ISSUED: (2/27/2014)
Beginning August 2, 2013 Novitas Solutions incorrectly denied Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes 76937 and 76942 when performed by a Physician Assistant (PA) or Nurse Practitioner (NP) in Jurisdiction H States. We have updated our processing system to allow payment for these two codes as of February 28, 2014. A mass adjustment project is being initiated to automatically adjust claims that may have been denied in error. No provider action is necessary to request adjustment of services previously denied.
