I have been presented with the above scenario and am in a quandy on how to handle this. At first, I just thought it would be easy enough - combine the times and submit on one claim. But...the patient was first seen by the hospitalst and he provided CC services for 45 minutes while awaiting the intensivist to answer his call. Intensivist came and provided another 45 minutes. They use the same NPI for billing, and are credentialed as the same specialty. It is proposed to have the first MD bill 99291 and the second bill separately with 99292! (Scrape me off the floor now after hearing that suggestion!) But...in order for each of them to get their RVU credit, how do we go about this?
Thanks
