TL;DR

HCPCS Level II G2067 reads "Medication assisted treatment, methadone; weekly bundle including dispensing and/or administration, substance use counseling, individual and group therapy, and toxicology testing, if performed (provision of the services by a medicare-enrolled opioid treatment program)" in the October 2026 file; it dates from 2020. The physician fee schedule lists G2067 with status X (statutory exclusion: not a physician service under the fee schedule), so the PFS carries no national amount for it. Its OPPS status indicator is A, which the I/OCE table defines as "Services not paid under OPPS; paid under fee schedule or other payment system": Medicare pays G2067 under a fee schedule or payment system other than OPPS. MUE limits for G2067: practitioner 1 (MAI 2, Code Descriptor / CPT Instruction); hospital outpatient 1 (MAI 2, Code Descriptor / CPT Instruction). 1 active LCD and 1 billing and coding article list G2067 across 4 states: L39849 (Opioid Treatment Programs), A59718. HCPCS record: BETOS M5D (specialist - other); pricing indicator 13; type of service 1 (medical care). 6 other active codes open with "Medication assisted treatment"; related codes: G2068, G2069, G2073, G2074.

G2067 descriptor and code status

The October 2026 HCPCS Level II file describes G2067 as “Medication assisted treatment, methadone; weekly bundle including dispensing and/or administration, substance use counseling, individual and group therapy, and toxicology testing, if performed (provision of the services by a medicare-enrolled opioid treatment program)”. It sits in the G section (procedures and professional services, temporary), listed with the other G codes. Although searches often call it the "G2067 CPT code", G2067 is a HCPCS Level II code maintained by CMS, not an AMA CPT code; both go in the same procedure-code field on the claim.

Medicare payment for G2067

The physician fee schedule lists G2067 with status X (statutory exclusion: not a physician service under the fee schedule), so the PFS carries no national amount for it. Its OPPS status indicator is A, which the I/OCE table defines as "Services not paid under OPPS; paid under fee schedule or other payment system": Medicare pays G2067 under a fee schedule or payment system other than OPPS. The amounts below are national figures from the October 2026 CMS files; the contractor applies the locality, rural or state adjustment and the beneficiary's cost sharing.

Physician fee schedule (RVU26D)

Status X: statutory exclusion: not a physician service under the fee schedule. Global period XXX (global surgery concept does not apply); PC/TC indicator 9 (professional/technical concept does not apply).

Medically Unlikely Edits for G2067

MUE limits for G2067: practitioner 1 (MAI 2, Code Descriptor / CPT Instruction); hospital outpatient 1 (MAI 2, Code Descriptor / CPT Instruction). The practitioner MUE is a date-of-service policy edit: units above the limit deny even when split across lines, and appeals rarely succeed.

NCCI edits and add-on rules

No active practitioner PTP pair lists G2067 in v323r0.

Pair counts show exposure, not the answer for one claim. Check G2067 against a second code to see whether the pair bundles and whether a modifier can separate the services.
