When a patient is sent to our behavioral health providers for a psych evaluation and testing prior to gastric surgery, which code is correct to use? Diagnostic Interview with testing or the health and behavior assessment/intervention codes?
 
I have been billing 90801+96101 for the testing portion.Now I am wondering if I should be billing 96150?I am sending to my dr to get his opinion.
