CPT codes for first visit

Hi everyone,

 

I'm new to insurance billing - in fact I don't bill to insurance but

instead give my patients a receipt that they can send to their own

insurance company.

 

I have a patient who is having trouble claiming my first visit

because the CPT code I used was not specific enough to acupuncture.

 

What do those of you who bill to insurance use as your CPT code for

the first visit? I have the codes for " initial 15 minutes "

and " additional 15 minutes " for acupuncture, but this does not cover

the hour I spend at the initial office visit. Any ideas? I know most

insurance companies limit the number of codes they allow you to bill

for in any one treatment.

 

Any advice would be much appreciated.

 

Thank you!

Nadia
