Can Medicare patients pay out of pocket for telehealth services?
Right now today, yes.
What about an e-visit ?
I am not sure what you are asking?
Thanks for all the great webinars and info. Can modifier 95 be appended to cpt codes on a ub04 claim if that is the only modifier approved by the payor or is that modifier specific to private practice? This payor confirmed coverage for telehealth for facility but requires a modifier 95.
