Are you billing for chronic care management?

As of Jan. 1, physicians can use the new chronic care management (CCM) code (99490) when treating Medicare patients with multiple chronic conditions.

ACP has created a CCM toolkit to help you implement the CCM code in your practice. It includes background information for clinicians and staff, a step-by-step implementation guide, and a sample patient agreement. For more information about the CCM code and information about other regulatory programs, please visit ACP's Physician & Practice Timeline.
