A friend of mine went to a dr and she was billed 99214+99354.
How can they bill a prolonged service when they havent even used the highest level of em(99215) first?
My way of thinking is they would have to first code the 99215 and then if it was atleast 30 minutes beyond the time of the 99215 code, then bill the prolonged.
Am I wrong??? CPT assistant seems to support my thoughts as well.
