What 99366 covers

99366 represents an interdisciplinary care conference conducted face to face with the patient, with or without family, by a participating nonphysician qualified health professional. The team brings together health care professionals from different disciplines to discuss the patient's care and coordinate their contributions. The conference is a team service, rather than a routine patient visit or a meeting held without the patient. It is reported when the conference lasts 30 minutes or more.

Medicare assigns this code physician fee schedule status B: payment is bundled, and Medicare never pays 99366 separately. The related conference codes distinguish meetings without the patient or family: 99367 is reported by a physician, while 99368 is reported by a nonphysician health professional. Documentation should identify the participants and disciplines, conference duration, and patient attendance; include family attendance when applicable.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.
