Coding Cues: Medical Economics

Good and informative updates on Office Visits...99214 and others...and information relative to anesthesia services...BD 

But if you didn't spend more than half the visit on counseling, and the encounter exceeded the typical time for a particular level of service by at least 30 minutes, it would be appropriate to use the prolonged care codes (99354 or 99355). These codes are add-on codes, so they're reported in addition to the E&M code.
