Remote patient monitoring coding reforms tabled again
Earlier this month, an American Medical Association-anointed panel was set to consider proposed changes that would have simplified and broadened applicability of billing codes governing wearables and other devices doctors can use to monitor patients outside the clinic. But it didn’t happen because the revisions were pulled from the agenda of CPT Editorial Panel‘s periodic meeting about a week before the meeting. This happened once before in September 2022.
