Medicare’s 2025 Plan to Boost Digital Mental Health Treatments with New Payment Codes

Medicare is set to introduce new payment codes for digital mental health therapystarting in 2025. The proposal by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid services aims to address the lack of consistent payment pathways for digital therapeutics. While this move could enhance the adoption of these technologies, it will initially apply to FDA-approved products. 

The initiative could influence other insurers’ coverage decisions and potentially expand access to digital mental health treatments.
