Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 99347 covers

99347 is for an E/M encounter with an established patient in a home or residence. A physician or other qualified health care professional assesses the patient’s concern, evaluates relevant history and findings, and develops or updates a straightforward care plan. The setting may be a private home or another residence, such as an assisted living facility or group home. This is not the nursing-facility E/M service family.

Select the level by medical decision-making or, when using time, the clinician’s total time on the date of the encounter. The record should support straightforward MDM, or document at least 20 minutes when time determines the level. Include the patient’s relevant problem, assessment, and plan, and make clear that the service occurred in the home or residence. Report one E/M service for the encounter rather than treating the time threshold as a unit count.
