Hi,
I am not sure how this should be billed. No one in office knows answer. I hope I can get some quick insight here. Patient is an inpatient at hospital and has been charged for a consult with decision for surgery made now midlevel provider is doing a brief follow-up (99231) the day before surgery. Would that be considered global and should be billed out as a 99024 or is it okay to bill the 99231.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Micki
