I was wondering if you can bill a 90801 for the same pt within the same group. This was within 2 months of each other. One provider is a CNS who handles the meds and the other is Psychologist who did another evaluation.
My understanding is that the 90801 code be treated as a new pt thing and the 2nd provider who seen the pt in the group should be going off her evaluation or am I way off?
I also think the CNS should be billing an 99404 which is a med management Diagnostic Eval per MA Medicaid MBHP plan, per there fee schedule.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
