99420 Health Assessment

Hi. Our practice just started billing for the 99420 using a dx code of V79.0 (screening for depression) when a patient completes the depression screening questionnaire. It's an automated coding/billing process and happens even when the patient already has an established depression dx. Any thoughts on this? This is brand new to me and so far all insurances are denying as included in the EM service, which I expected, but nevertheless, it being new to me, I'd love some feedback on it from others who are billing for this service. Thanks!
