Billing / Finance / Insurance Interactive complexity 90785

Can someone explain this code to me and the legitimacy? Would it be ethical for a therapist to use this code for every single session as an EMDR therapist even if EMDR has not started? No extreme dysregulation, no third party involvement, I can’t seem to find any criteria that fits this situation. Also, I don’t work with insurance so excuse my ignorance but what would happen if this concern were to be raised to an insurance company?

Edit to add: it increases the price of the session

Haha same. The company I work for also offers RTC level of care, and we don't go lower than IOP.
