New Place of Service Code For January 2017, a new Place of Service (POS) code is available:
POS code: 02 Name: Telehealth
Description: The location where health services and health related services are provided or received, through a telecommunication system.
New Telehealth Modifier ( for synchronous 2-way telehealth services) CPT officially has a telehealth modifier. CMS will continue to recognize telehealth modifiers GT and GQ.
95 Synchronous Telemedicine Services Rendered Via a Real-Time Interactive Audio and
Video Telecommunications System
See Appendix P of 2017 CPT for a list of codes that may be billed with modifier 95
Reminder: JW Modifier in Effect January 1, 2017 Use of modifier JW for discarded or unused portions of single-use vial drugs will be required starting January 1, 2017.
JW Drug amount discarded/not administered to any patient
Check with commercial carriers to see if they recognize modifier JW.
Modifier JW is for single-use drug vials where the amount administered is less than the total units in the vial and the remainder is unused/discarded.
Example: CPT J0585 (Botulinum Toxin A - Botox) is in a 100 unit single- use vial. This code is billed per unit administered. A patient is given 65 units from a 100 unit single-use vial. You bill:
Do not use for J-codes that include “up to” a certain number of units. (e.g., J3301 is billed per 10mg, and you administer only 5mg, you bill J3301 x 1 unit which includes 5mg given plus 5mg of the unused drug)

Correct Coding Initiative Version 23.0 Effective Ja nuary 2017 Version 23.0 of the Correct Coding Initiative (CCI) goes into effect January 2017. Every three months, CMS publishes a new list of the pairs of codes they consider bundled together and not payable separately. The exception is when these procedures or services are performed on unrelated sites or lesions. The biller adds modifier 59/XS to the claim to override the payment and get the claim paid. The trick is to know which dermatology codes need modifier 59/XS and which ones do not. January adds 404 changes to the current CCI listing for dermatology. This is comprised of 258 new code bundles and 146 deleted code bundles. CMS (and most commercials) are still allowing use of modifier 59 or the ‘X’ modifiers that were introduced in 2015. XS would be the most common ‘X’ modifier used in dermatology. For an article on the proper use of ‘X’ modifiers, please visit the ECS website: http://www.ellzeycodingsolutions.com/kb_results.asp ?all=Y Ellzey Coding Solutions can provide dermatologists and staff with a filtered comprehensive listing of the CCI bundles only affecting dermatology CPT codes. Our listing is available in PDF and printed format and provides an additional 34 pages of instructions on the proper use of modifiers 25/57, and 59(XS).
Correct Coding Initiative for Dermatology
Our dermatology-specific listing consists of over 55,100+ code bundles based on 831 possible CPT/HCPCS code used by dermatologists. We also list the new and deleted code pair changes for the previous year. 800 pages available in printed format or electronic PDF format. Current edition and annual subscriptions available.

2017 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule On November 14, 2016, CMS officially released the 2017 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule. These fee schedules are available on your carrier’s website. 2017 Medicare fee schedules can also be viewed in DermCoder. DermCoder also has the ability to generate a second fee schedule based on a multiple of the Medicare fee schedule. For example, some practices create a fee schedule that is 150% or 200% of the Medicare allowable. DermCoder users can easily calculate and export those fees for you for importing into your EMR or PM system. For 2017, the Conversion Factor (CF) will be $35.8887. For comparison, the 2016 CF was $35.8043. In addition to the Conversion Factor, geographic adjustment factors have been recalculated for each payment locality. Lastly, the relative value units have been adjusted for many services. Overall, the fee schedule changes for dermatology will be neutral, with an overall average net effect of about 0% for most providers. Here are a few of the significant findings…
• CPT 99211 (Nurse visits) will see an increase of about 2% • Technical components for 88304/88305 will see a decrease of -14.3% and -13.3%
respectively. • Large intermediate repair codes of the face, ears, eyelids, nose, lips (CPT
12056/12057) will see a decrease of -9.92% and -3.21% respectively. • Excision of a nail matrix (CPT 11750) will see a decrease of -14.87% • Avulsion of the nail plate , first (CPT code 11730) will see an increase of 6.32% while
the avulsion of nail plate, add-on (CPT 11732) will see a decrease of -10.67% • Dermabrasion, superficial, other than face (CPT 15783), will see an increase of about
2.81% Modifier 25 Audits on the Rise! The Office of Inspector General (OIG) and many commercial carriers are continuing to audit all providers on inappropriate modifier 25 usage. The incorrect use of modifier 25 is one of the most common errors we see when auditing dermatology encounters. It is also one of the most commonly misunderstood E/M modifiers. Long gone are the days of automatically billing an E/M visit with any type of surgical visit by adding modifier 25. If a high percentage of your encounters have E/M visits billed, even for new patients, take notice.

2017 Medicare Part B and Part A Deductible and Coin surance 2017 Part B - Supplementary medical insurance (SMI) Under Part B of the Medicare supplementary medical insurance (SMI) program, enrollees are subject to a monthly premium. Most SMI services are subject to an annual deductible and coinsurance (percent of costs that the enrollee must pay), which are set by statute.
Deductible: $183 a year Coinsurance: 20 percent
2017 Part A - Hospital insurance
Deductible: $1,316.00 Coinsurance: • $0 a day for days 1-60 • $329 a day for 61st-90th day • $658 a day for 91st-150th day (lifetime reserve days) • $164.50 a day for 21st-100th day (skilled nursing facility coinsurance)
Mandatory Reporting of 10 and 90-day Global Period Postoperative Care Services for Large Group Practices in Select States Starting July 1, 2017, CMS will require providers that perform postoperative care for certain services with 10 and 90-day global periods to report all instances where postop care is delivered. Global postoperative care typically consists of the following types of activities:
• Review vitals, laboratory or pathology results, imaging, and progress notes. • Take interim patient history and evaluate post-operative progress. • Assess bowel function. • Conduct patient examination with a specific focus on incisions and wounds, post-
surgical pain, complications, fluid and diet intake. • Manage medications (for example, wean pain medications). • Remove stitches, sutures, and staples. • Change dressings. • Counsel patient and family in person or via phone. • Write progress notes, post-operative orders, prescriptions, and discharge summary. • Contact/coordinate care with referring physician or other clinical staff. • Complete forms or other paperwork.

CPT copyright 2015, American Medical Association. All rights reserved.
However, this rule will only affect providers in groups of 10 or more providers in the following states only:
• Florida • Kentucky • Louisiana • Nevada • New Jersey
• North Dakota • Ohio • Oregon • Rhode Island
CMS has stated that only certain services with 10 and 90-day postop periods will require this reporting. The codes that qualify for reporting will need to have been provided by more than 100 providers nationally and are furnished either 10,000 or more times annually or have more than $10 million in annual allowed charges. CMS states that they will release the list of codes on or after January 1, 2017.
Although reporting will be mandatory for this limited group of providers (in certain states) starting July 1st, earlier voluntary reporting is encouraged. Solo practitioners and providers in smaller groups are also encouraged to voluntarily report, but there is no mandate.
Reporting will be accomplished using CPT code 99024. Previously CMS recommended a few different G-codes, but settled on the existing CPT code 99024 in the final ruling published in the Federal Register on November 15, 2016. 99024 Postoperative follow-up visit, normally included in the surgical package, to indicate
that an evaluation and management service was performed during a postoperative period for a reason(s) related to the original procedure
This code is billed once per postoperative visit, regardless of the activities performed or time spent, and is a non-reimbursable code. Since it is used for reporting purposes only, it should be billed at $0.01 as to not reject out of billing software, claim-scrubbers, or clearinghouses.
This code is not to be used for postoperative complications that are not included in the global surgical package. This typically includes complications such as wound dehiscence, infection or abscess, hematoma I&D, repair of bleeders, etc. Providers can continue to bill for these services using modifier 24 (E/M visits) and modifier 79 for postop complication surgical services.
