Standard billing codes apply to tele-mental health visits. Additionally, tele-mental health services must be reported with Place of Service 02-Telehealth and the GT modifier. See Telemedicine Services Database within MSA 20-13 bulletin for codes, modifiers, descriptions and fees.
If “home” is the originating site, tele-mental health services are not eligible to bill the additional facility fee
