There has been a lot of controversary as of late as to whether we can or cannot bill for Injection Administration Fees. I wanted to bring it to all the professionals here for a roundtable - Here is our concern:
We are a Family Practice Clinic. We have several patients that come into our office with common ailements such as sinusitus, allergies, congestion, etc. After examination of the patient many of our providers give injections such as Rocephen, Decadron, etc. to treat them.
These injections occur while the patient is in the clinic and the medicine is purchased and administered by the clinic.
OUR QUESTIONS ARE: Can we bill for the medication and administration fee in these instances? If so, please explain in your prospective how you feel these fees should be properly billed.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide.
