Towards the end of each year, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) releases its final Physician Fee Schedule, updating reimbursement policies and rates for the coming year. This year, there were a few notable changes for virtual care and chronic disease management: the introduction of Advanced Primary Care Management (APCM) Codes, and the elimination of G0511 for FQHCs and RHCs in favor of the CPT codes used by other fee-for-service providers.

Below is an overview of the new average national reimbursement amounts for 2025 for Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM), Chronic Care Management (CCM), and APCM. The codes and amounts for specific localities can be found with the Physician Fee Schedule search tool.  

All amounts below are Per Patient Per Month unless otherwise indicated.

NEW Advanced Primary Care Management Codes and Amounts

New in 2025, CMS introduced APCM codes, which consolidates elements of CCM, Principal Care Management (PCM), and other care management activities into a streamlined billing approach, eliminates the time-based component of CCM, and enables risk stratification.

APCM Codes Include:

Code: G0556
Description: APCM for patients with 1 or more chronic condition
Amount: $15.20

Code: G0557
Description: APCM for patients with multiple chronic conditions
Amount: $48.84

Code: G0558
Description: APCM for QMB enrollees with multiple chronic conditions, addressing higher complexity due to SDoH
