Looking for guidance on appropriate use of Preventive Medicine coding vs. Problem Oriented Coding for GYN practices.
Would it be inappropriate to bill a preventive medicine code for a patient who presents for their yearly GYN physical? Or should you be billing a 99201-99215 as appropriate?
The information documented is as follows:
age and gender appropriate history,
examination that includes pap and breast,
counseling/anticipatory guidance/risk factors,
and orders as appropriate any associated lab or diagnositic procedures.
I appreciate any help anyone can give.
Thanks
