Enhance Your Reimbursement For Dry Needling
Billing 

• With more people opting for dry needling therapy,
  the complexity of the procedure is on the rise.
  This means the practices that offer dry needling
  need to understand how the codes and the billing
  work to ensure they get paid for their services.
• Till 2020, there was no specific CPT code for dry
  needling. Thereafter, the therapists started
  using CPT Code 97140 to get reimbursement for the
  services offered. Not only this, the dry needling
  CPT codes have undergone a change due to the
  changing rules and regulations, and there are
  specific CPT codes for dry needling billing to be
  aware of. The core reason would be the rejection
  or denial of the payments if unlisted CPT codes
  were used for the services.

Know about the New Codes for Dry Needling
Billing

• The dry needling procedure is often referred to
  as Trigger Point Needling. The American Physical
  Therapy Association (APTA) and American
  Chiropractic Association (ACA) joined hands in
  2009 to develop and get codes for dry needling
  services. The joint venture worked, and from
  January 1, 2020, the Centres for Medicare
  Medicaid Services (CMS) assigned active Common
  Procedural Technology (CPT) Codes to dry needling
  procedures.
• The new codes for dry-needling billing are as
  follows
• 20560 Needle Insertion(s) In this, the needles
  are inserted in one to two muscles without any
  injection(s)
• 20561 Needle Insertion(s) In this, the needles
  are inserted without injections in three or more
  muscles.

How to Get Paid for Dry Needling Billing?

• 1. The Knowledge of the State About the Practice
• Before you embark on providing dry needling
  service, you must check under the state practice
  act that it is legal to perform. It means
• The scope of dry needling must be within the
  practice of physical therapy in the state
• As a practitioner, you must have the training and
  educational qualifications that will meet the
  requirement to perform dry needling service.
• 2. Talk to the Payers
• According to the director of state government
  affairs of APTA, APTA encourages the dry needling
  practitioner to understand the insurance policy
  and their attitude towards Trigger Point
  needling. The onus is on the practice to ask the
  insurance company whether they will pay for the
  procedures.
