With the new guidelines for 2021 when choosing an E&M level between the 99213 and 99214. When someone has 2 acute problems (ex. otitis media and hives) for the number and complexity of problems addressed would that be a low or moderate? We were having some group discussion and wanted to clarify this part. Thanks for any guidance.
 
That would be low - 99213. It doesn't matter how many acute, uncomplicated problems someone has, the complexity is the same. Think about it logically.
