I have had a number of off-line and on-line requests for details about who, exactly, is paying for the deveopmental testing (96110 and 96111) and non-face-to-face codes (or the "telephone codes"), so Igor was kind enough to look it up for me.
As an aside, PCC allows our customers a great deal of flexibility when it comes to configuring their systems. Thus, our clients use all kinds of names/spellings/etc. for recording work done with individual payers. This is in contrast to the way that, say, Athenahealth does it, which is to hand you a list of payers and say, "Choose one." Though our method is friendlier, theirs is better for the amalgamation of data, so please forgive me if I somehow mis-categorize one or more of these plans. I have no fewer than 66 versions of "Aetna," for example, so it's easy to miss one. I also have only a partial listing of the Medicaids and BCBSs, as I didn't track down all the states yet. If your state info is missing, ask me.
Enough whining from me. Below, please find a list of payers whose patients have recorded payments on the 96110 in 2009 for our clients. Note: this does not mean that the payer covers the charge, but that it also may allow the patient to be billed for it. I thought that this was an important addition.
I'll look into updating this again in a few months. Tomorrow, a shorter list of the telephone codes.
