A new patient is referred for evaluation and treatment, and based on imaging and medical documentation from the referring the provider performs an epidural steroid injection. Is it appropriate to bill a new patient E&M with modifier -25 in addition to the procedure to establish patient care or can the new patient E&M be billed when the patient returns for a follow up to the procedure?
