A new code covered in ASCO’s Care Management and SDOH G Comparison resource is G0136, established by Medicare this year to capture the administration of a Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) Risk Assessment tool. G0136 accounts for 5-15 minutes of administering the tool, and time may also contribute to other navigational services as indicated by Medicare.
Many practices may be utilizing a tool during navigational services, and this code now allows the assessment to be reported for reimbursement. It's important to note the risk assessment tool used must be a standardized, evidence-based tool.
