The only way to collect maximum income in 2024 is to perfect your use of new E/M add-on code G2211. This recently approved code can allow you to collect an additional $16 per E/M visit for Medicare patients, but only if you know the complex and evolving guidelines.
On top of that, the outpatient E/M descriptors have changed for 2024 — YES, again — and if you aren’t ready for the updates, your claims for codes 99202-99215 will be denied, which could cost you thousands in lost reimbursement.
