What 99447 covers

99447 captures a remote consultation in which a treating clinician seeks another physician’s assessment of a particular patient’s care. The consultant reviews relevant records and discusses findings or management by telephone, internet, or electronic health record, then provides verbal and written feedback to the requesting clinician. For example, a primary care clinician may ask a cardiologist to review a patient’s clinical information and advise on management. The consultant reports the service; the treating clinician does not report 99447 for requesting the advice.

Choose 99447 when documented medical consultative review and discussion time totals 11–20 minutes. Record the request, material reviewed, discussion, recommendations, and report. The verbal and written report are integral to this consultation, not separate services under 99447. CMS physician fee schedule valuation includes physician work, practice expense, and malpractice; practice-expense valuation differs between office and facility settings.

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.

99447 billing questions

How does 99447 differ from 99446 or 99448?

Select by documented medical consultative review and discussion time: 99447 is for 11–20 minutes. The neighboring codes represent shorter or longer time bands.

Does 99447 include the consultant’s report?

Yes. The service includes verbal and written feedback to the treating or requesting clinician; those reports are not separate 99447 services.

What time should the record support?

Document the medical consultative review and discussion time that supports the 11–20-minute band, along with the records reviewed and advice given.

When would 99451 be considered instead?

99451 is the related interprofessional consultation option when reporting the consultant’s medical consultative time with a written report under that code’s criteria. 99447 represents the 11–20-minute discussion-and-review band and includes verbal and written feedback.

Who reports 99447?

The consulting physician reports it for the requested assessment and advice. The treating clinician who requested the consultation does not report 99447 for making the request.

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.
