| Code | Service | Share | Claims | Bene. records | Paid |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T1019 | Help at home with bathing, dressing and eating, billed per 15 minutesPersonal care services, per 15 minutes, not for an inpatient or resident of a hospital, nursing facility, icf/mr or imd, part of the individualized plan of treatment (code may not be used to identify services provided by home health aide or certified nurse assistant) | 100% | 4,545 | 270 | $800K |
Claims and beneficiary counts add up across code × month rows, so one patient seen every month counts many times. Rows with fewer than 12 claims are suppressed by HHS, so small lines can be missing.
