    "description": "A follow-up house call to a known patient where the judgment involved is moderately complex — several chronic conditions being managed together, one of them not fully controlled, or a new problem that needs tests and a medication change. It is the workhorse level for home-based primary care, sitting between the routine check and the visit for a genuinely unstable patient.",
