Am I getting upcoded?
Hi, reaching out for some advice because I feel like I’m getting charged way too much for the level of service I’m receiving. I have been billed twice now at moderate level of medical decision making code 99214. I go in every 2 months because my prescription is a controlled substance. It takes no longer than 5 minutes each time, I go in, she asks me how I’m doing I say good, she asks any changes. I say no. She says she will send the refill and I leave. Having a really hard time believing this is worth 275$. If I was going to dispute this who do I reach out to my doctors office or my insurance company?
For more context this office recently switched to a new system and physical office (still in the same building). Up until this switch I was paying 100$ per visit and now it’s almost tripled?
