We have a patient who came for a well visit, received a flu shot, and ended up with a UTI, so the visit was also a sick visit. A urinalysis was done, a pap smear, and the patient was counseled about stopping to smoke.
How would we code/bill this visit to get everything/maximum payment for this claim? The doctor feels that it should be a well and a sick visit, as she spent enough time with this patient for both. There are dx's to support all the procedures...
99396, 99213, 90656, 90471, Q0091, 81003, 99000, 99406. Where would modifiers go in order for this to get maximum payment, and which modifiers would be appropriate?
Thanks!
