Summary
BCBS Wyoming has updated telemedicine billing guidelines allowing telephonic and video visits to patient's home during COVID-19. Key changes include using GT modifier for telemedicine services (except PT/OT/ST), waiving cost-share for all telemedicine services through 8/31/20, and permitting telephonic visit codes 99441-99443.
Action Required
Immediately: Update billing system to add GT modifier to all telemedicine services except physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. Enable billing of CPT codes 99441, 99442, and 99443 for telephonic visits without GT modifier. Verify HIPAA-compliant technology is being used. Ensure documentation standards match office visit requirements.
