Provider wants to code a G0439 for the MDCR Wellness Visit plus a 99213 for his problems discussed and 17000 17003x4 for ak destruction. Do you feel the 99213 should be coded with the G0439. I thought the MDCR Wellness visit was to include all chronic and new problems the patient might be having. I'm okay with the G0439 and the destruction codes but I don't see how I can also code a 99213.

Hypertension Assessment/Plan:

The patient's hypertensive risk group is category B: At least one risk factor (excluding diabetes) with no target organ damage. Today's blood pressure is 142/78.


Lipid Assessment/Plan:

Based on NCEP/ATP III, the patient's risk factor category is "2 or more risk factors and a calculated 10 year CAD risk of > 20%". The patient's lipid goals have been set as follows: Total cholesterol goal is 200; LDL cholesterol goal is 100; HDL cholesterol goal is 40; Triglyceride goal is 150. His cholesterol goal has not been met. His HDL goal has not been met. His Triglyceride goal has not been met.

His BMI is calculated to be 38.90. The patient has triglyceride level over 150, an HDL less than 40 (male), and systolic blood pressure greater than 130. This meets the criteria for dysmetabolic syndrome. Recommended treatments for the dysmetabolic syndrome were discussed with the patient including weight management, regular exercise, better blood pressure control, and lipid management.
