Wiki Behavioral Health billing to Medicare Part B

[Saturnsun]

When billing for BH services- intake and ongoing- where do you find the code sets used for Medicare part B in Arizona?
I submitted an H0031 and it was denied. Does anyone have any information to share with me, please, any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. This is a new area in our multi-specialty clinic.
Thank you in advance,
Stephanie

Mental Health services for Medicare Part B bill under regular CPT codes

I looked up H0031 in HCPCS and it specifically says, "Service not separately priced by Part B"

I bill for clinical psychologists and psychiatrists and have never had a problem using the standard 9083x codes and 9079x codes
