The 2024 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, effective January 1, 2024, introduces Medicare payments for Community Health Integration (CHI) services provided by certified or trained community health workers (CHWs) under the supervision of a Medicare-billing practitioner. These services address social determinants of health (SDOH) that impact a patient’s treatment plan. CHWs must be certified or trained according to state laws, and services can be delivered after an initial assessment by a billing practitioner. Payment rates for CHI services vary by region, with no limit on service frequency.
