"This article was first published in the Winter 2025 issue of Critical Connections.

A split/shared visit in the United States is a method in which two practitioners split or share the patient encounter for the date of service. In the hospital setting, split/shared visits may be determined by either medical decision-making or time. However, in critical care, since time determines the code selected, only time is used for billing critical care. The aggregated practitioners’ critical care times determine whether CPT codes 99291 and/or 99292 may be billed.

Critical Connections, the critical care industry’s only newsmagazine, provides information on cutting-edge topics in critical care useful to the entire multiprofessional team."
