Patient has major 90 day global surgery by neurosurgeon as IP. After surgery, pt was discharged from IP hospital, location 21, and transferred to Rehab hospital, location 61, where pt was followed by rehab/physical medicine physician. Workers' Comp is denying the Rehab physician's charges for global to the surgery.
Is this correct, that a separate specialty may not bill in the post op period, for the same Dx as the surgery?
