    Ophthalmology coverage and coding checkpoints

    These checkpoints summarize published CMS guidance for ophthalmology claims. The payer’s policy and the rule in effect for the date of service always apply.

    Routine eye exams are excluded

    Medicare excludes eyeglasses, contact lenses, and eye examinations done to prescribe, fit, or change them. This exclusion is why a routine vision exam is not billed as a covered medical eye service.

    CMS source

    Eye disease exception to exclusion

    The eyeglass and refraction exclusions do not reach physician services performed in conjunction with an eye disease, such as glaucoma or cataracts, so a medically driven eye visit is assessed differently.

    CMS source

    Refractions are never separately covered

    Medicare excludes eye refractions whichever practitioner performs them and whatever the reason. Refraction should not be expected to be a covered add-on to a medical eye visit.

    CMS source

    Glaucoma screening eligibility groups

    Medicare provides annual glaucoma screening coverage only for defined high-risk categories, which include individuals with diabetes mellitus and those with a family history of glaucoma.

    CMS source

    What counts as glaucoma screening

    Medicare defines glaucoma screening as a dilated eye examination with an intraocular pressure measurement, plus either direct ophthalmoscopy or a slit-lamp biomicroscopic examination. It is billed with G0117 or G0118.

    CMS source

    Conventional IOL covered with cataract surgery

    Medicare covers a conventional intraocular lens when it is implanted during cataract surgery, along with the facility and physician services and supplies needed to insert it.

        Frequently Asked Questions

        What is ophthalmology medical billing?

        Ophthalmology medical billing involves submitting claims for eye exams, diagnostics, and surgical procedures using ophthalmology CPT codes and ICD-10 diagnosis codes.

        What is the taxonomy code for ophthalmology?

        The standard taxonomy code for ophthalmology is 207W00000X.

        Does Medicare cover ophthalmology services?

        Medicare covers medically necessary ophthalmology services but does not cover routine vision exams.

        What CPT codes are commonly used in ophthalmology?

        Ophthalmology CPT codes include office visits, diagnostic testing, refraction, laser procedures, and surgical codes.

        Can ophthalmology billing be outsourced to India?

        Yes. Many U.S. ophthalmology practices outsource billing to India to improve efficiency and reduce costs.

        Does Medicare pay separately for the conventional IOL in an ASC?

        No. Medicare continues to bundle payment for the conventional IOL portion with the facility procedure payment for ambulatory surgical centers and hospital outpatient departments.

        Are glasses after cataract surgery ever covered?

        Yes, in a limited way. The exclusion for eyeglasses does not apply to postsurgical prosthetic lenses used during convalescence from eye surgery in which the lens was removed.

        When are complex cataract extraction codes supported?

        Medicare says the complex cataract extraction codes 66982, 66987, and 66989 are reasonable and necessary when devices or techniques not generally used in routine cataract surgery are used.
