SUD provider is wondering what "per Diem" means under units column. Would this be just 1 unit per code (ex. H0015), or more than 1 unit?
 
This is how our medicaid explains it... • Only used if the person attends for the minimum needed to bill the per diem (2+ hours) in a group which does not exceed the practitioner‐to‐client ratio • If person doesn’t meet the minimum 2+ hours, 90853 or H0005 may be used • Service is billed in whole unit only ‐ All other services must be billed outside of H0015 ‐ One H0015 per diem, per patient, per day
