Google cpt G0438 and then go to cms.gov link... it takes you to the Medicare Wellness guideline.

I bill for a PharmD on the wellness visits. A PharmD cannot perform the Welcome to Medicare (G0402). They can bill for the G0438 and G0439 as incident-to. The billing has to be signed by a supervising physician AND have the supervising statement as well.
