There are 335 code changes in the new CPT edition reflecting the CPT Editorial Panel and the health care community\u2019s combined annual effort to capture and describe the latest scientific and technological advances in medical, surgical and diagnostic services.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-7\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe CPT code set is the foundation upon which every element of the medical community\u2014doctors, hospitals, allied health professionals, laboratories and payers\u2014can efficiently share accurate information about medical services,\u201d said AMA President Barbara L. McAneny, M.D. \u201cThe latest annual changes to the CPT code set reflect new technological and scientific advancements available to mainstream clinical practice and ensure the code set can fulfill its trusted role as the health system\u2019s common language for reporting contemporary medical procedures. That\u2019s why AMA believes CPT serves both as the language of medicine today and the code to its future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-8\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Among this year\u2019s important changes to CPT are code additions that reflect the tremendous potential of using connected health tools to better support clinicians in patient population health and care coordination services, and other novel delivery systems that are vital for improving the overall quality of health care.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-9\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">These include three new remote patient monitoring codes that reflect how health care professionals can more effectively and efficiently use technology to connect with their patients at home and gather data for care management and coordination. Also, two new inter-professional internet consultation codes have been added to reflect the increasing importance of using non-verbal communication technology to coordinate patient care between a consulting physician and a treating physician.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-10\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe AMA has urged the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service to adopt the new codes for remote patient monitoring and internet consulting and designate the related services for payment under federal health programs in 2019,\u201d said Dr. McAneny. \u201cMedicare\u2019s acceptance of the new codes would signal a landmark shift to better support physicians participating in patient population health and care coordination services that can be a significant part of a digital solution for improving the overall quality of medical care.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-11\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Additional CPT changes for 2019 include new and revised codes for skin biopsy, fine needle aspiration biopsy, adaptive behavior analysis, and central nervous system assessments including psychological and neuropsychological testing. Broad input from practicing physicians, medical specialty societies and the greater health care community was considered by the CPT Editorial Panel to produce the latest practical enhancements to CPT that reflect the coding demands of the modern health care system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-12\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">New CPT category I codes are effective for reporting as of Jan. 1, 2019. To assist the health care system in an orderly annual transition to a new CPT code set, the AMA releases each new edition four months ahead of the Jan. 1 operational date and develops an insider\u2019s view with detailed information on the new code changes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-13\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The AMA invites the health care community to learn more about the significant changes to CPT codes and descriptors by attending the CPT and RBRVS 2019 Annual Symposium in Chicago from Nov. 13-16, 2019. For additional information and registration, please visit the AMA website.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-14\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The 2019 CPT codes and descriptors can be imported straight into existing claims and billing software using the downloadable CPT 2019 Data File. The file contains the updated code set\u2019s complete descriptor package, including official descriptors for consumers and physicians, and the complete official CPT coding guidelines.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-15\">Don\u2019t let CPT changes disrupt your practice revenue.
