If a PCP provider is billing based on time, they have an appropriate time statement but says something like I spent XX minutes of total time on the encounter today .... including suture removal would you accept the time statement? AMA states total time does not include any time spent in the performance of other separately reported service(s). Since 15853 is a practice expense only code would you accept the time statement? The provider did address other conditions during the encounter. I appreciate any additional information.
