Hello,
I have two questions I'm trying to get an answer to asap. My provider is asking me two things...
1. The provider took an after hours on call phone call for a patient and spent a lot of time talking with her. Is there a code to bill this type of service? To reflect all the time taken?
2. If 15 minutes were spent with a caregiver in the office, can that service be coded? The patient was not seen, only the doctor discussing things with the caregiver.
Thank you in advance for any guidance.
