RHC: Winter Storm Fern EP Activation Template Library 290-O

We have added an EP activation template for Winter Storm Fern. You can use this form to document all of your actions for preparing for and responding to the storm. The template will guide you through what you should document and what to attach to the form as evidence of EP activation. Remember that an emergency activation when properly documented counts as one of your EP testing activities. It is the silver lining of a very bad winter storm. Be safe and be warm.

RHC Telehealth Change: Patient Homes are Originating Sites through 2026

CMS has clarified that patients may be in their homes as a qualified originating site for medical telehealth through December 31, 2026. This changes an earlier determination that the home location would not qualify after January 30, 2026. Now, the RHC patient may be in their own home. The RHC provider is located either in the RHC or at their personal residence. These services are reported with G2025 with NO CG modifier. The reimbursement is $97.53. Mental telehealth continues to be a permanent RHC encounter and is reported with the appropriate mental health service CPT, the CG modifier and the appropriate modifier for the modality used. Contact your RHC consultant for more details.
