I am wondering what other practices are doing for child sex abuse/suspected abuse visits in the sense of the correct level of service to bill. I have been generally billing a 99205/99215 due to the level of decision making involved on the exam, coordination of care (speaking with Forensic Examiner, DCFS, law enforcement, etc), counselling, and the medical decision making involved in this presentation/diagnosis. Our providers are wonderful in documenting all that is involved examination and discussions, but I am wondering what other practices are doing for this situation level of service wise and their rationales.

Can anyone share their advice/expertise on this matter? Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you :)
