What 99427 covers

This code covers an additional 30 minutes of clinical staff work in principal care management for a patient with a single serious, complex chronic condition. The work centers on the condition-specific care plan and may include coordinating care with other clinicians, supporting medication management, and following up on changes that affect the patient’s disease. Clinical staff perform the work under a physician’s or other qualified health care professional’s direction, commonly as part of outpatient care for a condition that creates substantial risk of worsening or functional decline.

Report 99427 only after the initial clinical staff principal care management interval is represented by 99426. The record should identify the condition and care plan, describe the staff activities, and support the additional time counted during the calendar month. CMS classifies 99427 as an add-on code: it must be billed with a primary procedure and is paid within that procedure’s global period.

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.
