We have a new physician who is asking if they see a patient of another doctor (at the same practice) for say a female pap, pevlic and breast exam because this doctor is a female & the normal doctor is a male..can she charge a the visit as a consult? My feeling and opinion is "no" as they are credentialed the same and there is not a particular medical problem for the use of a "consult" code. Am I correct? Does anybody know?
