Action Required

Action needed
Immediately: Billing team must review and update prior authorization requirements for all affected procedures listed in the policy. Update billing software with new CPT codes for ambulatory EEG (95700, 95705, 95708, 95717, 95719, 95721, 95723, 95725) and mechanical stretching device HCPCS codes (E1800, E1802, E1805, E1810, E1812). Stop billing CPT codes 20560 and 20561 for trigger point injections as they no longer support coverage criteria. Add COVID-19 diagnostic codes U07.1 and U07.2 to system. Contact CalViva Health at 1-888-893-1569 for questions about specific policy requirements.
