United Healthcare Community Plan of New York Adds CPT Code 82652 to Non-Covered List
The UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of New York will no longer cover CPT® code 82652, which corresponds to Vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxy testing. This follows the policies established by New York State Medicaid since this code will not be covered through Medicaid services. Providers should note that all claims submitted for services using this code on or after November 1 will be automatically denied.
This addition to the non-covered list means Vitamin D testing for Medicaid recipients who are enrolled in New York in the UnitedHealthcare Community Plan will not be covered. Providers and facilities should change their billing habits and inform patients appropriately regarding this change.
