Global Days and calculation

Created by Kevin Schmidt - HCPro, Modified on Tue, 17 Jun at 4:24 PM by Kevin Schmidt - HCPro

Easily know the last calendar date of a code’s restricted global billing period by simply choosing the date of service in the Global Period Calculator on any CPT code detail page. Find the Global Period Calculator on the right side of the Code Detail page and click the date field to choose the date of service. The Global Period Calculator reads the code’s specific global period as set by Medicare (e.g., 30 days) and uses it to calculate that many calendar days from the date you have entered.


The Global Days section also notes the number of global days for codes, when applicable, and the global split percentage for pre-, intra-, and post-procedure work.
