We are 4 months new at billing Pacemaker/ICD insertions at the hospital and then having to deal with the whole Global deal.
I think I need some more info on this if anyone can give me some pointers.
I understand that there is a 90 day global period, which means that any office visit in reference to this surgery is considered global and should not be billed to the insurance, but what happens if, for example, a hematoma at the site of implant developes?? Or anything else for that matter?? Does it then become billable?
