If a patient comes in and only gets a pap smear or a re-pap for whatever reason. What is the appropriate E/M code to bill? I am thinking, and documentation suppports a level 3 but I have providers charging a level 2. What are everybody's thoughts on this? Thanks.
 
I would have to see the documentation. But a good rule of thumb is to go by the level of medical decision making. If there are only there for a pap/re-pap. Then it would seem straightforward to me, supporting the level 2.
