Longer Telephone Consultation

South Carolina rates for HCPCS 99443

An extended telephone consultation with your own clinician about a medical problem, where the problem is discussed in detail, advice is given and a plan is agreed without an in-person visit. It applies when the call is not a follow-up to a recent visit for the same problem and does not lead straight to an appointment. The length of the call determines which version applies.
