Hello,
We are having an inter-office difference of opinion on whether a time based statement for a E5 encounter fulfills the guidelines to charge by time or not, does this statement meet requirements to charge 99215 based on time? The note contains all of the counseling details and the dx to support.
“I spent 40 minutes in counseling and coordination of care with > 50% of that time spent in face to face consultation”
Thanks for your help with this one!
