The 2020 CPT® Codes are now available for download. Now is the perfect time to ensure your practice is covered.
The American Medical Association (AMA) requires purchase of the 2020 code set version, regardless of whether you secure them in an electronic format or if you choose to manually enter the codes into your NextGen® Enterprise database. Review the AMA License Terms definition of a “Provider,” located here.
Why purchase from us?
We make it easy! Here’s how we can help:
- Seamless import—Both CPT and HCPCS codes, as well as RVU mapping, are part of the NextGen® Coding Update File- enabling seamless importing of pre-formatted codes directly into your EHR/PM system.
- Less expensive—Purchasing CPT and HCPCS codes from NextGen Healthcare is less expensive than from the American Medical Association (AMA) directly because the AMA charges for both code sets.
- Auto-renew—Get ready for next year—this year! Purchase this year and you’ll auto-renew for 2021.
Important to note
If you have purchased or are renewing any of the following solutions, you will also need to have purchased the most current CPT Code set released by the AMA to be compliant with AMA rules:
NextGen® Medical Necessity Check (formerly known as Medical Necessity)
NextGen® In-Line Edits (formerly known as NextGen® Real-Time Edits [NextGen RTE])
NextGen® Charge Review Rules Engine (formerly known as NextGen® Rules Engine [RCx Rules])
These NextGen Healthcare solutions rely on mappings of the most current CPT codes. Therefore, the use of these solutions is predicated on the most current CPT codes being purchased and loaded in your system.
