CPT code 99367: Team conference, physician, patient absent2026 Medicare rate & RVUs

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

What 99367 covers

This service reports a physician’s participation in a multidisciplinary care conference about a shared patient. The patient and family are not present, and the conference lasts at least 30 minutes. Participants use the discussion to coordinate clinical care or plan services. The code distinguishes physician participation from nonphysician professional participation in the team-conference code family. Physicians report it for qualifying conference work in care-planning settings.

Medicare assigns 99367 physician fee schedule status B. Medicare never pays it separately; payment is included in payment for other services. The code’s criteria include physician participation, the patient and family’s absence, and a conference lasting at least 30 minutes. A conference with the patient or family present, or one without physician participation, is represented by a different team-conference code.
