My understanding is that during the crisis (so far until the end of April) we can bill usual office visit codes, with modifier 95, and place of service 2 (telemedicine), for doing live audiovisual visits. Also, even new patients can be seen as "audits will not be done" to assure all patients are established. It is possible that some payers may still prefer modifier GT, but I have not found definitive proof of that in my reading so far. Anyone dare challenge me? (or help...)

For Anthem we are advised use regular office visit codes with -95 modifier, Mcare just have place of service 02
even 'phone call visits' not even televisits are covered during the current time frame.
