PPACA And CPT Code 96103 The Affordable Care Act will provide one of the largest expansions of mental health and substance use disorder coverage in a generation. Beginning in 2014 under the law, all new small group and individual market plans will be required to cover ten Essential Health Benefit categories, including mental health and substance use disorder services, and will be required to cover them at parity with medical and surgical benefits. * The Affordable Care Act and its implementing regulations, building on the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, will expand coverage of mental health and substance use disorder benefits and federal parity protections in three distinct ways: (1) by including mental health and substance use disorder benefits in the Essential Health Benefits; (2) by applying federal parity protections to mental health and substance use disorder benefits in the individual and small group markets; and (3) by providing more Americans with access to quality health care that includes coverage for mental health and substance use disorder services. * The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) entitles all Medicare beneficiaries to an Initial Preventive Physician Exam (IPPE) and subsequent annual wellness visit (AWV) as of January 1, 2011. Fortunately, health professionals can choose our validated and electronic test to screen for Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, and PTSD all in one test with the Clinician Group’s My Mind Lab™ Assessment. *US Department of Health & Human Services

The primary compliant that a patient provides as a reason for visiting a specialist or that another physician has previously recognized as the justification why a "Specialist" is required to address the condition or disease state of a patient; in most cases, these conditions, diseases states, and/or treatment paths can be directly or indirectly linked to patients mental status. Insurance companies recognize this fact and in most situations have not challenged reimbursement under CPT Code 96103; due to the fact that, "Specialists" focus and are trained as experts in specific medical disciplines, and the treatment of the various "specific" diseases or conditions can be justified due to a variety of circumstances linked to pain, medication, recovery time, inability to perform normal daily activities, therapy, etc. Primary Care Physicians-Due to the fact that "primary care" physicians treat a broad range of conditions and diseases Medical Insurance Companies require that a "Primary Care" physician establish "Medical Necessity" prior to a patient being screened with a device that qualifies for reimbursement under CPT Code 96103.
