These codes are for use when E/M services are performed, of a type that would be done face-to-face, through a HIPAA compliant secure platform. These are for patient-initiated communications, and may be billed by clinicians who may independently bill an E/M service. They may not be used for work done by clinical staff or for clinicians who do not have E/M services in their scope of practice.
I am considering trying these codes. Unfortunately, AC does not recognize them so I can't bill through AC. I am on 10.1.3. Maybe they have updated on later version?? Bill
