Our provider was on call at hospital let orthopedic resident see pt in ER then the patient came into Doctors office for a " follow up". Since the provider didnt actually see pt in hospital we can bill out 99203 correct. Additionally, different pt same provider resident saw pt on 12/31/20 then doctor saw pt in hospital on 1/2/21 and performed surgery would you code as a new pt since the Doctor didnt acutally see the patient on 12/31/20? This is my first time working for a provider who lets the residents see the patient.
Any advise would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Mary
