In 2021 the Evaluation and Management documentation guidelines for office and outpatient visits had major changes with the termination of the outdated 1995 and 1997 CMS guidelines. They were replaced with the new AMA guidelines where there are two ways in which the level of Evaluation and Management services are determined; Medical Decision Making or Time. After two years all other E/M services are being changed to use the same criteria as the office and outpatient visits making it consistent for all E/M services. Of course, there are some revisions to these guidelines to meet the needs for visits performed in the inpatient hospital, nursing home, and patient home, and for those insurance companies still recognizing consultations, too. All physicians and other qualified healthcare professionals, as well as staff, should understand what is needed as it relates to Medical Decision Making or Time. These are major changes that affect reimbursement that need to be implemented on January 1, 2023, and can be found in the 2023 CPT® manual.
