Volume 23, Number 2Coding CornerCoding Corner: Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System Code G2211, Visit Complexity Inherent to Evaluation and ManagementJonathan RubensteinMark PainterCeleste KirschnerFor this issue, we reviewed the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) level 2 code G2211. Though the code has existed for a few years, Medicare began reimbursing physicians for reporting the code in January 2024. The code is used to describe the complexity of an evaluation and management (E&M) visit associated with an ongoing, longitudinal care relationship, focusing on a circumstance rather than a specific service. The circumstance described in this code differs from the prolonged services described by Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes 99358 through 99418; the case management services described by CPT codes 99366 through 99368; and the chronic care management services described by CPT codes 99490, 99491, and 99437 through 99489:Benign prostatic hyperplasiaEvaluation and management servicesCurrent Procedural Terminology codes
