HCPCS  codes  G2067- G2075, and G0137, cover  episodes  of care of 7 continuous  days and cannot  be billed  for the same patient more than once per 7 continuous day period.   HCPCS  codes  G2076- G2080 are add-on codes  that are billed  in addition to one of the base bundle  codes (Rev. 12418; Issued: 12 -21-23; Effective: 01 -01-24; Implementation: 01 -24-24) described by HCPCS codes G2067- G2075.   Consistent  with FDA  labeling, HCPCS  codes  G2069 and G2073 should not be used more  than once every  4 weeks and HCPCS codes G2070 and G2072 should not be used more than once every 6 months. HCPCS  codes  G2078 and G2079 may be billed  in multiple  units, up to 3 in one month (in addition to the base bundle code).  HCPCS  codes  G2215 and G2216 are limited  to being billed  once  every  30 days, however, exceptions  to this limit are allowed in the case where the beneficiary overdoses and uses the initial supply of naloxone dispensed by the OTP to the extent that it is medically reasonable and necessary to furnish additional naloxone. If an additional supply of naloxone is needed within 30 days of the original supply being provided, OTPs must document in the medical record the reason for the exception.  HCPCS  code  G2216 (injectable  naloxone)  is contractor -priced for  CY 2021.  Patients may be appropriately given OUD services at more than one OTP within a 7 day period in certain limited  clinical  situations, such as for guest  dosing or when  a patient  transfers  care between  OTPs.  Each  of the  involved OTPs  may bill the appropriate  HCPCS  codes  for the services  provided to the patient,  but both OTPs must maintain sufficient medical record documentation to reflect the clinical situation and services provided.   In instances in which a patient is switching from one drug to another, the OTP should only bill for one code describing a weekly  bundled payment  for that week  and should determine  which  code  to bill based on which drug was furnished for the majority of the week.

40.1 - Place of Service  (Rev. 4524: Issued; 02- 14-20: Effective; 01 -01-20: Implementation: 03 -16-20)  Claims for OTP services should use Place of Service code 58 (Non -residential Opioid Treatment Facility  a location that provides treatment for OUD on an ambulatory basis. Services include methadone and other forms of MAT).   40.2 - Date of Service  (Rev. 12418; Issued: 12- 21-23; Effective: 01 -01-24; Implementation: 01- 24-24)  For the codes that describe a weekly bundle (HCPCS codes G2067- G2075) as well as HCPCS code G0137, one week is defined as 7 contiguous  days. OTPs  may  choose  to apply a standard billing  cycle by setting  a particular  day of the  week to begin all episodes of care.  In this case, the date of service would be the first day of the OTPs billing cycle. If a beneficiary starts treatment at the OTP on a day that is in the middle of the OTPs standard weekly billing cycle, the OTP may still bill the applicable code for that episode of care provided that the threshold to bill for the code has been met.  Alternatively, OTPs may choose to adopt weekly billing cycles that vary across patients. Under this approach,  the initial date of  service will depend  upon the day of the week  when  the patient  was first  admitted to the program or when Medicare billing began. Therefore, under this approach of adopting weekly billing cycles that vary across patients, when a patient is beginning treatment or re -starting treatment after a break  in treatment, the date of service would reflect the first day the patient was seen and the date of service for subsequent consecutive episodes of care would be the first day after the previous 7- day period ends.  For the codes describing add- on services (HCPCS codes G2076- G2080, and G0137), the date of service should reflect the  date that service was furnished;  however, if the OTP  has chosen  to apply a standard weekly  billing  cycle, the date of service for codes describing add -on services may be the same as the first day in the weekly billing cycle.

40.3 - Prescribing Individuals  (Rev. 4524: Issued; 02- 14-20: Effective; 01 -01-20: Implementation: 03 -16-20)  OTPs should list the prescribing or medication ordering physicians or other eligible professionals National Provider Identifier in Field 17 (the ordering/referring/other field) of the Form CMS 1500 (Health Insurance Claim Form; 0938 1197) or the digital equivalent thereof.   50  Institutional Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) Services   A/B MAC (A)  (Rev. 10521; Issued: 12- 16-20; Effective: 01 -01-21; Implementation: 01 -04-21)   Medicare Part B coverage is available for outpatient Opioid Treatment Program services provided by hospitals, CAHs, and Free -Standing Opioid Treatment Program facilities.   50.1  Special Opioid Treatment Program Billing Requirements for Hospitals, Critical Access Hospitals, and Free -Standing Opioid Treatment Program Facilities  (Rev. 10521; Issued: 12- 16-20; Effective: 01 -01-21; Implementation: 01 -04-21)   Medicare Part B coverage is available for hospital outpatient Opioid Treatment Program services.
