Can I Get Paid for…a Problem Oriented Visit and Wellness Visit on the Same Day

Patients who come into the office for a physical or wellness visit often have a problem they want to discuss, or chronic conditions that need to be assessed and managed. When do these problem oriented discussions rise to the level of an additional problem oriented office visit?

This brief video will guide you about when to add on an additional problem oriented visit.

CodingIntel members, you can watch our webinar Preventive medicine and Medicare wellness visits with an E/M for an in-depth discussion of this topic.
