Since there is no "global period" for simple laceration repairs, can a doctor charge an office visit and a copay when the patient comes in for suture removal? Under the codes 12001-12021 it doesn't say anything about "global surgery package". Wheras under codes 11400-11446 lesion removal it states "global surgery package definition"?
ps, this question would be for the same doctor doing the procedure or another doctor. Thanks
ps#2 I have asked this question in the past and gotten have two different answers. So I wanted to see if there was an "updated" answer.
