  • CPT

  • 249 New Codes

AMA said 43% of the editorial changes in the 2022 CPT code set are tied to new technology services described in Category III CPT codes and the expansion of the proprietary laboratory analyses code set.


AMA created five CPT codes to report therapeutic remote monitoring, 98975, 98976, 98977, 98980 and 98981
