COVID-19 Related CPT Codes Approved For 2021

However, I can provide general information on CPT codes related to COVID-19 that were approved for 2021.

In 2021, the American Medical Association (AMA) has released several new or revised Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes related to COVID-19. Some of the notable ones include:

  • 86408: This code is used to report the measurement of antibodies to the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the blood. It can be used for both single and multiplex assays.
  • 99072: This code is used to report the additional supplies and staff time required to provide safe in-person services during the public health emergency, such as cleaning and disinfecting equipment and waiting areas.
  • 99091: This code is used to report remote patient monitoring services, which have become increasingly important during the pandemic.
  • 87635: This code is used to report antigen testing for SARS-CoV-2.

It is important to note that CPT codes are subject to change and it is best to consult with the latest guidelines from the AMA or your local healthcare authority.
