Hi,
In the office setting, if a provider orders wound care like dressing change and the patient comes in for a nurse visit, is there a specific code? This could be for a procedure down or already established ulcers/lesions. I was looking at the forums here and I've seen that just a 99211 is coded. Just wanted to know what others had to say. My boss thinks there is an actual code I should be using, but I'm almost positive it's included in the E&M codes.
Thank you!
