I bill for PCP's and bill code 96101 with psychological diag. codes primary for 96101 or mini mental, not for the E&M for E&M I use medical codes with modifier 25, Some insur companies reimburse for PCP's and some do not because they fall under the behavior health benefits, and based on the scope of practice for the provider they pay them, but some require they be certified to provide those service. When verifying benefits we always ask if prior authorization is required, and if based on the NPI of the provider will they pay them that type of service. If it is not a benefit for my providers, and patients are coming in only for depression or anxiety, we will ask the provider to diagnosis "signs and symptoms, such as fatigue, shortness of breath, pain, etc. and the level of E&M is based on complexity, or counseling time, or integration of test.
