I am very new to coding/billing for the optometry practice I currently work for since April of this year. They have been billing insurance for contact lenses and/or glasses prior to actual pickup. To me this feels wrong. I would think that you shouldn't bill for a product the patient does not have. The argument is "that's how its always been done" and "but they've given us permission to order and bill insurance prior to pickup".
Can someone give me some guidance on this issue?
Thanks,
Amber
