Hi,

A patient comes in for a cosmetic lesion removal. The physician does a complete E&M work up and determines that lesion is benign and can be removed cosmetically. Are we able to bill the insurance for the E&M as well as charge the patient for the cosmetic removal?

Thanks,
 
But if the lesion was not sent out to lab but it is obviously benign can we still charge for both? Cosmetic removal to patient and e/m to insurance?
