Cardiology-Specific CPT code Lookup to Assist Correct Coding, Reimbursement, & Compliance

Code Search & Expert Advice Customized for Your Practice

CMS has posted the 2013 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule and an element getting a lot of attention from cardiologists is the Multiple Procedure Payment Reduction (MPPR). For cardiovascular services, full payment is made for the TC service with the highest payment under the MPFS. The payment is made at 75 percent for subsequent TC services furnished by the same physician (or by multiple physicians in the same group practice, i.e., same Group National Provider Identifier (NPI)) to the same patient on the same day.
This year’s final rule cuts payments for important cardiovascular services at a time when many cardiology practices are already vulnerable. The MPFS reveals that CMS received plenty of comments about the MPPR rule. The list of affected cardiovascular codes is several pages long, including services such as cardiac and vascular imaging, ECGs, device evaluations, echo, and Doppler.
