    Wiki Molina is automatically downcoding office visits without requesting medical records.

    I do billing for an internal medicine physician who specializes in weight management. Most of his visits are coded as 99214 or 99215 + 99401 or 99402.

    Wiki Coding Based on Time

    I have a provider questioning the coding of time. For example a 99213 is 15 minutes and 99214 is 25 minutes. (I realize it has to be greater than these "typical" times with greater than 50% in counseling and coordination). The provider is saying if it is 21 minutes you would round up to the...
