I need a code for a yearly gyne exam that medical assistance recognizes.
I need a code for a yearly gyne exam that medical assistance recognizes.
Annual gynecologic exams for asymptomatic patients should be billed using preventive medicine codes 99383 – 99387 for new patients or 99393 – 99397 for established patients. Please note the Pap smear is considered part of the office visit, and may only be billed by the laboratory that reads and interprets the test. The appropriate evaluation and management codes to be used for symptomatic patients are 99201 - 99205 for new patients or 99211- 99215 for established patients.
