Does anyone have experience with billing for a pre-op clinic? We have just implemented a new outpatient clinic that our specialty practices (Ortho, General Surgery, Neurosurgery, etc.) will refer their surgical patient to for pre-op & surgery clearance. If a patient is high risk, they will see an MD or NP at the clinic. We will bill the appropriate E/M for those services. If a patient is not high risk, our RNs will complete all pre-op requirements. Is it possible to bill a 99211 for those services performed by the nursing staff?
Thanks!
Thanks!
