Procedure Code and Fee Schedule Updates

Oct. 1, 2024

On Jan. 1, 2025, we’ll implement Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) and Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System procedure code additions, deletions and revisions. Please note that deleted codes will not be accepted for payment for dates of service on or after Jan. 1, 2025.

The information above is not intended to be an exhaustive listing of all changes. For more information on the above changes, use the Fee Schedule Request Form on our forms page and specifically request the updates on the codes listed in Blue Review. You may request annual and quarterly fee schedule updates using this form. 

Professional providers participating in our Preferred Provider Option and Blue Choice PPOSM networks may use the Fee Schedule Listing tool on Availity® Essentials to submit electronic requests and receive the contracted price allowance for specific codes.

We’ll continue to notify you of any significant changes to the physician fee schedules in Blue Review.
