Are all 3 key elements of the E&M service required in order to be able to bill for an established patient, or could a physician skip one of them altogether :confused:and still be able to bill for an E&M?
 
Depends on the type of service

The answer to your question depends on the type of service provided - office visit? ER visit? hospital admission? subsequent hospital visit? consult? etc.

The answers are clearly spelled out in the CPT guidelines.
