Increased Fee Schedule for Annual Wellness Visits Extended Through December 31, 2020

The Annual Wellness Visit (AWV) is an important part of a primary care provider’s management for a Medicare Advantage patient’s health. The AWV addresses gaps in care and enhances the quality of care you deliver.

In a bulletin on June 25, 2020,  Highmark communicated a fee schedule increase of $50 for completed AWVs through September 30, 2020. On September 23, 2020, we announced that this $50 increase will be extended for completed AWVs that occur through December 31, 2020.
