Why This Matters

A therapist sees a general manual reference to GT/POS 02 and a provider notice discussing phone/video, and cannot tell which current rule applies to the service.

What to Know First

Use the current provider-type manual, General Information manual, fee schedule, and telehealth notice together; document modality, consent, locations, and clinical appropriateness, and verify exact modifier/POS rules on publication day.

What to Verify Before You Act

• Montana’s telehealth provider notice says qualified providers may furnish medically necessary and clinically appropriate covered services through live video or telephone when the applicable manual permits; verify current policy.

Practical Workflow

1. TL;DR: verify the exact current service rule before choosing a modifier/POS.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Treating old MPATH, MATH, ICAP, Passport, PCMT, or MTHCS references as interchangeable without checking the current Montana source.

• Assuming a portal login, provider enrollment, provider linking, claim route, or future affiliation is complete just because one related task was approved.

• Sharing owner credentials with a biller or staff member instead of using supported user access and offboarding controls.

• Skipping eligibility, authorization, provider-record, and remittance checks before treating the workflow as payer-ready.

Where Bomi Fits

Bomi can translate current telehealth rules into EHR and claim edits, then monitor denials when policy changes.

For practice owners, the practical goal is simple: the provider record, portal users, eligibility workflow, authorization process, claim route, and remittance workflow should all match the way the practice actually operates.
