CPT Knowledgebase - Dec 23, 2013
The coding guidelines for Psychiatric Diagnostic Procedures indicate the following: Codes 90791, 90792 are used for the diagnostic assessment(s) or reassessment(s), if required, and do not include psychotherapeutic services. Psychotherapy services, including for crisis, may not be reported on the same day. Does this mean that a patients family psychotherapy session reported with code 90846, Family psychotherapy (without the patient present), or code 90847, Family psychotherapy (conjoint psychotherapy) (with patient present), could not be billed on the same day as a psychiatric diagnostic evaluation (90791, 90792), even if the family psychotherapy was a separate session?
