I recieved a superbill for a patient whos wife came
in in his place, as he was having an anxiety attack,
and was unable to leave home. They registered her
as him, the doc wrote a prescription for the man, and
put a 99214 E&M on it. Can we bill for this? To top
it off, he is a Medicare patient.
Thanks!
 
To bill Medicare the patient must be present. That's all the farther I'm getting into this one. Sounds like more issues than is Medicare billable.:confused:
