The Unlisted E/M Visit ( 99499) is the safest code to use. However, if you do happen to perform a regular E/M visit at the same time, use the unlisted code and bill the E/M service with modifier 25. One thing to note is that DOT exams should not be billed to the medical insurance.
It would be inappropriate to use E/M office visit codes as these require all the components of a 'sick' visit (e.g., chief complaint, PFSH, Exam, and Medical Decision Making) which do NOT fit the DOT exam.

The Unlisted E/M Visit ( 99499) is the safest code to use.
