PT vs. OT Evaluation Codes: What a Therapy Billing Team Should Check
Medicare’s therapy evaluation code families distinguish physical therapy from occupational therapy: commonly, 97161–97163 are PT evaluations and 97165–97167 are OT evaluations. Confirm the code, discipline, documentation, and payer-specific billing rules for the service; a code family alone does not establish coverage or payment.
