Q: What constitutes a care team conference? What code(s) can I use to bill for a care-team conference?

A: A care-team conference constitutes a face-to-face or telephonic conversation between the primary provider (physician or APP if acting as primary provider) and one or more care-team members regarding a patient status. A team conference does not include the patient. The code used to bill for a care team conference is G9007.

Q: Can the G9007 be billed if two team members are discussing a potential patient for care management prior to the patient coming onto service, or can this only occur with the physician?

A: No, this is a physician/provider code. It can only be billed when discussing with the physician/APP.

Q: Can the G9007 be billed the same day as the primary care office visit?

A: Yes.
