In other words, is it enough just for the providers notes to say that they used play therapy? Then describe in the note how it was used? Also what is "play equipment"? In one note it described toys, and another he played basketball with the patient. Are both of those considered "play equipment"?
I would think they are, but I just want to be sure I am interpreting the code correctly. Also I know it is an add on code and I would use it in conjunction with a normal timed session code.
Also is there any reason we could not use 90785 because of credentialing issues? Or because we are an FQHC (Federally Qualified Health Center)?
Our providers are Licensed Social Workers, Psychiatrist, and a Licensed Addiction Counselor. The one using the play therapy is a Licensed Social Worker.
Thanks for any responses.
