Wiki Commercial Plans and G codes

[MAult142]

I've been reading that more and more commercial plans are accepting G0121 and G0105. And I've been checking the preventative coverage guidelines of our commercial plans and they are listing the G codes as acceptable codes.

I may be late to the party but, has anyone been billing G codes to commercial payers and what success have you seen?

Thanks,
Meghan

I contacted the commercial plans I bill that have Medicare products and asked them if they wanted the G codes for screenings - a lot of them do. (But this was only on claims for subscribers to their Medicare products - not on claims for subscribers to their commercial or Medicaid products.) It depends on the individual payer so you have to contact them and find out.
