What 59426 covers

CPT 59426 represents antepartum care furnished over seven or more prenatal visits, such as routine prenatal assessment, pregnancy monitoring, and counseling. Obstetricians, family physicians, and other clinicians providing maternity care may furnish these services in an office or clinic. The code covers the prenatal-care portion of the pregnancy; it does not include delivery or postpartum care. It may be relevant when care ends with a transfer before delivery or when another clinician handles the delivery and postpartum period.

Select 59426 based on the number of antepartum visits represented by the course of care: seven or more visits qualify, while four through six visits are reported with 59425. Keep documentation showing the dates and count of visits and the prenatal services furnished. Do not separately report the routine prenatal visits represented by this care package. CMS identifies this as a maternity service outside the usual global-surgery-period framework; it is not paid under the standard surgical global-period approach.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
