A few thoughts to consider if you haven't already reported the service. 30-74 minutes of prolonged service without direct patient contact is reported with code 99358. Not all plans will pay for this service but the code is intended for just this type of work. Use code 99452 only if the service is a consultation to get advice from the psychologist and psychologist. An interprofessional telephone/Internet/electronic health record consultation is an assessment and management service in which a patient's treating (eg, attending or primary) physician or other qualified health care professional requests the opinion and/or treatment advice of a physician with specific specialty expertise (the consultant) to assist the treating physician or other qualified health care professional in the diagnosis and/or management of the patient's problem without patient face-to-face contact with the consultant.
