I'm hoping to find someone who has some experience with billing APCM codes. More specifically how they bill a level 1 APCM (G0556).
A scenario - If there is no clear dx, is it possible to use a Z code from Z00-Z13 for the visit?

We have been billing APCM since 2025, when the codes were released. We do not enroll anyone unless they have at least 1 chronic condition. A chronic condition is expected to last more than 12 months or until death. Why was the patient enrolled in APCM? When we bill G0556, G0557, or G0558, we use the diagnoses that are associated with their care plan.
