Modifier 95

Modifier 95 means a synchronous telehealth service was rendered via a real-time interactive audio and video system. It is a CPT modifier that CMS also recognizes. It is not a place of service code. Place of service 02 or 10 says where the patient was. The place of service lookup is at /place-of-service-codes.

Modifier 95

This site's modifier pages are HCPCS Level II modifiers from the CMS file. Modifier 95 is a CPT modifier, so its descriptor is not stored here.
