Medicare Benchmark Report For Physician Home Visits On Deck

Physicians furnishing services in the home may have a wake-up call in store. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services will issue a national provider Comparative Billing Report on Home Evaluation and Management (E/M) Services this month, it says.

The CBR from CMS contractor eGlobal-Tech will focus on providers who bill CPT codes 99347 through 99350 to report E/M services to patients in their private residences, CMS explains. “The report will contain data-driven tables with an explanation of findings that compare providers’ billing and payment patterns to those of their peers in their state and across the nation.”
