If the practice you assumed has provided the requisite care to the patient (see question 3 in this section) you may bill the CDM payment on its anniversary date, without having to wait a full 12 months from the time you assumed responsibility for the practice. You may not bill the CDM fees if a patient did not receive the requisite level of care, or a CDM fee code has been billed for the patient in the past 12 months.
