Consultation with family member without patient
I have a scenario whereby the patient is deceased. His daughter had a consultation with his physician to go over why his death was sudden,
15/30min spent with the duaghter. What will be the CPT® and DX for this
scenario?

Bill the discharge code by time or if it meets critical care, then the counseling with family would be included in that if it is documented properly.
