Could I charge anything along with an annual for counseling on fertility done at the same time as an annual? The discussion was for same sex couple trying to conceive
Reviewed CARS and poss IUI and looking at sperm banks and eventual having a subscription to gather info about poss donors. Reviewed open donors and sibling registries. She notes gaining weight during the pandemic and back on track with diet and going to the gym. Has a pcp now and working on cholesterol. She would like to optimize health prior to conception. Reviewed PNV prior to conception as well. Reviewed option of weight loss drugs to help as well.

And stated again..

No. This counseling falls into the realm of risk factor reduction services which are included in all preventive medicine codes. If the patient had presented only for preconception counseling then the code 99401-99404 would be reported instead.
