Wiki Medicare consults (99241-99245)

[carriebeth]

Has anyone read/seen that Medicare will not be paying for these codes (99241-99245) as of 1/2010?

Yes, that is the direction they are wanting to take

That is in the 2010 proposed rule, it would be all consults inpatient and outpatient, and it is not finalized yet.
