I am new here and our CCM program is new also. Now my question is G0506 is billable if the E/M is not at the same DOS?
G0506 is for care planing, E/M bills E/M for the assessment. Care Plan must have the assessment. Regarding CMS Chronic Care Management, the patient who has 2 and more chronic conditions, and has been with the provider for 12 months is qualified for the CCM, so the E/M may be billed early when CCM does care planing, which when bill G0506. I mean, the assessment and care planing may has a gap. Can I bill G0506 without E/M in the same DOS?
I appreciate anybody’s help in advance. Thank you.
