Good Morning.
Does anyone have any case samples of codes 98966-98968 that they can share? for example-
What types of non physician providers (RNs eligible?) and what the phone call should consist of, beside time, to be eligible to bill it? What criteria meets the term- "Assessment and management"
Thanks!
