Guidelines for a trauma activation fee can be charged to a patient?

:confused:Can you provide guidelines that state when (at what time) a trauma activation fee can be charged to a patient? Can G0390 be charged when pre-notification is received but the trauma team does not end up convening and working on a patient? Can G0390 be charged only when pre-notification is received? I looked at NUBC guidelines Pub 100-04, Chap 25, 75.3 and that is not what I am looking for. Hoping you can help! Thank you!
