Advocacy Win: Anthem Reverses Time In and Out Reimbursement Policy

September 2025

We are sharing the good news that Anthem has updated its reimbursement policy so physical therapists are no longer required to document start and stop times for each CPT code.

This change is a result of APTA advocacy and the powerful voices of members who joined in challenging this burdensome requirement. Together we're challenging unreasonable billing policies and keeping the focus where it belongs - on patient care.

Thank you for all your efforts.
