I appreciate your help. Can I ask another question. I was told that I can only use E codes on the E/M. Is that true or can I use the E codes with the other procedures that are being billed out?
E codes can be used with other CPT codes as well, not just E/M codes. E codes should only be used during an initial visit/treatment unless you are using 'late effects' E codes for subsequent visits. It can also never be a principal diagnosis.
