As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, we have seen a huge increase in telemedicine availability of reimbursement codes and providers’ adoption in the US. There is a universe of RPM-related codes beyond CPT codes 99091, 99453, 9454, 94557, and 99458. There are additional, more specific codes available for billing that allow remote monitoring (for example, CPT code 95250 for continuous glucose monitoring and CPT codes 99473 and 99474 for self-measured blood pressure monitoring).

How and when to deploy each of these? How are hospitals and surgeries implementing AMA’s new telehealth CPT codes? Are the incentives captured by these CPT codes sufficient to motivate  HCPs to use remote monitoring and digital health tools?
