Hi,

If a provider examines and prescribes in addition to performing (all for same dx) a procedure (shave biopsy), would -25 be supported?

Thanks,

The exam is part of the work of the procedure. The prescription could possibly be considered separate, although insurance companies may not be generous enough to all it. See the article "To 25 or not" at http://digital.ipcprintservices.com/publication/?i=164027&article_id=1431685&view=articleBrowser&ver=html5#{"issue_id":164027,"view":"articleBrowser","article_id":"1431685"}
