If a doctor makes a decision for a 90-day global surgery--carpal tunnel release-- Can he bill 99215? Can someone share their thoughts

He states that the diagnosis of carpal tunnel is a "chronic illness with severe exacerbation, progression or treatment side effects". I informed him that this column was for serious, life threatening issues but he still feels it's a high level. This is a standard CTS without no complicating issues.
Have you seen reference material regarding this?
