I meant outpatient visit. My PCP is in the main campus of the hospital, and I wasn’t being rigorous with the terminology.
I’m using the CPT codes within the site I linked to. 99211–99215 are the codes that correlate to acuity, with 99215 being the most acute. I am aware of other systems like level 1 vs level 2 trauma centers. In that case, yes the level 1 is higher acuity. Maybe that’s what you were thinking of?

I’m more familiar with the (pre-)hospital triage scales in non-US countries: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triage#Canada https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triage#Canada
