I have seen this asked before but I cannot find it now. I have multiple peds in our group. If anyone of them sees a newborn in the hospital can they charge a new patient in the office?
 
If it's same specialty and subspecialty as the provider who saw the newborn in the hospital and its the same group practice its an established patient. Place of service of the face to face encounter isn't a factor in determination. This is straight from the E&M section of the CPT manual.
