You will have to excuse my question. I am currently not doing coding and may not know if things have changed in the past 4 years. When an ER Dr requests a consult is the consulting physician allowed to use the ROS, EXAM
Family and social history from the exam of the ER Dr. This was for a gastro consult. This is a personal question as I am disputing a level 4 consult done on my husband. We did not want the procedure he recommended and I asked that he call me. He went to see my husband and saw him for less than 3 minutes. I have his progress notes and the written letter that he generated (all this information was obtained from the ER Dr. notes)
Thanks for your help and I wonder why our health care is rising, as far as I can see this is an example of upcoding and fraudulent billing.
