if this is an est pt then all the information for the interview has been gathered I would think. The guidelines say: Psychiatric diagnostic interview exam includes a history, mental status, and a disposition , and may include communication with family or other sources, ordering and medical interp of laboratory or other medical diagnostic studies. If you have been using 90806 and this is a return pt (f/u) and evaluation and mgmt services were provided why wouldn't you use 90807? This is not my speciality - but thought it was interesting and would like to know the answer myself. Will check back to see what comes of this.
