I advised our Internal Med specialists that they can perform and bill for an AWV and a problem-oriented visit at one of their patient's regular f/u visits for their chronic problems. They're hesitant to do this because of the fear of raising flags and being considered an outlier, and sparking an audit. My guess is that this would be a relatively common practice in an internal medicine practice. But I don't know if there have been increased audits on a national basis for providers billing problem-oriented E/M's with an AWV. Does anyone have any info about this?
