In recent years, there have been major changes to the way in which therapy services by assistants are reported. Much confusion remains on when modifiers must be assigned to procedures involving assistants. And updates to the Medicare policies for therapy with new threshold limits and the annual "always therapy" listing that also requires the use of modifiers can potentially change annually.
Stay on top of the latest changes and avoid common therapy services errors. Ensure that your therapy providers are informed and meeting current medical necessity, documentation, and coding requirements. Understand the correct use of timed and untimed codes and learn the new way in which caregiver training is reported. Get paid for the physical and/or occupational therapy services you deliver.
