3 Incident To & Shared Visits E and M Coding for: - New Office Visits - Established Office Visits - Consultation Visits Preventive Services - Tobacco - Home Health - AWV Discussion Points
4 Incident To & Shared Visit
5 Incident To Billing (office) Four standard criteria: 1.Physician must be in office 2.Must be an established patient 3.Must not change anything from previous plan of care 4.Doctor should see patient every 3 rd or 4 th visit (shows active participation)
6 Shared Visits (hospital) Two standard criteria: 1.NPP sees patient and documents note 2.MD sees patient and documents mini hx, exam and MDM on same date
7 E&M Coding
8 Code Selection Medical necessity of a service is the overarching criterion for payment in addition to the individual requirements of a CPT code. It would not be medically necessary or appropriate to bill a higher level of evaluation and management service when a lower level of service is warranted. The volume of documentation should not be the primary influence upon which a specific level of service is billed. Documentation should support the level of service reported. The service should be documented during, or as soon as practicable after it is provided in order to maintain an accurate medical record.

This lets the reviewer clearly see that who documented the medical record.
