Changes to Evaluation & Management Services by the AMA via CPT codes and guidelines in the past 5 years have been extensive. In that same timeframe, CMS/Medicare had completely different definitions of these services in trying to slowly convert to a new definition of Split Shared. 

Fortunately, in 2025, CMS/Medicare and CPT reached an agreement on the definition of Split Shared visits. CMS/Medicare specifies in its manuals that it adheres to CPT’s definition of these services. However, CMS/Medicare does provide some additional information and guidance. 

This webinar will break down these changes, clarify documentation and compliance requirements, and provide insights into how physicians and Non-Physician Practitioners (NPPs) can effectively implement the updated guidelines for Split Shared visits.

Webinar Objectives

Understanding the role of each practitioner (physician and NPP) in a split shared service is crucial.  Documentation from both parties during a Split Shared visit is essential in demonstrating that the requirements for these services have been fulfilled. Both of these topics will be explored in detail.
