Insurance reimbursement for telephone calls?
(1/1)
Alice Scott:
Question
Do you know of any commercial insurance companies that actually reimburse physicians for telephone calls? 99371-99373? And if so, which one’s?

Hi Bridget,
I am not aware of any specific insurance carriers that do allow for telephone calls. The few that I have billed were not allowed. Each plan and company goes by their own guidelines.
Sorry I couldn’t be of more help.

Regarding telephone calls, amazingly Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation pays for them, it is clearly written in their policy manual and it is one issues that I try to mention to those providers treating BWC patients when consulting or taking over a new practice management contract. A lot of them are unaware and very happy to hear this. I share the documentation guidelines and instruction them on following them compliantly.

Thanks for that information!!
