Hello,
I have a quick question regarding E/M coding by time. If an established outpatient patient was seen for a total visit time of 35 minutes and more than 50% was spent counseling etc., could I code a 99215 which is for visits of 40 minutes or must I code a 99214 - for visits of 25 minutes?
Thank you for you help.
