New! Billing Job Aid Available in User Guides and Info Section

Treating practitioners using the Colorado Medicaid eConsult platform can bill for interprofessional consultations using CPT code 99452, a benefit under Health First Colorado as of February 1, 2024. This code is applicable for claims-based reimbursement to PCMPs who submit Fee-For-Service claims to Health First Colorado.

Costs associated with services provided by eConsult visits through an FQHC/RHC are considered allowable costs for the cost report and will be included in the calculation of the reimbursement rate for a patient visit at an FQHC/RHC.

The interprofessional consult code applies when a PCMP (MD, DO, NP, PA) coordinates care through an eConsult. To bill successfully, providers must document patient consent (verbal or written) for each consultation, the reason for the eConsult, and maintain a record of the completed consultation in the patient’s medical chart.

The Colorado Medicaid eConsult platform supports these billing requirements by offering integrated tools that help providers track time spent, document patient consent, and generates a downloadable summary of the eConsult for inclusion in the medical record. These features make it easier for treating practitioners to meet compliance standards while ensuring continuity of care.

To assist providers further, a Billing Job Aid is available for active users to download from the User Guides and Info section on the Landing Page of the Platform: (https://www.coloradomedicaideconsult.com/)
