Senior patients with chronic pain conditions have an extremely high rate of mental health issues associated with depression, addiction, cognitive decline, and suicide. The rate of these associated mental health issues among senior patients has been steadily & rapidly increasing.
The program allows physicians to comprehensively utilize these new services without using their staff and upfront investment. Behavior Health Integration professionals directly interact with these patients in a Medicare-compliant way, allowing physicians to provide more proactive care for these patients while significantly increasing the annual net income of the practice. CMS has recognized this disturbing trend and the need to proactively and regularly assess these risks within this patient group. As such, CMS introduced two new CPT codes since 2019 to help all physicians better serve these patients.
