Can anyone help me with this. Have a patient that had I&D of cyst. He is out of post-op days. Physician is still having patient come in for repacking. Would these followup visits be just an E/M level?
 
Yes, if the post-op days are up then an e/m needs to apply. Unless he re-opens the cysts and does another I&D then you can charge it again and the global days will start again.
