T1019 Procedural Code: How and When to Use It...
This billing guidance note from Direct Care Training & Resource Center and Electronic Medical Services explains proper use of HCPCS code T1019 — Personal Care Services, billed per 15 minutes for individuals receiving ADL assistance in home or community settings. The note clarifies key billing characteristics, distinguishes T1019 from related codes including S5125, T1020, and S5130, and addresses its Michigan-specific relevance in both Medicaid home help program billing and No-Fault PIP contexts. Providers are reminded that thorough documentation of medical necessity and physician orders is critical when insurers challenge T1019 in favor of S5125.
