The American Medical Association (AMA) introduced 17 new CPT® codes for telemedicine E/M services in 2025. These codes reflect the growing demand for both audio-video and audio-only care, ensuring providers can accurately document and report virtual encounters.
These updates aim to streamline the reporting of evaluation and management (E/M) services delivered via telehealth—whether through synchronous audio-video or audio-only communication.
Documentation errors, whether undercoding or overcoding, can make you a target for payers who are becoming more proactive in spotting inconsistencies and recouping payments. A single bad audit can lead to more extensive investigations.
Interventional radiology E/M coding is becoming increasingly nuanced, making expertise in the latest guidelines essential for accurate reimbursement and compliance.
