can a physician bill an insurance company with V76.51 just by referring patient to GI for colonoscopy. Physician diagnosis is screening colorectal cancer,
99213 250.00
V76.51
Under Assessment/Treatment Plan, he writes screening for colorectal cancer V76.51, chronic.Today's instructions/counseling includes referral to GI for screening colonoscopy.
I thought screening ICD-9 should be attached to a procedure code(something the doctor does- colonoscopy)
Please verify!
