CPT® Code 99607

Add-On Code

Medication therapy management service(s) provided by a pharmacist, individual, face-to-face with patient, with assessment and intervention if provided; each additional 15 minutes (List separately in addition to code for primary service)

The CPT® Code 99607 refers to a specific service provided by a pharmacist, which is known as medication therapy management (MTM). This service is delivered in a face-to-face setting with the patient, allowing for a personalized approach to medication management. During this interaction, the pharmacist conducts a thorough assessment of the patient's medication regimen, which includes both prescription and over-the-counter medications. The primary goal of this service is to identify any potential drug interactions, side effects, or other medication-related problems that may affect the patient's health. The pharmacist then works to optimize the patient's drug therapy, making necessary adjustments to enhance therapeutic outcomes. This may involve recommending changes to the medication regimen, providing education on proper medication use, and encouraging adherence to the prescribed treatment plan. It is important to note that this code is used to bill for each additional 15 minutes of MTM services provided, following the initial service codes 99605 for new patients and 99606 for established patients.
