They are insisting there is a code for therapy evals – and I can find none. There are CPT codes for evals but not HPPS

We have had trouble billing therapy to UCARE in general as they have misunderstood units (what we bill) and visits (what they are paying). They have told us in the past this
is a system issue on their part. It has been a struggle for us to receive correct payments timely.

Has anyone else had trouble with UCARE denying therapy evaluations for the wrong code when you are billing the G codes?
