Procedure Code and Fee Schedule Updates

As part of our commitment to help inform our independently contracted providers of certain developments, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois (BCBSIL) has designated a specific section in the Blue Review to notify you of any significant changes to the physician fee schedules. It’s important to review this section each month.

Effective Sept. 1, 2020, the following Current Procedural Terminology (CPT®) code ranges were updated: 90630-90756 and Q2034-Q2039. Please note that not all CPT codes in these ranges were updated.

Effective Dec. 1, 2020, the following CPT codes will be updated: J1558, J9119, J9204, J9210, J9269 and J9313.

The information above is not intended to be an exhaustive listing of all the changes. Annual and quarterly fee schedule updates may also be requested by using the Fee Schedule Request Form. Specific code changes that are listed above may also be obtained by downloading the Fee Schedule Request Form and specifically requesting the updates on the codes listed in the Blue Review. The form is available on the Forms page on our Provider website.
