- Fusion and thera-LINK are both companies under Ensora Health, our parent company. This means we were able to access their resources and start an integration a lot faster than if we had partnered with another company.

- What payers reimburse for teletherapy?
- Unfortunately, payer reimbursement varies greatly across states and services. So even though a payer may reimburse for services in one state, it doesn’t mean that the same payer will reimburse in another state. You’ll want to check with your state’s regulations and then verify with your payers that your services will be reimbursed. Check out our Resources for Teletherapy page for more information. Policies have been developing and changing almost daily due to COVID-19. The Center for Connected Health Policy is striving to provide up-to-date information about these developments and changes. We encourage you to check out their resources as well, including their fact sheets.

- What modifier do I use?
- Submit claims for telehealth services using the appropriate CPT or HCPCS code for the professional service, along with the telehealth modifier identified by the payer. Common modifiers are 95 or GT, via interactive audio and video telecommunications systems (for example,97530 GT/95). However, some payers are also using GQ and/or CR. Most payers are using the 95 modifier code, but you should always confirm with the payer.
