</p>
<h2>Coding</h2>
<p>
The CPT Editorial Panel ruled to include OMT codes starting in the 1994
edition of the CPT Manual. (All{" "}
<em>Physicians Current Procedural Terminology [CPT] </em>five-digit
numeric codes, descriptions, numeric modifiers, instructions,
guidelines, and other material are copyright American Medical
Association.)
</p>
<p>
Osteopathic manipulative treatment is a form of manual treatment applied
by a physician to eliminate or alleviate somatic dysfunction and related
disorders. This treatment may be accomplished by a variety of
techniques.
</p>
<p>
Body regions are defined as head, cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacrum,
lower extremity, upper extremity, pelvis, ribs, abdomen and viscera.
(Such regions are defined in ICD-9-CM codes 739.0-739.9. This
information should be shown on the claim form or in the physician
record.

The physician, insurance companies, Medicare, Medicaid, workers
compensation and all other third party reimbursement systems need to
know the following:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
These codes are to be used by physicians for osteopathic manipulative
treatments as of January 1, 1994. It is important that all carriers,
claims examiners and physicians be educated on the use of these codes
so that the present confusion of coding can be resolved.
</li>
<li>
These codes are separate and distinct from evaluation and management
codes, and should be billed separately.
</li>
<li>
These codes are to be used for inpatient and outpatient osteopathic
manipulative treatment services along with the appropriate evaluation
and management codes.
</li>
<li>
These codes define the body regions appropriately for use with
osteopathic manipulative treatments.
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Using The Codes</h2>
<p>
These patient vignettes are designed to give specific examples of the
types of services involved in the procedure codes for osteopathic
manipulative treatment. Examples featuring different specialist
physicians and surgeons are used in the examples to illustrate that any
physician may utilize all of the codes found below. The definitions of
body areas are found in the ICD-9 reference text under the codes 739.0
through 739.9.
</p>
<p>
After evaluating a patient and arriving at a diagnosis which includes
somatic dysfunction it is appropriate to utilize an evaluation and
management (E&amp;M) code to describe the evaluation and management
service. If the diagnosis includes somatic dysfunction, the physician
then utilizes one of the following procedure codes for describing the
service of rendering OMT to treat the dysfunction.{" "}
<em>
Note that these procedure codes do not include the service involved in
determining a diagnosis.
</em>
</p>
<p>
<strong>98925</strong> OMT to one to two body regions defined.
<br />A 39-year-old presents to the family practitioner with right ankle
pain following an injury. After the evaluation and assessment of the
patient the physician arrives at a diagnosis of (1) ankle sprain and (2)
somatic dysfunction of the right lower extremity. This is coded for by
utilizing an appropriate E&amp;M code. The use of 98925 involves the
treatment by the family practitioner utilizing application of
osteopathic manipulative treatment to the right lower extremity.
</p>
<p>
<strong>98926 </strong>OMT to three to four body regions defined.
<br />A 4-year-old female presents to her pediatrician with a fever,
cough, and sputum production. After the E&amp;M assessment and coding, a
diagnosis of (1) bronchitis and (2) somatic dysfunction of the cervical,
thoracic, rib and abdominal area is determined. The bronchitis is
treated with medications. The subsequent use of 98926 involves the
treatment by the pediatrician of the somatic dysfunction of the
cervical, thoracic, rib and abdominal regions utilizing osteopathic
manipulative treatment.
</p>
<p>
<strong>98927 </strong>OMT to five to six body regions defined.
<br />A 42-year-old male presents to the neurosurgeon with confusion and
pain in the neck and upper back and exacerbation of a previous history
of lumbar disc herniation with radiculitis following a motorcycle
accident. After E&amp;M assessment and coding, the diagnosis is that of
(1) closed head injury and (2) somatic dysfunction of the head,
cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral and rib region. The subsequent use of
98927 involves the treatment by the neurosurgeon of the somatic
dysfunction of the head, cervical, lumbar, sacral and rib regions
utilizing osteopathic manipulative treatment.
</p>
<p>
<strong>98928 </strong>OMT to seven to eight body regions defined.
<br />
Following cholecystectomy, a 32-year-old female develops abdominal pain
and distention. After E&amp;M assessment and coding, the attending
physician and surgeon arrives at a diagnosis of (1 ) post-operative
ileus and (2) somatic dysfunction of the head, cervical, thoracic,
lumbar, sacral, ribs and abdominal/visceral regions. The subsequent use
of 98928 involves the treatment by the surgeon of the somatic
dysfunction of the head, cervical, thoracic, sacral, rib, and
abdominal/visceral regions utilizing osteopathic manipulative treatment.
</p>
<p>
<strong>98929 </strong>OMT to nine to ten body regions defined.
<br />A 29-year-old female complains of generalized aching, low back
pain and cephalgia following a vaginal delivery. After assessment of the
patient using an E&amp;M code the family practitioner arrives at a
diagnosis of (1 ) cephalgia and (2) post-obstetric somatic dysfunction
of the head, cervical, thoracic, rib cage, lumbar, sacral, pelvic, and
upper and lower extremity regions. The use of 98929 then involves the
application by the family practitioner of osteopathic manipulative
treatment to the head, cervical, thoracic, rib cage, lumbar, sacral,
pelvic abdominal upper and lower extremity areas.
</p>
<p>
Complete and easily understandable documentation for OMT is necessary to
ensure adequate third party comprehension of the procedures for
appropriate payment. Different forms of osteopathic documentation exist
and should be reviewed for appropriate application. Available sources
for information on terminology and codes include the Glossary of
Osteopathic Terminology as published by the AOA, and information in CPT,
HCPCS and ICD-9-CM.
</p>
<p>
A commonly used method of documentation for OMT is illustrated in the
use of the SOAP note. <strong>SOAP </strong>is an acronym for a format
of recording information found during a physician visit. It includes
Subjective complaints and histories from the patient; Objective findings
of the physicians exam and tests; Assessment or differential diagnosis
based on the first two; and Plan that is the course of treatment
designed by the physician.
</p>
<p>
Somatic dysfunction is a diagnosis utilized by osteopathic physicians to
code for disorders in the skeletal, arthrodial, myofascial and visceral
structures as well as related vascular, Iymphatic, and neural elements.
Palpatory findings may include, but are not limited to, tenderness,
asymmetry, range of motion abnormalities and tissue texture changes. A
more detailed list of terms and definitions can be found in the AOA
Glossary of Osteopathic Terminology.
</p>
<p>
In general, osteopathic manipulative techniques include, but are not
limited to, three broad categories: soft tissue techniques such as
stretch, gentle range of motion, and kneading; direct techniques such as
joint mobilization, thrust and muscle energy; and, indirect techniques
such as myofascial release, strain/counters/rain and cranial osteopathy.
A complete list of techniques and their descriptions can be found in the
AOA Glossary of Osteopathic Terminology.
