Can the practice bill a patient for xray reading, if they are using a outside source they pay for? And if so, what code would you use?

The practice owns the equipment. We send it off to be read and pay for the reading. I didn't know if there was a code we could use to recoup some of the money we are paying.
I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand. The reimbursement for a xray is not very much if we are seeing a patient and we bill a 99213 and a 71046.
