Time Based Billing

When the Physician notes that he/she spent 20 minutes with the patient and 15 was spent in counseling and coordination of care (Subsequent IP) --> 99231

Yet the HPI, Exam and MDM = 99233

DO YOU HAVE TO BILL BASED ON TIME, JUST BECAUSE IT'S NOTED? Or can you pick and choose which one is higher RVU ($$)?
