Hi:
Could anyone let me know whether an established E/M code(99211-99215) can be coded in the follow-up period(within 7days) if the patient returns to the same doctor with different complaints than the previous,(e.g., patient was consulted 5 days back for asthma & respiratory problems and now presented with new complaint of stomach pain & gastro problems),
Thanks in advance
