Billing & Coding: Understanding CPT Code 97110 Therapeutic Exercise

Welcome to your billing and coding weekly solutions by H.J. Ross Company where getting your bills paid is what we do best!

What is CPT Code 97110 Therapeutic Exercise?

CPT code 97110 is a therapeutic procedure, performed in either an active, active-assisted or passive approach, on one or more areas, each lasting 15 minutes.

Therapeutic exercises may be reasonable and medically necessary for loss or restriction of joint motion, strength, functional capacity or mobility resulting from a specific disease or injury.

Therapeutic exercise includes activities related to strengthening, endurance training, range of motion, and flexibility.

When billing and documenting for therapeutic exercise it is important to include the body part(s) treated, and the specific muscle(s) and/or joint(s).

Billing with incorrect chiropractic CPT codes can lead to claim rejections and delays in payments, which can have a devastating impact on generating revenue and keeping you in business.
