HI! I am having a hard time justifying why we should bill a 99211 for a COVID swab when we don't have any vitals, or any other elements of a nurse visit. Basically the note is just a means to put the order in for the swab and the pt is swabbed in a parking lot or sent to a lab. The pt might not even be sick, might just need the test preprocedural, school, ect. Is anyone billing 99211 for the swab?
