What 99308 covers

Physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants report 99308 for a subsequent evaluation of a resident in a skilled nursing facility or nursing facility. The encounter may address ongoing conditions, a new uncomplicated illness, or a change in care needs. Managing two stable chronic illnesses can support the problem element of low medical decision making (MDM), but the overall MDM level depends on at least two of its three elements. Work may include reviewing nursing observations, examining the resident, discussing care with facility staff, and updating treatment orders.

Select 99308 when the documented MDM is low or the reporting practitioner spends at least 20 minutes on qualifying work on the encounter date. Count the practitioner's face-to-face and non-face-to-face E/M work, including chart review, staff discussions, orders, and documentation; exclude facility staff time and time spent on separately reported services. Document the problems and management decisions supporting MDM or the total time supporting time-based selection. Medicare uses the facility rate for place of service (POS) 31, skilled nursing facility, and the nonfacility rate for POS 32, nursing facility.
