  1. CPT CODES FOR PHYSICAL THERAPY BILLING WHILE TREATING THE PATIENT’S PHYSICAL PAIN, YOU MIGHT OFTEN GET TRAPPED INTO THE MAINTENANCE OF THE CODING ACCURACY AS AN IMMENSE PAIN FOR YOURSELF. IN FACT, YOU MIGHT HAVE ENCOUNTERED SITUATIONS WHERE YOU SPEND MORE TIME HANDLING YOUR CLAIMS RATHER THAN MANAGING THE PATIENT’S PAIN. NO DOUBT, DELIVERING A PAIN- FREE TREATMENT TO THE PATIENTS IS YOUR FIRST NOBLE DUTY. BUT IT DOESN’T MEAN THAT CLAIMING THE MAXIMUM REIMBURSEMENT AMOUNT FROM THE PROVIDER COUNTS AS THE LAST THING. BOTH ARE EQUALLY IMPORTANT, AND THAT’S WHY WE WILL TALK ABOUT THE COMMON CPT CODES FOR PHYSICAL THERAPY BILLING SERVICES AND HOW TO MAXIMIZE THE CLAIMS OUT OF IT. https://www.247medicalbillingservices.com info@247medicalbillingservices.com info@247medicalbillingservices.com https://www.247medicalbillingservices.com

  2. • CODE 97110: THERAPEUTIC EXERCISE THIS CODE INCLUDES THE EXERCISES FOR STRENGTHENING, RANGE OF MOTION, ENDURANCE, AND FLEXIBILITY THAT ARE APPLICABLE TO SINGLE OR MULTIPLE BODY PARTS.

WHILE DOCUMENTING THIS CODE, YOU MUST INCLUDE ALL THE BODY PART/S TREATED, SPECIFYING THE MUSCLE AND/OR JOINTS, SPECIFIC EXERCISES PERFORMED, AND ALIKE. • CODE 97112: NEUROMUSCULAR RE-EDUCATION CPT CODE 97112 ACCOUNTS FOR ALL THE ACTIVITIES THAT FACILITATE RE-EDUCATION OF MOVEMENT, BALANCE, POSTURE, COORDINATION, AND PROPRIOCEPTION/KINESTHETIC SENSE. THIS CODE ALSO APPLIES TO ONE OR MULTIPLE BODY PARTS AND REQUIRES DIRECT CONTACT WITH A PATIENT. WHENEVER THE PROCEDURE EXCEEDS 15 MINUTES, THE DESCRIPTOR CAN REPORT THIS CPT CODE FOR EVERY 15-MINUTE INTERVAL. https://www.247medicalbillingservices.com info@247medicalbillingservices.com

  3. • CODE 97116: GAIT TRAINING THIS CODE IS USED FOR PROVIDING TRAINING TO ALL THOSE PATIENTS WHO HAVE IMPAIRED WALKING ABILITIES DUE TO MUSCULAR, NEUROLOGICAL, OR SKELETAL ABNORMALITIES. UNDER THIS CODE, EVERY 15 MINUTES OF TREATMENT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS ONE UNIT OF THE CODE.

THESE MANUAL THERAPY TECHNIQUES INCLUDE JOINT MANIPULATION AND MOBILIZATION, CONNECTIVE TISSUE MASSAGE, PASSIVE RANGE OF MOTION, MANUAL TRACTION, SOFT TISSUE MANIPULATION AND MOBILIZATION, AND THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE.
