I have an OB visit that was denied. A 99385 was billed for a new patient along with 99213-25 on the same day. The 2018 CPT book states on page 36 that if a problem or abnormality is significant enough to require additional work, then the appropriate Office/Outpatient code 99201-99215. Can 99203-25 be billed with the 99385 since it is the same date of service and it is a new patient? Or is only one "new patient" procedure code allowed? Insurance denied Z31.41 with the 99213-25 even though the additional time spent was for infertility testing.

Any help is greatly appreciated! :)
