Hi there, i need to know exactly how specific my Dr. needs to be in documenting his time for a 99214 to be bumbed up to a 99215 based on time.
He states,
"40 minute visit with 50% spent on counseling patients medical conditions".
I was told this is not sufficient. He needs to document the exact time in minutes spent counseling, and then what exactly he counseled as well.
Does any one else have any input?
Thanks!
