Can anyone tell me what is the proper way to handle the following:
Pt. came in for medical illness diagnosis and had also hurt his finger. Days later, Burea of Worker's Comp called and said that the finger was to be submitted as BWC claim. Primary carrier is Medical Mutual and claim has already gone out with tinea corporis as primary diagnosis and finger pain as secondary. Can you bill one office visit to medical and one to BWC on same date of service. There will be separate charts with documentation to reflect both diagnoses. Thank you.
