I'm assuming you're asking if you can do another televisit within the 7 day period. If so, the answer is no since your original televisit has basically a 7 day global period attached to it. I would imagine that the exception would be if the patient contacted you regarding a problem not related to the problem evaluated in the first visit.

99212-99214 is not televisit but telehealth, if you meet the criteria for a telehealth visit. The 7-day window applies to patient-initiated phone calls for problems between appointments (and some payers are waiving that restriction), not for a telehealth visit.
