SUD/BH Code Change Tracker

Search a code or service area. See the current-year status, what changed recently, telehealth eligibility, and modifier requirements — drawn from public CMS sources.

Reference, not a coding decision. Payer policy at the point of claim is authoritative. CPT codes are owned by the AMA; their official descriptors are AMA-licensed and are not reproduced here. Verify every code against the current AMA CPT manual, the current CMS HCPCS file, and your specific payer's bulletins.

Curated seed last reviewed 2026-05-28 · Refresh cadence: CMS HCPCS quarterly, MPFS/Telehealth List annually

Runs the curated dataset in your browser. When a query has no curated match, the server may ask a model to draft a public-source summary. Treat that draft as a starting point only and verify it before billing.

Start with a common SUD or BH code

Or type any code (CPT or HCPCS) or service-area keyword in the search box above.

Where this data comes from

CMS HCPCS Quarterly Update — code additions, deletions, descriptor revisions, four times a year.
CMS MPFS Final Rule (annual) — code-level changes for the calendar year, including psychotherapy, BH integration, OBOT, IOP, and telehealth list revisions.
CMS Medicare Telehealth Services List — current permanent / provisional / temporary status per code, plus audio-only flags.
MLN Matters articles — operational bulletins on coverage and billing changes.
AMA CPT Professional Edition — authoritative source for CPT descriptors. We never reproduce them; we link to the manual.

Reference only — not coding, billing, legal, or compliance advice. Payer policy and coverage rules at the point of claim adjudication are authoritative; verify every code against the current AMA CPT Professional Edition, the current CMS HCPCS Level II file, the current MPFS Final Rule, your specific payer's bulletins, and your organization's compliance program. CPT codes are owned by the American Medical Association; their official descriptors are AMA-licensed and are not reproduced here. Where descriptor text is shown, it is the public-domain HCPCS Level II descriptor published by CMS. "What changed" summaries are original syntheses of publicly available CMS regulatory documents and are dated.
