CPCP033 Telemedicine and Telehealth Services Update

We updated the Telemedicine and Telehealth Services Clinical Payment and Coding Policy (CPCP) on March 25, 2021 to include temporary and expanded services effective as of January 1, 2021. A link to a list of procedure codes that are eligible for reimbursement is accessible in the policy and on the Telemedicine and Telehealth Services page on the provider website.

Refer to Clinical Payment and Coding Policies under Standards and Requirements on the provider website to review the current CPCPs. If you have any questions or if you need additional information, please contact your BCBSTX Network Management Representative.

Clinical payment and coding policies are based on using healthcare professionals and industry standard guidelines. The clinical payment and coding guidelines are not intended to provide billing or coding advice but to serve as a reference for facilities and providers.
