What is the difference between a limited patient visit, an intermediate visit and an extended visit?
A limited patient visit is one where the member is seen for a problem-focused visit with minor problems (physician time 10 minutes), i.e. recheck for a cold. An intermediate patient visit is more involved with low to moderate severity, and will require a longer visit with the provider, i.e. sore throat. An extended patient visit is where the member is having a physical examination or consultation for a chronic illness or consideration for surgery, etc. (moderate to high severity).
