New age-adjusted telehealth fee codes for visits, counselling and consultations done by phone or video came into effect on June 1, 2020. While the new fee codes became active on June 1 and the old fee codes inactive, MSP was not able to update Teleplan until late yesterday (June 3).
As a result, some EMRs did not update in time for yesterday’s cutoff. If you (or your EMR vendor) manually entered the codes, your billings may be rejected. Please check your remittance carefully as you can resubmit rejected billings for the next remittance period.
Contact your EMR vendor or the Teleplan Support Centre for further information. You can read more about the new telehealth fees here.
