Any help is appreciated. Scenario: A patient has surgery, is discharged, and readmitted for a new but related problem. Our MD performed the surgery and we are requested to consult on the new problem. The patient is in their global period. Can we perform the consult and can bill for the new problem? Can we bill for a consult if it is related to the issue they had surgery for? Also, can we bill subsequent visits when the patient is still in a global period?
