What are the rules on patients coming in for a refill of a medication that they've been taking, same dose, same drug. Sometimes they're controlled meds like pain meds, or ADD meds.

For example:
Assessment: ADD - 314.00
Plan: Adderall

The CC and HPI state: Patient is in for ADD, Adderall is working great, no adverse effects.

Vitals were taken, ROS is complete, Exam is complete

Can you bill an OV based solely on a refill of the same drug a patient has been on?:confused:
 
yes, you have to bill office visit as the provider did the complete exam, ROS is complete and having a plan regarding the condition. he must be paid for his service provided as it is extended one.
If it is just a refill it doesnt need the complete exam, ROS is complete and a prescription for the condition.
