Hi All,
I need clarifications on when? how? and what are the documentations needed in order to bill these codes?
1.) When?
Is it true that we could add these codes with Preventive Visits- 99381-99397?
2.) How?
How many times that we could use these codes?
3.) What? Documentations needed?
a.) Does the provider needs to document that; " I spent mins? counseling on how to .....etc.
or
b.) Is it okay to bill for 99401 if the provider DON'T document the TIME spent counseling on...etc.
Pls. HELP and THANKS
