Hello,
I am very confused on coding a well visit w/ a problem.
For example: pt comes in for 7 year physical doc hits all preventative issues, exam,counseling etc. On same note in exam says head itch.
Assesment and plan says WELL but also doc gave script for lice.
Do I do 99393 & E&M
another example.
two month physical everything is covered for preventative.. IN same note on physical exam states white blisters on tongue. Doc assesment and plan says well and he gave a script.
Some people are saying these are straight 99214's others are saying preventative and 99212..I am so confused.
Any help would be appreciated
