Resolved Homeopathic Services

[ViktoriyaR_63131]

As an auditor, how would you identify homeopathic services using data report? I'm working on payer's side and I was not able to find any CPT or ICD-10-CM codes, there is no specific place of service or modifiers that could be used on a claim. Looks like any provider could perform these services, but how would they bill them?

Homeopathic providers are non-traditional providers and many are not MDs. The CPT codes are generated by the AMA - American Medical Association. There is an organization that provides codes for non-traditional providers. Here is a bit more information about it if you would like to read into it: https://ushik.ahrq.gov/ViewItemDetails?system=mdr&itemKey=75730000 They are called ABC Codes or Advanced Billing Concept codes.
