  4. Principal Care Management Billing Codes For FY 2022 Principal Care Management Billing Codes For FY 2022 Requirements for Billing PCM Services: CMS has set forth several requirements that must be met for billing PCM codes for services provided to a patient. Important conditions include: • The billing practitioner must be a physician or a qualified health care practitioner. • PCM services should not be reported by the same practitioner simultaneously with other care management services. • The billing practitioner should document ongoing communication and care coordination between all practitioners providing care to the patient. • According to the Final Rule, the expected outcome of the provision of PCM services is for the patient’s condition to be stabilized by the treating specialist so that overall care can be returned to the patient’s primary care practitioner. • Consent –The patient’s informed consent can be obtained verbally or in writing and should be documented in the patient’s medical record. • For new patients and patients not seen within a year prior to initiation of PCM, the billing practitioner must conduct an initiating visit with the patient to educate the patient on PCM and obtain the patient’s informed consent. This visit can be an annual wellness visit (AWV) or other separately billable visit. Email us at: richard.smith@medisysdata.com Call us at: 302-261-9187
