Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Database: July Update

See the attachment in the instruction to your Medicare Administrative Contractor (PDF) (MAC) to learn about the July quarterly changes to the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Database:

• New codes
• Procedure status changes
• Code short descriptor revisions
• Payment policy indicator changes
• Established codes that now have the TC and 26 modifiers

Your MAC will give you 30-days’ notice before they implement these changes. Then, they’ll adjust claims that you bring to their attention.
