Hello,
We are having problems with billing professional fees for EKGs and Echos interpretations. When the MD's bill for the fee they only have the diagnosis codes that the patients is either in the hospital for or going to have surgery for. These codes are clearly not related to any cardiology studies and are all bing denied for diagnosis cross walk errors. My question is does anyone know of a universal code for Medicare to cover Interpretations in itself?
