for complexity (unlike previously) and the psychotherapy add-on is adjusted for time (as before)
8 Psychotherapy Add-On s These can be used with the new psychotherapy codes or the psychotherapy codes used in conjunction with E/M Services The + identifies it as an add-on code but is not used when submitting the charge amplifies other services; it never stands alone. Interactive Complexity Add-On: This replaces As the name implies, this add-on code can be used when the psychotherapy interaction is more complex than normal communication problems. For example, the patient is highly reactive perhaps because of high anxiety, repeated questioning, or disagreement. Examples: For Play Therapy When communication problems exist When a translator is needed When there is a maladaptive communication that complicates therapy as described above When caregiver problems compromise treatment When a sentinel event requires extra work and reports (such as with indication of abuse or neglect when a report is mandatory) Note: the reason for the additional complexity must be documented, of course!
9 Psychotherapy Add-On s Patient In Crisis Add-On: minutes (53'' -74'') each additional 30'' The presenting problem would be typically life threatening or complex and require immediate attention to a patient in high distress. Note: These codes are for non-prescribers. A prescriber would indicate the higher complexity by using a high complexity E/M code.
10 Three Codes?! Yes, some sessions will require as many as three codes! For example: an E/M code with complexity included (99213) a psychotherapy code (90836) and an interactive complexity code (+90875)
11 A Good Question What about existing contracts with insurers for specific codes? Answer: (from the APA website) The APA has been contacting major insurers to help ease the transition to the new codes. New contracts may need to be drawn up that reflect the new set of codes. Insurers may use a crosswalk from the old codes to the new so that no negotiations will need to take place. In fact, even now, under parity, all insurers should reimburse psychiatrists when they bill using one of the E/M codes, which are used by all physicians.
