Can anyone tell me how OBGYN providers bill out a Medicare patient that comes in and has a full wellness exam done? We are obviously not the patients primary doctor.
Thank you,
 
Go to your Medicare page and look at the codes available to be billed for the patient. See if the Annual Wellness Exam is available (if you did the components of it).

Thank you,
I have attached a document on billing for the gyn annual exam which I put together for my clients a few years ago. The rules have not changed so it is current information. If you are also talking about Medicare preventive services that may also take place at this visit (such as the annual wellness exam), please refer to the the following on all of the preventive services they offer and how to bill (the site is interactive so you only have to click on the box that describes the service you are interested in: https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Preven...ntive-services/MPS-QuickReferenceChart-1.html
