This instruction removes the requirement for providers to report the total number of therapy visits using value code 50 ? physical therapy, 51 ? occupational therapy, 52 ? speech therapy, and 53 ? cardiac rehab.
Effective October 1, 2010, providers are no longer required to submit any of the aforementioned value codes when billing for therapy services. The therapy claims processing manual is updated to remove this requirement.
