A484 is the Rheumatology-specific version of the medical specific re-assessment (equivalent to A134 in Internal Medicine).

The Chronic Disease Assessment Premium (E078) is commonly billed with this code for patients with chronic rheumatologic conditions.

While the code A484 is listed as 'Medical specific re-assessment' in the primary Rheumatology table (A199), it is often associated with the 'Complex rheumatology assessment' commentary on page A200 which describes the management of complex musculoskeletal disorders.
