# CPT 99310

> Medicare paid $152.46 for CPT 99310 in the office (non-facility) setting and $152.46 in a facility under the Q2 2024 Physician Fee Schedule, effective April 2024. These are the national allowed amounts before the ~2% sequestration cut and before locality (GPCI) adjustment. This price has been unchanged since Q1 2024, when it decreased 0.7%.

## What it is

The most involved of the nursing facility follow-up visits, for a resident who has become unstable or has developed a problem serious enough to threaten life or function. Decision-making is high complexity: weighing hospital transfer, managing several failing systems at once, or reconsidering goals of care with the family. It carries the longest expected time of the follow-up levels.
