Wondering if when billing for Physical understanding that lifestyle counseling ,and age approriate health screening ,etc are elements of Physical. Can a seperate CPT code be used for Tobacco abuse couseling when time spent is documented is the required 3-10 minutes?This of course is for a patient who does smoke
It's one thing to counsel regarding lifestyle choices and risk of same for those who do not smoke .For those who already smoke the focus is different with discussion of medications,goals support grups etc.
Hoping for some direction
