We strongly recommend against billing multiple intake sessions using CPT code 90791.  This is because, most often, this CPT code would be inaccurate after the first session, constituting possible insurance fraud, but most likely a denial of the claim.

If a patient has seen a different therapist during that billing year, we advise you to bill the intake code for your first session regardless, as it is your first session with the patient.

If you see another family member, then feel free to bill for the intake for that date of service as well.

Our general rule:  only one intake session, the first session, per patient.
