About new patient office visit (about 45 minutes)

CPT 99204 is a new-patient office visit of moderate complexity, around 45 minutes: several problems, a chronic condition being evaluated, or a decision about prescription treatment. It is the most commonly billed new-patient level in specialty practices.

What the price covers

When listed by a hospital, this is the price at a hospital-owned clinic or outpatient department, which may add a facility fee on top of the clinician's professional fee. Tests, imaging and procedures are separate.

Why prices vary

The same 45 minutes with a physician can cost two or three times more at a hospital-owned practice than at an independent one, mostly because of the facility fee. Within hospitals, prices follow system size. Cash prices are usually well below gross charges.
