TCM/CCM Pocket Reference Cards

These quick reference cards clarify Medicare’s billing policies for two new sources of revenue: Chronic Care Management (CCM) services and Transitional Care Management (TCM) services. The CCM services are particularly beneficial to primary care practices and physician specialties that see patients with chronic problems, such as cardiology, endocrinology, oncology, pulmonology, and rheumatology. CCM offers reimbursement for non-face-to-face work performed on a monthly basis. TCM services are an opportunity for physicians who manage patients’ transition from inpatient to outpatient settings, and reimburse both face-to-face and non-face-to-face work. These services are not widely understood or billed, but these quick reference cards will help practices confidently capture revenue for the work they do. Dimensions: 5.5" x 3.75"
