CPT code 99368: Team conference, without patient2026 Medicare rate & RVUs in Georgia

CMS doesn’t publish an office rate for 99368 in Georgia.

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

What 99368 covers

This service represents an interdisciplinary conference in which health care professionals discuss a patient’s care while the patient and family are absent. A nonphysician qualified health care professional reports it for their participation. The discussion may involve care planning and coordination among the professionals involved in the patient’s treatment; it is distinct from a conference attended by the patient or family and from one reported for a physician’s participation.

The service is timed at 30 minutes or more. Medicare assigns this code bundled status B: Medicare does not pay it separately, and its payment is included in payment for other services. The code has no separate Medicare payment under the physician fee schedule. Document the conference, its participants, the patient-care discussion, and the time spent to support code selection.
