Intensive Outpatient Progrom (IOP) for Psychiatry
I am trying to determine how best to code for Intensive Outpatient Program. The department has worked with Physician contracting to have revenue code 905 paid for professional services. As a professional coder, I am not sure how best to approach the coding.
If we use CPT® codes, the group therapy code would be billed up to 3 times in one day causing issues with duplicate billing. Group therapy is a primary component in an Intensive Outpatient Program thus patients are involved in multiple group therapy sessions with different topics and in some cases different providers.
