If a call comes through at 0654 but by the time the doctor attended the patient, it was 0706, can the urgent after hours item still be claimed?

Context

We are emergency physicians and claim the urgent after hours video item 92211. We recently had a scenario when a call came through at 0654 but by the time the doctor saw the patient it was 0706. Can we still claim that as item 92211?
