Remote patient monitoring
About 99457: Remote physiologic monitoring management, first 20 minutes
Report remote physiologic monitoring treatment management after 20 minutes of monthly practitioner or clinical staff work, including live communication with the patient or caregiver.
This service involves reviewing remotely transmitted physiologic readings and managing the patient's care. Examples include blood pressure readings for hypertension, weight trends for heart failure, pulse oximetry for chronic lung disease, and connected glucose readings for diabetes. A physician, other qualified health care professional, or clinical staff working under the billing practitioner's direction reviews trends, discusses findings with the patient or caregiver, and considers treatment changes. Primary care and specialty practices commonly perform this work from an office or remote care-management setting.
Count qualifying management time across the calendar month. Report 99457 once when at least 20 minutes have been furnished, including at least one real-time, two-way communication with the patient or caregiver. Report add-on 99458 for each additional full 20 minutes. Records should identify the dates, time spent, personnel, readings reviewed, management actions, and interactive contact. Device supply, when supported, is reported separately from management time. CMS assigns substantially more practice expense to this service in an office than in a facility. Do not count the same minutes toward chronic care management or another timed service.

99457 billing questions
Does the 20 minutes have to happen in one sitting?
No. Qualifying minutes may accumulate across the calendar month, provided they reach 20 and include at least one interactive communication.
Can clinical staff perform the time, or only the physician?
Clinical staff time may count when the work is performed under the billing practitioner's direction. Document who performed the work and the time spent.
What counts as the required interactive communication?
It is a real-time, two-way exchange with the patient or caregiver, such as a phone or video conversation about the readings and care plan. Portal messages or texts alone do not meet that requirement.
How is time beyond the first 20 minutes reported?
Report add-on 99458 with 99457 for each additional full 20 minutes of qualifying management time in the calendar month.
Can this be reported in the same month as chronic care management?
Yes, when both services meet their requirements. Do not count the same minutes toward 99457 and chronic care management.
Can remote therapeutic monitoring management be billed with it?
Do not report RPM and remote therapeutic monitoring management for the same patient during the same period. Select the family that matches the monitored data and service.
