Modifier and HCPCS Changes for July 2025

The following new and deleted National Level II modifiers and Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) are effective for dates of service on/after July 1, 2025.

In compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), CMS eliminated the 3-month grace period for discontinued codes in Change Request (CR) 3093 dated February 6, 2004. Effective for dates of services on/after January 1, 2010, there is no grace period for billing discontinued HCPCS codes.

Note: The inclusion of modifiers or codes on this web page do not necessarily indicate coverage. New modifiers and HCPCS identified as Durable Medical Equipment (DME) are not included in this listing.
