Effective for DOS 4/15/25 and thereafter EmblemHealth (Medicaid LOB) will require extra CPT II codes on the global maternity claims.

The following codes need to be present on the claims:

1. 0500F (Initial Prenatal Visit)
2. 0502F (Subsequent Prenatal Visit) or
3. 0503F (Postpartum visit) for each corresponding visit provided to the patient within the obstetric global period being billed

These codes are NOT separately reimbursed- they are only for reporting purposes.

The reimbursement is included in the global code 59400.
