The question that did not make any sense, is exactly as I asked it. I had a patient come in for a pre-op and the doctor is also coding a preventive visit with it, because the patient wanted a physical, but I did not think you could charge both. I wanted to double check with someone that knew for sure so I could explain it to the Physician.I write this respectfully, your question doesn't make any sense.
If there coming in for Pre-Op visit requested from a surgeon. Then just code the Consult CPT codes. You can't code both of these codes together.
