APCM Is Not a Gym Membership


Listen Later

A recurring question in Advanced Primary Care Management (APCM) is whether practices can bill every month for a patient once they’re enrolled — even if no services were provided during that month.

Terry’s stance is clear: no. APCM isn’t a subscription model or a gym membership. These are medically necessary services tied to ongoing clinical need, and billing without documented work invites unnecessary audit risk.

On today’s CodeCast, Terry breaks down why monthly billing without services is problematic, how other consultants interpret the rules, and what practices should consider to stay compliant.
