    "description": "A low-to-moderate complexity visit for a patient the practice has not seen recently — for example, a new patient establishing care for a stable condition or presenting with a single uncomplicated problem, such as seasonal allergies. Total visit time typically runs about 30 to 44 minutes; new-patient visits generally take longer than an established-patient visit at the same level because no prior chart exists to build on.",
