I bill to Medicare for PT, OT & SLP services with a POS 62 (CORF). Medicare has implemented using Function-related HCPCS G-codes beginning on 1/1/13 and I am getting confused on when to exactly use them. A few questions I have are....
1. Do I use a "current" AND "goal" code on the initial therapy DOS?
2. On every 10th treatment day, do I use a "current" and "goal" code again or just a "goal" code?
3. On the last day of treatment for each claim (using TOB 743-Continuing) do I use just the "goal" code?
The "discharge" code is totally easy to understand but I just want to clarify when the other two codes get used and how often. I have printed the CMS Manual (Pub 100-04) but it has me asking these questions. The last thing I want to do is get them denied and have to re-bill.
