Our office is starting a Covid drive thru testing site. We will be collecting the samples and sending them to the lab for testing. No testing will be done onsite. I cannot find clear indication what is the appropriate E/M code that could be used. I used a similar service a few months ago. I drove in. They took my temperature. Asked me few questions as to why I needed the testing. Took the sample and I left. The site billed my insurance a 99203- which the insurance paid. Not sure this is/was appropriate. Tried to find some sort of information on what the appropriate E/M code for billing would be no that our own office is starting to provide this same service.
