When a provider completes the CSSRS documents a PHQ-9 score our facility is adding CPT 96127. When the same provider documents a CRAFFT assessment
(CRAFFT - 1. Drink any alcohol (more than a few sips)? (Do not count sips of alcohol taken during family or religious events.), at the same visit, is it appropriate to also code 96160? So, on this visit, we would have the E/M level, 96127 and 96160. Can you code both 96127 and 96160 in the same visit? The patient is 15 years old.
