CPT® Code 0741T

Remote autonomous algorithm-based recommendation system for insulin dose calculation and titration; provision of software, data collection, transmission, and storage, each 30 days

The CPT® Code 0741T refers to a remote autonomous algorithm-based recommendation system specifically designed for insulin dose calculation and titration. This system is particularly beneficial for patients with poorly controlled diabetes who require multiple daily pen injections. The technology operates by utilizing an initial input of historical data, which includes time-stamped blood glucose readings and the amounts of insulin previously injected. This data is uploaded by the healthcare provider to the patient's smart device, allowing the system to generate real-time insulin dosage recommendations. The algorithm employs machine learning techniques to continuously assess the patient's glucose levels and predict the risk of hypoglycemia, thereby adjusting the recommended insulin doses automatically. The provision of this software, along with the necessary data collection, transmission, and storage, is billed for each 30-day period of use. It is important to note that the initial setup and patient education on how to utilize the system is reported separately under CPT® Code 0740T.
