The code for an annual physical exam is typically represented by the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code 99396 for established patients and 99385 for new patients. These codes may vary based on specific circumstances or additional services provided during the exam. It's essential to consult the most recent coding guidelines or a medical coding professional for the most accurate information.
The physical exam (code 99397) has never been covered by Medicare. Further, the Medicare Annual Wellness Visit (AWV) services clearly do not include an exam.
The ICD-10 code for an annual physical exam is Z00.00, which denotes an encounter for a general adult examination without any reported or suspected conditions. This code is used when a patient visits a healthcare provider for a routine check-up. It's important to note that this code is applicable when there are no specific health issues being addressed during the visit.
The CPT code for a follow-up visit after an annual physical exam typically depends on the specific nature of the visit. For a standard follow-up, the code could be 99212 to 99215, depending on the complexity of the visit. However, if the follow-up is related to a specific diagnosis or condition, other codes may be more appropriate. Always consult the most recent CPT codebook or guidelines for accurate coding.
