We submitted a claim to Medicare for a new patient visit and it was denied. This claim was for Pain Management we also are Anesthesiologist practice under the same tax ID #. The patient was given anesthesia for a surgical procedure earlier in the month. The dx for the office visit was unrelated to the anesthesia.
When I read the new patient requirements I agree with the denial others in my office say they should of paid it.
Please advise.
