MD did a drainage of abscess--30020. Less than 10 days later patient came in and was given the results of the fluid previously drained from same abscess by our MD.
The culture results showed as MRSA. The PA treated it by prescribing a new RX and billed 99214. She is from the same office as MD who did drainage of abscess.
Is this correct since MRSA is a new dx? Or postop only and non-billable?
thank you fellow coders
