Hi!
I'm hoping some of you have experience with billing and reimbursement for CPT 99406/99407 smoking cessation counseling. We are an internal medicine practice (pcp) and are looking for some guidance on billing requirements. I read that Medicare covers 8 cessation counseling sessions per year (not per provider) so that part I understand.
When are we allowed to bill for it? Can it be billed at the same time as a annual physical (for non Medicare) or at the same time as a Medicare Wellness visit G0438/G0439? Do we just need to add modifier 25 to the E/M?
I would greatly appreciate any feedback. THANKS!!
