CMS’s Proposal for New Remote Therapeutic Monitoring Codes under the 2022 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule

Aug 19, 2021

In the recent Medicare Physician Fee Schedule proposed rule for CY 2022, CMS has proposed adding a new category of reimbursable digital health services with new CPT codes classified as remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM). In this episode, Leah D’Aurora Richardson and Sarah Staples explain what RTM is, how it is different from remote physiologic monitoring (RPM), and the uncertainty regarding which practitioners will be able to furnish and bill for RTM services.
