I work for a psychiatric clinic. Most of the times the patients are seen by physician assitants or social workers, as the doctor is away from facility.
Later these visits are billed under the doctor's supervision, Can the doctor bill those patients with CPT codes 90801 -90809 under his name when he is not seeing the patient face-to-face or when he is not even present in the facility.
Is there any set of modifiers which differentiates between psychiatric and non-psychiatric evaluation.
Please guide....
