Question:
What are the similarities and differences between 98975 and 98984 and RPM codes?
Answer:
Like RPM, codes 98975 and 98984 are not reported if cumulative monitoring is fewer than two days in a 30-day period. Unlike RPM, data can be self-reported by the patient to the practitioner as opposed to requiring automatic transmission by the device.
