Good News/Bad News - Please Help!

[Guest guest]

Well, the good news is that I was approved by

Pacificare to see a doc for weight loss surgery.

The bad news is that it isn't Dr R!!!! It's

Ostroff, San Francisco.

The CPT code is: 99203

What does the 99203 stand for?

Thanks,

I think your about to get an Insurance Co. " Run-a-round: " CPT 99203

is for:

Nutrition Counseling

NEW PATIENT

99203 30 mins detailed history, detailed examination and medical

decision-making of low complexity

That's it.
