Hi - I talked to my billing person and what she told me is that 82962 gets denied when you use the routine physical code like Z00.00. Usually the patient has some other code that will pay on it like hypertension, hyperlipidemia or something and it gets paid if she adds that.
On a little bit different topic when you use the codes G0439 or G0438 (medicare wellness) nothing gets paid that day for other than the wellness visit, so don't try to bill for anything else that day (even labs) when you use that code.
