99235 is the CPT code for observation or inpatient hospital care, for the evaluation and management of a patient including admission and discharge on the same date, which requires 3 key components: a comprehensive history, a comprehensive exam, and medical decision making of moderate complexity. Counseling and/or coordination of care with other providers or agencies are provided consistent with the nature of the problem and the patients and/or family's needs.
