## The thresholds it uses

CoCM billing codes and their minute thresholds (CMS MLN909432, CPT time rule)

| Code | When | Time block | Reportable from |
|---|---|---|---|
| 99492 | First month of Collaborative Care | First 70 minutes | 36 minutes |
| 99493 | Each later month | First 60 minutes | 31 minutes |
| 99494 | Add-on to 99492 or 99493 | Each additional 30 minutes | 86 minutes in a first month, 76 in a later month (16 into each extra block) |
| G2214 | First or later month (Medicare) | First 30 minutes | 16 minutes; not with 99492, 99493 or 99494 in the same month |

Worked examples

| Month and minutes | Codes |
|---|---|
| First month, 15 minutes | None yet (G2214 starts at 16) |
| First month, 30 minutes | G2214 |

| First month, 100 minutes | 99492 + 99494 x1 |
| Later month, 30 minutes | G2214 |
| Later month, 31 minutes | 99493 |
| Later month, 76 minutes | 99493 + 99494 x1 |
| Later month, 106 minutes | 99493 + 99494 x2 |

Amounts shown are 2026 CMS Physician Fee Schedule national non-facility amounts (RVU26D): 99492 $160.32, 99493 $144.96, 99494 $61.46, G2214 $60.79. National average, varies by locality and payer.
