Preventative medicine codes are meant only for the reporting of asymptomatic patients. In order to assign a preventative code, a comprehensive evaluation must be documented. The scope of a preventative visit depends both on the patient’s age and screening test (s) fitting the age of the patient.
In CPT, codes 99381–99397 for comprehensive preventive evaluations are age-specific, beginning with infancy and ranging through patients age 65 and over for both new and established office patients. Preventive medicine services are represented in evaluation and management (E/M) codes section of CPT. These E/M codes may be reported by any qualified physician or other qualified healthcare professional, i.e. NP, APP or PA.
Preventive visits, like many procedural services, are bundled services. Unlike documenting problem-oriented E/M office visits (99201–99215), which involves complicated coding guidelines, documenting preventive visits is more straightforward. The following components are needed: 1 A comprehensive history and physical exam findings; 2 A description of the status of chronic, stable problems that are not “significant enough to require additional work,” according to CPT; 3 Notes concerning the management of minor problems that do not require additional work; 4 Notes concerning age-appropriate counseling, screening labs, and tests; 5 Orders for vaccines appropriate for age and risk factors.
The preventive comprehensive exam differs from a problem-oriented comprehensive exam because its components are based on age and risk factors rather than a presenting problem. Coverage of preventive visits varies by insurer, so it is important to be aware of the patient’s health plan.
