Hi,
According to CPT manual, 99211 is used when an established patient receives an evaluation and management service, typically for 5 minutes, that does not necessarily require a physician or other qualified health care professional to see the patient. All nursing staff (RNs, LPNs, CMAs) are eligible to use the 99211 code. Services provided by RNs, LPNs and CMAs must be those that fall under the scope of care as stated by their individual licensing requirements.
In above mentioned scenario, CMA is providing instructions for home sleep study equipment usage and it qualifies for the use of CPT 99211.
