CPT Codes 99358 & 99359 – Who may report?

Posted on by
Which types of providers may report CPT codes 99358 & 99359, Prolonged Services Without Direct Patient Contact?

Are these codes reserved for Physicians, NPs, PAs, etc. or can they be used by Clinical Social Workers and Clinical Psychologists?

If they can be used by Clinical Social Workers and Clinical Psychologists, would it be appropriate to use in conjunction with CPT Codes 98966-98968 for prolonged telephone services provided directly to a patient?

Thanks.

I would ask the same question with the review being on a separate date of service. How do we make sure there is no double dipping
