home visits

<< < (2/3) > >>

rdmoore2003:
ok great.  thanks for your help.   This is a territory we are looking into and I just trying to cover all basis for my providers.

PMRNC:
I have one client who does a couple of here and there home visits, one of the carriers is Aetna and the other is BCBS, both will actually authorize home visits after medical documentation is submitted from the medical provider and they will issue the authorization that will specifically state for home visits. Both only authorize one at a time though so we have to keep on top of the patient's doctor for when a new treatment report is needed.

rlh76:
Is there a way to get paid for travel time/mileage for home visits?  What cpt4 would be used...for example to send to a workers comp or auto carrier?

rdmoore2003:
that is a very good question.   I would love to find out that answer also.   However, I am thinking that drive time may be included in the cpt. 

Michele:
I am not aware of any cpt code for travel time/mileage.  I believe it is included with the rate when the place of service 12 is used.
