I am working for a FQHC and we are implementing a detox program into one of our residential rehabilitation service center. Suppose to be in patient and out patient. I do not know what codes to use to bill these services. 99408 and 99409 are screenings with interventions(Insurance) G0396 and G0397 (Medicare) and H0049 and H0050 (medicaide)... Are these correct? Would I use a behavioral health code instead?

You bill for what is performed. Are they getting group psychotherapy? Individual psychotherapy? Are they having one-on-one visits with an MD? Are they seeing physical therapy? Occupational therapy? Team conferences of 30 minutes or more per patient?
Look at H0001 thru H0050 if the insurance uses HCPCS codes. (link)
