High complexity new patient 99223?

I am looking for second opinion, please:


If the patient has Opioid addiction or dependence, and he is in rehab facility for Opioid addiction. He has history of using parenteral controlled substances. He is stable now, receiving treatment for dependence. (4 dx, 2 labs reviewed)Is the risk - High? MDM - high complexity? (history - comprehensive, exam - comprehensive, MDM -moderate or high? 99222 or 99223?). In my opinion it's 99222.

Thank you
