What 99386 covers

This code describes a comprehensive preventive evaluation for a new patient who is 40 through 64 years old. The clinician takes an age- and sex-appropriate health history, performs a preventive examination, and provides counseling or anticipatory guidance and risk-reduction interventions. Primary care clinicians commonly report it in an office or outpatient setting for a routine preventive visit, rather than an evaluation focused only on a new symptom or illness.

Medicare assigns this code physician fee schedule status N, meaning Medicare does not cover the service under this code. It represents the preventive visit as a whole, not a separately performed screening test or a time-based service. Select the age-specific code based on the patient’s age and whether the patient meets the CPT definition of new to the clinician or group. The established-patient counterpart for the same age range is 99396.

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.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
