Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 90970 covers

This code represents physician services related to end-stage renal disease for a patient age 20 or older during a period shorter than a full month. A nephrologist commonly reports it when the patient’s ESRD care begins or ends partway through the month, or when care shifts between providers. Services may occur in a dialysis facility, hospital, or other setting where the physician manages the patient’s ESRD care.

Report the code by day for the partial-month period, rather than selecting a monthly ESRD service code based on visit count. Documentation should support the patient’s age, dates of ESRD-related physician care, the partial-month service period, and the management performed. The service concerns physician ESRD care, not a dialysis treatment procedure such as a single dialysis evaluation. Medicare Physician Fee Schedule payment is based on the per-day service represented by this code.
