Abstract

The article explains the uses of consultation codes. According to the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) requirements, a consultation code may be used if the referral came from another health care professional or an appropriate source such as a social worker. If the referral came from a relative or a friend, one may choose between one of the evaluation and management service codes or one of the general ophthalmological service codes.
