    We’re seeing a lot of talk about 5010 as the end of the year approaches. Curious to learn more, we took it to our resident experts, Kayla Milburn and Paul Schwartz, for all the answers.

    Lindsay: Kayla and Paul, thanks for taking time today to tell us about 5010. Can you tell me what physical therapists should know about 5010?
     
    Paul: Not much. This change is really important for insurance companies and billing companies. Any physical therapist that uses an in-house software such as Kareo, or outsources their billing doesn’t have much to worry about. CMS has more resources and AMA has a toolkit to get started with 5010.
     
    “Practices that conduct one or more of the HIPAA transactions electronically, such as submitting a claim or checking a patient’s eligibility, or rely on a billing service or clearinghouse to do this on their behalf, are affected by this change.” - American Medical Association
