CPT is a registered trademark of the American Medical Occupational Therapy Evaluation Coding Overview On January 1, 2017, new codes will go into effect for Occupational Therapy evaluations. The American Medical Association (AMA) Common Procedural Terminology (CPT ) 2017 manual will list three levels of Occupational thera-py Evaluation and one level of re- Evaluation under the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) section of the manual (or codebook). The previous codes have been redefined and assigned new numbers with new requirements. To use the correct code in the new system, Occupational therapists will have to attend to new criteria that distinguish differing levels of Evaluation . This document is intended to provide an Overview of the codes to assist occupation-al therapists with making correct Coding choices that reflect modern Occupational Therapy practice.
The definition follows the approach to evaluation in the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process (3rd ed.; AOTA, 2014). The Framework will be referenced throughout this document, as it provides import-ant direction for conducting appropriate, best-practice evaluations.
