On January 1, 2017, CPT codes for physical and occupational therapy evaluation (97001, 97003) and re-evaluation (97002, 97004) will be deleted from the CPT listing on the Medicare Fee Schedule. Three new evaluation codes and one new reevaluation code for each discipline will replace them.

• The evaluation codes are divided into three levels: Low complexity, Moderate complexity and High complexity.
• Each level has specific components that must be included in the evaluation to meet their criteria.
• As a therapist you will need to understand the components for each level and select the appropriate code based on the presence of those components in your evaluation.
• And, of course, you will need to understand the potential compliance risks with code selection.
