Wiki Clarification of billing readmits

Can someone clarify when we can bill readmits during a global and when we can't. Can you give me some sort of guideline to follow?

My impression is:
1) If the readmit is related to the surgery then no cant bill
2) if the readmit is NOT related, then we can bill.

Is this correct?
