Our obgyn docs also have employed midwives in the office. We are having a dispute in the office.
The docs are billing for a consult when they see a midwife patient (ie. visit in the office to discuss surgery, or hospital visit due to delivery complication).
I was always under the impression that you could not bill for a consult on an existing patient in your practice. Isn't this true. I really can't find anything literature on it, and I don't think the CPT book really addresses that.
Any help you could give me to show them would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
